We had one moving truck and three trailers(although there were only three trailers,we used them twice-so six trailer loads) for the move; we packed up everything on Wednesday of last week and then on Thursday unloaded it at the new house. Friday was spent helping our girl unpack while hubby helped sil put together beds. If we never have to move another moving box, it won't be too soon. My girls are amazing in how quickly they can get their houses back in order. I know there is still a lot to do, but the house is already feeling like their home. So on Saturday, hubby and I had a lazy day-we were both still so wiped. Yesterday, we ran down to Denver on an errand, had lunch in Northglen and then stopped by our girl's new nest. Last night, hubby and I were watching t.v. when our girl calls and says they have a Great Horned Owl in the field behind their home. They got out their binoculars to get a good look at it and were so excited. Of course, it does mean being more aware of its presence, due to their small dog. I'm taking our Spotting Scope over today for them, in case it is nesting in the tree nearby. I am also hoping I'll get a glimpse of it.

I hope your weekend was relaxing and not too crazy.

Good morning Noreen. I am so glad you are nearly unpacked, and settled. Also that you have your daughter moved too. Phew!
ReplyDeleteTime to relax and enjoy....and nest...nest...nest!!!
That owl is so cool. We have them here too, and I love to hear them at night!

Good morning! Nothing like a move is there?! But always such a good feeling to get it behind you and settle in to your new feel. Soo happy for you daughter, and for you...how wonderful to have both of your girls and their families soo close. Doesn't get a whole lot better. Now rest up a bit, it sounds like it is time for the fun part...decorating! Have a good week!
ReplyDeleteHow good the grueling work of the move is over, and I like that owl.
ReplyDeleteYouv've been busy. What a great picture. Hugs
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear the move went well. Every time I move (and I have not moved that much), I always say, if I do that again, it will be too soon!
ReplyDeleteGlad you both got some me time and things are now mostly done. Wow an owl. We had a falcon once in our garden. Lord knows were it came from. Have a marvellous Monday.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly
Me and Stanley have a lot going on this week but can't say anything about it for a few days. Glad thing slowed down a bit for you!
ReplyDeleteYour Pals,
Murphy & Stanley
I think I would be very nervous if we had an owl living in the yard! My brother has one that lives in his...although he does not have a dog. It is kind of cool looking though! You sure have been busy...hope you find some time to relax. Hugs to both you and Hunter!
ReplyDeleteI hear you on the vow to never move another moving box! It's been 6 years since we moved, and I still feel that way! ;-)
ReplyDeleteHope you can relax a little in August (and maybe even quilt a little).
