That long anticipated day...Dan and Rebecca finally have their farm, have done the necessary rennovations to the house, and are ready to move in. The crews met at the mobile home out past El Dorado with trucks, vans etc.
There was last minute packing......but someone needs to give those babies attention!
YES BOTH OF THEM!
Charity went with Hannah and Sarah to pack the day before, and stayed the night so they'd be there to help in the morning.
After the crews left to unload at the new house, a group of ladies stayed behind to clean...
and clean...
How clean can one house be? (Thanks Shari, for heading up this hard-working crew!)

They left the home sparkling...
and ready for whoever needs it next.
Meanwhile, back at the farm, the men arrive and start to unload.
furniture and boxes began to fill the new house. A few of the younger girls and I cleaned up the kitchen, and made sandwiches and other goodies for the workers.
I decided to put in a few "before and after shots" of the house, since there was so much remodeling and updating that was done.

Here we see the eat-in kitchen, painted a pale blue with a country border...the utility room is also much brighter. This is the living room BEFORE:

The walls are textured and painted a green, but they still plan to glaze the paint job. The carpet was just laid the week of the move.
Although they kept the red carpet in the office for now, the walls have been primed, and are soon to be textured as well.

Once the boxes are gone, and they are more settled, I'll post a few more "before and after shots, for everyone who'd like to see.

Now they are in, but getting settled and unpacked is a DIFFERENT MATTER altogether.
May you make many happy memories in your new home.
