It is time

So now the fun begins. We are starting to pack today. I have been able to start collecting boxes from the cardboard bin here at work and some friends have given us boxes. We have 2 weeks to get packed up and moved out. I have the truck scheduled and have talked to both wards about getting help loading. We close on Friday the 9th of November sometime in the afternoon hopefully. I am awaiting the time still.

We finally finished Stone's Superman puzzle last night. I have a big frame that a poster was in and we are going to glue the puzzle together and then we will frame it and put it up in the boy's new room. They want to decorate with Superheroes. I think the extra room will be their playroom and have a Cars theme. They have almost the entire Cars collection now. Stone got 4 more for his birthday. The puzzle got a little tricky toward the end because all of the pieces were the same color and we had to do it based upon shape of the pieces and which one had a bigger end or flatter tail. It was fun while it lasted and gave us something to do as a family.

The Rockies have had a rough start to the World Series. It is such a game of timing, having 9 days off sure didn't help them. They aren't getting the clutch hitting they were getting before. Last series they scored something like 16 runs with 2 outs. Now the Sox are doing the same thing to them that they did to the Phillies and D-backs.

If anyone reading this is around on November 10, we are planning on loading the truck at our apartment starting at 8am and planning on being to the house at approximately 1pm. We would love to see your smiling faces.

It sounds like you have some exciting times in front of you. I wouldn't mind being more helpful, but it seems like I was there shortly after you moved into this apartment. Really, I'm happy you will have a house and yard for the boys to run around in. Good luck.

I can't wait to see pictures of the new house. Good luck in the next couple of weeks. Lots of PHD's going on in Denver. Sorry about those Rockies. They did it to our Angels too. We know how you feel.

Go SOX! If it can't be the Dbacks, the Sox are the next best thing! :)

Moving is no fun! That is the only bonus about the military...when they come in an pack you and unpack and assemble everything. Wish we were there to help out! Wish the rockies were doin' better for you...although we like the sox, it would have been more fun to have it be a closer series.
