Moving - i do not like it :(

I always remember how much i don't like it in the mist of doing it.  Our home right now, as I type this post, is filled with packed boxes, bags, and things that need to be put in boxes or bags.  On friday we get the keys to our new apartment and on saturday morn i will take Josiah to a sweet friends house for her to watch him and i will head to clean our new apartment while the men folk load our things into a Uhaul.  Afterward, they will unload the truck and i (along with friends that I will love forever) will begin a journey, of at least a week, of unpacking.  I sooooo want to be excited about this but a sista is tired - so pray my strength.

However, I am excited about this great place the Lord has provided us with and I'm excited about this blank canvas that i will get to decorate on a budget (one of my hobbies).  I'm excited about downsizing since the apartment is smaller. We have and are giving away so much stuff but i think i will upack things, realized there is no place for it and give away more stuff. Pray for strength to just let go of stuff.

Oh! - we celebrated something really fab last week -"Our 4 year Anniversary".  Here's a pic of us after a date to a tapas restaurant (on Sundays they have 1/2 off). Yes we look tired - can you imagine celebrating your anniversary in the mist of a move -crazziness, but we made it happen and had fun.
