January 29 ~Moving Day~

The Big Day....sigh



Well, it was a typical Syracuse wintery day. The temps were in the single digits and the wind chill made it crazy cold. The movers finished up around 3:30. Curt and I cleaned..and cleaned..and then loaded up. It was around 6:00 pm when we finally got on the road. Curt took the trailblazer, the girls and the carrier and I had the dogs with me. As if it hadn't already been the most exhausting day and week, we had an 8 hour drive ahead, and that is in ideal weather conditions. I almost cried when we got on the thruway. The roads were treacherous and there were white-outs in areas. It took us forever to get to Rochester but by the time we hit Buffalo, the weather improved and we were able to make up time.
We made it to Findlay around 3:00 am. Wow..not quite sure how I did it but don't want to do it again! The movers actually arrived the next day and it went smoothly from there. Much easier moving in...and we were settled by Sunday night.

  1. Oh Steph- we miss you all! The girls ask daily when they can see Olivia and Ava again. The days are longer and loanlier (sp) knowing you are so far. It's weird to see pics of the house packed as we unexpectedly missed those last days with you all. Much love and happiness in your new beginning... post some pics of the apt so we can see you in your new life :)
