Military Moves can be exhausting

and I think Cookie totally agrees with me...

She insists on following me room to room - ever watching, ever faithful...

I am so blessed to have such a wonderful best friend...

I just wish she could help move furniture or maybe babysit once in a while!

"Hey Cookie! Wanna cook dinner while I unpack a few more boxes?"

"Woof... Woof woof...Woof..."

"Umm yeah sure... Kibbles n Bits sounds great for supper..."

Do you have a furry family member too?

Ice Cube Clubhouse

The best part about unpacking... 

is all the empty boxes...

and the fact that Mommy doesn't mind ice cubes in the living room...

Jacob came up with the name "Ice Cube Clubhouse"... 

I heard them talking about it inside the box.

What is making you smile today?

What is your favorite part of moving?

Mamarazzi Monday: Moving edition

Are you part of the Mamarazzi?

Are you a compulsive picture taker?

Do you stalk your family with a camera?

This week I moved to a new apartment - and totally stalked my movers with my camera!

 

Here is Carson and Sven.  Carson did the paperwork. Sven did all the heavy lifting.

No seriously - he told me he does this all day and then goes home to work out more.

Then he told me he can bench 150 kilograms (that's over 300 pounds!)

Here is Michael - he kept insisting "No Mister! Just Mike!"

He packed my entire living room and kitchen.

He spoke very little english, but he had kind eyes and a quick smile - 

which was really reassuring on such a stressfull day!

And here is our empty living room when it was time to vacuum the rugs.

And my new living room FULL of boxes...

The left wall is 2 boxes deep of kitchen boxes.

The back wall is 3 boxes high with living room boxes.

We started at 830 in the morning and finished at 430 in the afternoon.

It.   Was.   Exhausting!

More pictures and stories to come as I find my way around all these boxes!

...

Modern Rosie the Riveter

What does a capable Military wife do when the hubby is away

and she discovers that the dryer vent is not properly connected?

I think my favorite part of this picture is Madeline's face... 

and that Jacob is obliviously loading the dryer...

...

What do you think a good caption for this picture would be?
