The Long Process Begins

We have decided that now is as good as time as any to try and sell our house and move to a bigger one - so, we are in the process of getting our house ready to put on the market. In order to make our house appear "normal" Jonathan has been packing up his Star Wars collection. He has been working into the wee hours of every night packing things up. I have spent my summer cleaning out closets and sneezing through lots of dust. This weekend we started moving his collection to storage. I, of course, am very excited to actually have a basement again. Jonathan is sad to see his stuff go - although it will be back to clutter our new house - I mean to be displayed in our new house. We took the seats out of the mini van and loaded it up many times with trips to the storage unit. The kids were great helpers and had fun playing with some of the toys. Of course...we got yelled at all the time for bending things or not being careful enough - so we finally gave up.
Anyways...we got most of his stuff moved this weekend. A few more trips and I will have a basement again. My task this week is to get the toy room turned back into a dining room. I'll let you know if we succeed!

How do you like the R2D2 coolers guarding the unit? Nice, huh?

Logan's turn!

Beautiful blue eyed boy!

Foosball - you would think they were the luckiest kids ever - two video games, Star Wars foosball - they don't know how good they have it. Now...we won't be able to afford college because of the toys, but....LOL!

Emma...checking it all out!
