Moving Day for Ann-Marie & Brett

WHAT A DAY IT WAS---from morning to night. But thankfully all the big items got moved into their apartment so they could start living in their new "HOME". One is always so greatful for the help they can get. Several of the men from Morningstar were able to give some of their time to help. Since there was not a rented U- Haul, it took many trips back and forth. But we were also thankful that the apartment was only one mile away.

There were several ladies who came later and helped with taking items out the freezer and frig. I tell you when you go from a two story house to a two bed apartment, you appreciate all the help.
Of course with all that lifting and lots of calories burned, one needed to stop and enjoy a sandwich from subway.


Above we have Gary and Brett putting the bed together in the apartment.



We were all so thankful to my sister Linda, who is here from France, to stay at the apartment and take care of Sam. She was also able to unpack lots and lots of boxes with items for the kitchen. Oh and we don't want to forget to thank her for getting supper for us later that evening. Thanks Linda.
It was indeed a very busy, exhausting day for everyone. At night while I was sleeping, if I had to move from on position to another my body ached. But I have to say I love their new apartment.
Sam seems to feel right at HOME!
We still have things yet to finished up at the house, but it will get done. As Gary always say, "Get it done!" And he does just that!!!
Just want Ann-Marie, Brett and Sam to enjoy this new avenue in their life. After all...Home is really where they are TOGETHER.

Wow, moving is a lot of work, but it's always so nice when people help out and when it's all DONE!
