Moving day was a little more than we planned for - the last little things are the worst - the hardest to pack and they seem to multiply! It was a stressful long day - but I will say this for the kids and The Pooch - they were so patient and good!! They helped with the packing and cleaning in PA and when we really needed them out from under foot... they are sat at the table and played games (or napped in The Pooch's case...) After hours of work at the house in PA, we took the 3 1/2 drive to NJ to start the job of unpacking. Thankfully my cousin took the kids for the night which was so helpful!! We were also blessed with help from a neighbor, her daughter, and her mother - who came over unsolicited and just started grabbing boxes! Then my cousin's son and his friend came and helped get all of the heavy furniture up and in. It was a long day - it was hot - it was stressful - but were lucky to have some help - from the kids, technology, family, and friends!
