A little boy's birthday and moving update, etc.

Brayden's birthday was Sunday. Here are a couple of pictures...one blowing out candles and the other opening presents. He's such a darling little boy and has captured our hearts over the past 2 years. Happy Birthday Buddy!!


Here's a picture of my office and sewing room after moving a ton of boxes yesterday. It looks a tad bit better this evening.

Here's a couple of pictures of the kitchen after moving all the boxes yesterday. They are actually all opened and put away now. Most of the kitchen is done except for the pantry food, etc., which will be moved either Monday or Tuesday next week.



And last but certainly not least, are a couple of pictures of the first house going down in the neighborhood. This was about 11:00 a.m. and by 3:00 p.m. they had taken 2 more houses down. It was pretty creepy to watch...especially when you know that pretty soon they are going to do it to your house!

The weather was miserably cold today...it snowed early on and we never saw any sunshine at all.
Christy left for a little 5-day vacation at Disney World in Orlando this morning. Lucky! She's "off track" at school for the next three weeks. She'll be back on Monday afternoon...just in time to put her bedroom together!
I'm so flippin' tired tonight...I think I'll go pack a few things out of my closet and call it a night. The moving saga continues tomorrow...

Oh my gosh....look at all those boxes! And that's one heck of a ladder you've got there LOL.

Brayden is such a cutie. Gosh they grow up fast. :)

I can't believe they're already pulling down houses. I don't think I could watch my house being demolished. Are you going to be there??

What fun things you have going on! I'm so glad you have a few days to move things, and not just one weekend. The house looks really nice and fun. Congrats!

Wow, Cathy, your new house is beautiful! I know you must be exhausted!! I can't wait to see your craft room/office when you have it all done. My dream is to have one of those some day! :)

Oh My Cathy, so sorry to hear of your Dad's passing, he was obviously loved by you all. I feel sad for you.

Loved the photos of the birthday party too.

And those boxes, I know that feeling all too well. I hope you will be very happy in your new home Cathy.

What a huge job! I love moving, change and new things. Have some fun. Don't watch when it's time for them to get your house, that would be way to hard. Hang in there, it's almost done.

What a cutie Brayden is.
