Our House

Hey everyone! I have decided on a new blog name but you are going to have to wait to see what it is. The name will be reveled on June 10th as we are driving to MN. For now I wanted to post some pictures of our house. It has changed over the 5 years we have owned it but this is how we will remember it.

We have loved living here over the years but we learned how hard it is to be a home owner. There is always something to do or work on when you own a home. We have loved having our own place but I will be happy to be renting again. We will buy a home again someday.... just not so soon.

The Plan

We are all packed and ready to go (for the most part)!! We will be closing on our house here in GA on June 10th at 3:30 (all prayers are welcome!) and will be hitting the road shortly after for the long drive to MN. Over the next week we will be meeting with friends here in Athens one last time and going out to some of our favorite restaurants. I really don't want to say goodbye to anyone! Luckily we will have plenty of reasons to visit!

Here is our moving plan:
  • Pick up 25 foot rental truck (YIKES!) on Thursday 6/9 and start loading it with all of our big furniture pieces.
  • Finish packing small boxes Friday 6/10 morning.
  • Close on our house at 3:30
  • By 4:30 hit the road and drive 8 hours to Paducah, KY where we will spend the night
  • Wake up on Saturday morning and drive the rest of the 13 hours to Stillwater, MN
  • Stay with my family for two nights before driving the truck up to Zimmerman, MN where we will be storing our things at Eric's mom's (Thanks Becky & Dan!!) and unload the truck
Here is our route:
