Moving on Up (North, that is)



Okay, within the hour the movers come!! It's nerve-wracking, I tell ya!!!


The last week was unexpectedly spent with both of us working all day and then working all night at separate houses. We knew we'd be working a lot this week and we at least thought it would be at the same house, but no luck!! Anner did the pack-and-sell show until now there's nearly nothing left of her stuff!! Aaron painted baseboards, installed bathroom fixtures, awaited the arrival of the arch, and brought loads of "hand-deliver" items to the new house.




One night we both worked really late. Around midnight Anner had enough and went to bed. Too bad she locked the screen door so when Aaron arrived a couple of hours later he was locked out of the house. He knocked. No answer. He rung the door bell. No answer. He called her on the phone and listened to it ring on the kitchen table as it turned to voicemail. Still no answer. Finally he had no choice but to sneak around the house to her bedroom window and call her name, "Aaaaaanner, wake up!" Still asleep she mumbles, "What?!" "Wake up, you locked me out of the house." Ooopsie!! It could happen to anyone, right? Mom always said, "lock the door at night". Turns out this happend one more time before the week was done. Won't he be happy to live somewhere with no screen doors that lock???


So here we are...any minute now the movers come! Stay tuned for pictures of the new house all settled in!

Hey there Kiddos, Glad to read your blog. Good job. Love the pictures of the " worker" bees. It's so fun to follow the progress of your combining estates. Keep up the good work. Your home looks like it will be very nice when you are all done. Floors. Wow!! Take good care of each other. A year from now, you can look back at this time as all part of the history of the Barr-Charrier combo. Love you both.
