I hate moving!!!!!

Sadly, this is the only picture I took at the concert!!!



So, I think I say this EVERY time we move, which seems to be alot! At this point, we have moved 7 times in 9 years of marriage. Is that crazy to anyone else??? And alot of those places we stayed at for a few years which means we've had a few fast ones too! I think I was in slight denial about it. Seriously, the week before we had Foster cousins (the Peck's) come and visit for a few days, then about 2 days later we had all of my sister's family and another cousin's family (the Phillip's) come to play for the weekend. We had so much fun!!!! I kinda can't believe I didn't take any pictures of any of the families. Lame-o!!!! Lots of fun!!! They all left and the next day, we starting moving. It was nuts. I hadn't really packed and seriously, local moves are the worst! You think it's no big deal, but then you take a MILLION trips!!!! We moved the whole week, each night after work. We were so tired! We both get up really early, but we had to stay up late each night packing, cleaning, taking trips back and forth. We finished Friday. We had friends moving into our old house, so we needed to make sure everything was ready for them by the morning. We moved until 10, then I took kids home to bed. Nick stayed and did last minute things, then cleaned all the floors/carpets. I felt so guilty leaving him so I stayed up at the new house and got SO MUCH unpacked! We finally went to bed around 1:30. We had to help our friends that morning at 8, so pretty much we were pooped. Then to top it all off, we had tickets to a Jason Aldean concert in SLC. These were bought way before we knew we were moving. I thought about just passing, but Nick really wanted to go. So, my sister was here shopping so she took the kids back to Caliente and Nick and I left at noon-ish. It was nice to relax in the truck, but we were SOOO tired! We stopped at Cabela's super quick and didn't even have time to grab dinner before the concert. Concert was AWESOME!! Much more rock-ish and city country, but still good. Chris Young and Thompson Square opened. Well, we got out of the parking lot around 11:15 and decided we were kinda awake and didn't have a room yet, so we started driving back. We had to stop and chill here and there, but made it back home around 7. We took a quick nap, went to church, then back home to unpack and decorate before we had to get kids that evening. Reminded of two things: 1. Holy cow you can get SO MUCH MORE DONE WITHOUT KIDS!!! and 2. We aren't the young bucks we used to be!!!! No more all-nighters!!!! :)

Chelsea! So you probably would have told me about your move if we could have made it to dinner, but I didn't know you were moving! You guys sounds crazy busy, I hope everything went well. Hope to see you sometime soon:)
