Well, it's official, we are in Oklahoma. I swear our road was not that sloped in WV. We booked it out of town about 2 hours after the movers left, and we finished cleaning for the new owners. We made it midway through Ohio before stopping for the night, thinking we didn't want to push our luck with the kids...they woke up bright and early the following morning, so we got on the road by 830am...and drove and drove, through the time change, into some rain, out of the rain, and actually all the way to our final destination in central Oklahoma in the middle of the night. Yikes. The kids were awesome.
{I should add: before we left some of our friends from pre-school had given us some going away gifts, and what a HUGE difference they made for us during the trip. Simple things like prepackaged treats, bones for the dog, atlas dry erase maps so we could track our progress. Oddly enough, the most frustrating part of the trip was the car dvd player I purchased but randomly didn't work. Extremely frustrating!}
We ended up arriving a few days ago, and have been in the process of getting settled into a long-term rental where we will live for a few weeks until our new house is finished. It's been fun getting to get the hang of a new place. It's nice to check out stores that we didn't have locally before. We have also had some amazing summer-like weather.
It was great to show our boys the new house:
I ended up sending my sewing machine with the movers, but still have projects to share from before the move...so hopefully I'll be back soon...
