Oh goodness! What a week we’ve had!
Over the last 7 days we moved into our new house and then today…Kensington and I leave for Boston and Andrew and Smith leave for New York City. The Shull four are taking our baseball seriously and the girls are on our way to see the Sox play while the boys are on their way to see the Yankees play…I hope the boys have a great weekend…but I also hope their Yankees lose :).
House divided.
Last week was all about moving and I must say, I could not have done it without my sweet family and friends. My family showed up and worked so hard to help us get everything moved over and unpacked. I am so blessed to have so many wonderful family members who spent their weekend moving us.
Speaking of blessed, my friends went above and beyond for us too. Sheaffer, Erika, Narci and Andrea made us food, watched my kids, sent their husbands to help move the heavy things, and really helped more than they know. I am so thankful to have these ladies in my life too.
Day 141: I put together Ashby’s chair for the new house. I can’t wait until we have a sweet girl to sit in that chair.
Day 142: Sitting in the car with my babies singing silly songs before swim lessons began.
Day 143: The last picture on the rent house stairs because this was MOVING DAY! We made so many wonderful memories in that house together.
Day 144: Day two of moving…we had breakfast at our local diner before the work began. Coffee and syrup helped motivate us to move.
Day 145: I’m so thankful for sweet Erika and her family! They invited us over to dinner during the moving madness…and it was a much needed break and a yummy meal!
Day 146: We spent our Memorial Day unpacking boxes and running errands. My sweet girl dressed herself and came to Target with me (nothing says Memorial Day in Texas quite like gloves and a winter hat!).
Day 147: First real morning in our new house and first real day of summer for my kiddos…I’m loving Unglued by Lysa TerKeurst. I feel like she’s talking directly to me. I highly recommend it!

I LOVE that chair and all it represents that is coming. Looking forward to baseball pictures from your girls/guys weekend.

That pic of K in the ski hat kills me! So cute! And I wish I had thought to record some of the conversations between Smith and Carter during their playdate. Sweet and hilarious things were said!

Shay! How in the world do you have the energy to move houses and travel across the country all in the same week?! Seriously, you are amazing!! Have fun on your trip up here to see our boys… I hope Andrew and Smith have fun too but obviously their Yankees are going to lose! Travel safe and enjoy!! And make sure you take that sweet girl to Mike's Pastry for a cannoli!!
