Well, we didn’t quite hit our deadline.
We have to be out of the rental tomorrow, and the new house isn’t ready for us.
We are officially homeless!
We’ve got everything moved out of the rental, so all that’s left to do is scrub it. We are really hoping and praying that we aren’t far away from moving into the new house, but in the meantime, my parents have graciously offered to take us in.
They’ve offered us their home, the screwing up of their schedules, the inconveniences that come along with adding three extra bodies, and I sincerely hope… some of Mom’s delicious home made food. 
They offered all of this to us AFTER they spent the last week moving our crap, cleaning up after us, wrangling Junior, and literally helping build our new home.
This is not an ideal situation to be in, but I sure am thankful for family.
You are my very favorites.
The furry members of the family will be camping out on the farm, which they’re excited about, and we really appreciate. So thank you, too, wonderful in-laws! I feel so lucky to have married in to you.
We’ll never be able to repay you all for everything you’ve done, but in the meantime, here’s a virtual high five.
*high five*
You do have the best parents! I’d enjoy some of your mom’s cooking, too! Prayers you’re only visiting for a little while.
You parents so are wonderful for helping out so much. Hopefully you get the house finished very soon!
It sounds like you’ve got an amazing family! Isn’t family just the best?!
I hope your house gets done soon b/c I’m so anxious to see it !
Nothing beats your own mom’s cooking. Maybe God just wanted you to catch your breath and rest a little while before starting all the hustle and bustle of moving into a new home.
DRAT! Keep your head up grrrfriend, it’s almost done! Your parents are truely awesome! I love ‘em! If there is anything we can do to help, please holler. And try to have a happy birthday tomorrow! Even with these speedbumps then finish line is nearly here and it’s going to be amazing! *HUG*
Sorry to hear your house isn’t ready but at least you have fantastic family who will support you and help you out. There is no better gift than family. Hope you can make the big move soon.
Families definitely are the best! We lived with my in-laws for over a year {yes, you read that correctly…A YEAR} after we sold our townhouse…paid off the loss we took on it…and saved up for a downpayment on a new home. We couldn’t have done it without them…and without the major support of my parents either. I hope I’ll be able to do the same things for my children one day!
My fingers are crossed that you move in ASAP!!!!!!!
Bummer! But you have some pretty amazing parents there …

Oh Amy, I’m sorry the house isn’t ready. But how lucky that you can spend some time with your wonderful in-laws. And the house will wait for another day.
You look just like your mom, who by the way is as cute as a bug, and because I’m a mom of a daughter your age I’ll tell ‘ya true ….. I’d bet it means as much to your mom & dad to be able to do those things for you as it means to you. Just ask your parents. I bet they’d also stay in on any Friday or Saturday to watch Junior too because we grandparents are funny that way.

You are so blessed to have wonderful parents to help you guys out! Can’t wait for you guys to move in!!
We are so happy that we can help, and very thankful that the furry friends are at the in-laws!! LOL… I’m happy to cook for ya too
Sad that you missed the deadline, but thank God for parents who have to take you in when you need a place. (Also, is your mom 25 years old?!)
mom & dads are super cool!!! I’m sure you guys are anxious to get into the new house!
TEAR. I thought this post was gonna be all we’re-moving-in-tomorrow but alas. Sorry to hear about the delay, I know it’s a bummer (I’m on like a month delay myself at this point…) it’s super frustrating, especially because there’s so much excitement about moving in, but sounds like you got good peeps to fall back on! Hope the delay isn’t too long!
Thank goodness for the folks…hopefully it’s a quick transition, filled with mom cooked meals. Happy Bday!!

Thank goodness for family! We had to live with my in-laws for a month before we could move into our house. It was definitely not ideal, but we all made it through
I’m sure they are happy to do it. We had to crash with my parents for six weeks when we first moved from the west coast to the east coast. We were so grateful to have a place to “land” while we focused on other important decisions.
aww family is awesome
!! the suspense is building for the move-in post!
Aren’t parents the best? I’m hoping you don’t have to stay long!
