What was I thinking???!!!!

So I've been packing things away for a bit, doing a little here and there when I have time. Riley is teething so she is a bit more to handle lately. The boxes are stacking up and the house is looking more and more empty which is kind of sad. We've been having a bit of a heat wave up here as well, which is really not very common so lugging boxes around isn't very much fun. Chris and I have always moved ourselves and for some reason just assumed we'd do the same this time, but I awoke at 3 am the other night thinking - why don't we hire people to pack the truck on this side and upack it on that side?!!! We then don't have to drive 14 hours, sore from moving all our belongings, just to do it again at our new place. I spent the morning booking two companies and was surprised the kind of people you can find to do such a task. I spoke with these guys, but for some reason Chris just kept finding issues with them so we've settled on another company - I saw absolutely nothing wrong with them.



The days are slowly ticking away and we are getting excited about moving home soon AND ecstatic that we will not be lugging the boxes ourselves - maybe I can sit back and put my feet in the kiddie pool :)

I spoke with the one in the front carrying the box and he was very nice. Not sure chris' issue.....

Um ... do they work in Massachusetts? Because Mike and I will be moving soon, you know, and while we're only moving about ten minutes away, these guys look really ... qualified ... and professional.
