Our move to Florida

Johnny and an old high school friend moved some of our stuff to Johnny's mom's house on Friday. Charlie, jack, and I got chick fil a and enjoyed our last night at our house.
The big move was last Saturday the 22nd of June. Moving day was a very busy day! Once grandma got to our house we went to visit Jason and lori at the hospital to see their new baby boy, Finn. Then we rushed home to our movers.
We left Birmingham around 3:15 and drove to my parents house. (Johnny had to go to Jimmy's house and get jacks bed so he didn't leave Birmingham until more like 5:30).
Sunday we left Columbus around 10:00 for our drive to Florida. After a stop to get gas, lunch at a rest area, and a stop for Johnny's migraine we arrived at our apartment at 3:30.
We ate dinner (boston market...which is so yummy) on the floor of our dining room. Our movers came on Monday at 9:00 and were done by noon. I was stressed thinking we would never get all of the boxes unpacked!! Now we are done and we like our little apartment!
Jack and charlie had no toys to play with so jack played with pillows and laundry baskets

Moe's dinner and clean out fridge

Andrea and Robby and the kids came over and brought us moe's 2 nights before the move to get the food from my fridge and freezer (I didn't want to just throw away all of that food). We had fun and the kids played so well together!
joseph and charlie had a great time playing together...

Visiting namer

We went to visit namer a few days before our move. She is doing well and likes her new home. The boys loved entertaining her :)

Gem mining at the library

This was super cool! I have always loved rocks so of course this was one of my favorite things we have done together.

Our last zoo play date with our best friends

This was a fun, but sad day for us. Jack had a blast but then had to say goodbye (hopefully for a year) to his best friends. Of course I couldn't hold back my tears. I try to hold it together so he will not be sad about our move.
I LOVE this picture
LOVE this picture too!

Father's Day 2013

We went to church, ate leftovers for lunch(blame it on the move), went to visit sonny, and went to schlotzsky's for dinner.
jack sounded out and wrote this by himself!
