It has been a few days, but now we finally have the energy to post on our blog! We needed to move sometime before September because we needed a second bedroom. It was a lot of work, and hard timing, as we had just finished with finals and Rachelle's graduation when we needed to start packing. But, we figured it would be better to move now in May instead of waiting until August when Rachelle is 8 months pregnant!
So after a lot of packing I got out of class and we went and picked up our U-haul. The guy at the U-haul place tried to sell us on some real estate "college" that he runs... We were like... "buddy, just give us the truck, we need to go!"
Anyway, some great guys from my church Elder's Quorum came over and the four of us put everything in the truck. Luckily everything fit and they were kind enough to even come with us and help unload. I wasn't sure how that was going to work, but I was hoping they would be willing to come help unload too. It only took an hour and a half with their help! So we are working on putting everything in its place. Rachelle is soooo excited to have space for everything in the kitchen... and we even have a drawer where a silverware organizer fits inside!! Ahh... the simple pleasures of life.
One sad note is that we had to give away our kitten Max and our pet rats Macie and Gracie. We were able to find them good new homes, but it was not our favorite part of having to move. Our cat Max didn't actually get a "new" home... the people that moved into our old condo adopted Max, so at least he is able to stay in a familiar environment. We are excited to be home owners someday and have all the pets we want! :-) We will be ok though, because we have a baby to look forward to! We find out on Wednesday if it is a boy or a girl, and we are dying in anticipation!!

Wow, you guys have definitely been busy with life!!! I'm glad that you've moved before Rachelle got too far along in the pregnancy. Summer would have been hard enough, but to move then would have been horrible.
May God bless your new home!!
Congrats on the move! That's exciting! Now, just waiting for the baby!!!
You'll love Oxford! We're excited that you guys got in there!
