Moving Day!

September 17, 2014 By Talya Tate Boerner 18 Comments

empty cabinets - moving day!

Yesterday our moving company (Bekins) sent a crew over to “prep” for our move. And to pack our kitchen. I decided it would be best to leave our breakables (all those egg dishes) to the professionals. And man alive, THEY WERE AMAZING.

Silly me. I thought they would only pack up dishes. No. They wrapped every single can of beans and tomato sauce individually. I had no idea.

Moving Day! Bekins packing crew. Amazing!

These guys had some mean packing skills.

In the past few days, I’ve packed most everything else. The house echoes the emptiness.

The house is beginning to echo. Moving Day!

Our truck did a drive by yesterday to make sure it could clear the thick canopy of Live Oaks shading Worth Street. Thankfully, it did. And the truck is my favorite color, so there’s that. (It’s the little things.)

This morning our house is a maze of boxes. The guys and the truck will be back soon to load everything. What a strange feeling. Strange yet exciting.

moving day!

I’ll see you on the other side. The Arkansas side, that is!
