The big move

Jake and I have been living in my parents' basement since Jake got his new job last May. My parents were nice enought to let us live there as long as we needed to. We've been trying to sell our home in Logan but it just wasn't happening so we decided to keep it and rent it out so that we could move out to our own place. We moved a couple weeks ago and that's why I've been so behind on blogging. We are now living in a fun little townhome in Cottonwood Heights. Here are some pictures from our move. They aren't the best but it's all I've got.


My parents came up to Logan to help us load the moving truck Friday night. Jake just wanted to use a truck and trailer but I insisted on renting a truck. It's a good thing we did because we ended up filling the whole thing! Who knows where all that stuff comes from?


Here's a picture of the empty "pit." Granted there are some things we will never miss about that place but all-in-all it was a wonderful home for us and we made lots of fun memories there.


My mom and dad, uncle Scott, and cousins Rob and Scooter came to help us unload the truck Saturday morning. They saved us loads of time and we owe them big time! Thanks, guys!


Here we are after the unloading was finished. Next is the fun part--unpacking and organizing! This was my first big move and I've come to realize that I am about the worse packer and unpacker in the world! Thank goodness for Jake or else nothing would have gotten done. I hope we don't have to move very often!

We are so excited to be living in Salt Lake again close to lots of family and friends! If any of you are ever in the neighborhood please stop by anytime!

That's fun to be in a townhouse. I guess you own it right? I can't wait to come see it. It's hunting season, so it might be a little while before we can stop by. :) But hopefully soon, plus the jacket...

Hey, I haven't checked blogs in a while. Great place, it's great to get out of the parents' house, huh?
