Today Jeff & Jess start another chapter in their married life. Moving from their apartment in Byron Center where they lived since getting married to their new location in a home in Hudsonville. Starting at 9:00 this morning we were ready to get to work.
Jeff has the rental truck backed up and ready to load. They had some good donuts to eat before the work began.
Jeff & Jess were very ready for the move and had almost everything taken apart and boxed up and ready for us to load onto the trucks. Beds and large items loaded.
We had some great help. Jess’s parents and her sister, Bonnie, helped along with her Grandma and Grandpa. Our daughter, Julie, showed up toward the end of the loading up, but was a great help unloading and then staying with Mom helping put their new kitchen together. They packed this car to the max with many smaller items.
Pile is getting smaller
The Bedroom is empty and Jess is vacuuming it for the last time.
“Hey guys, I don’t think those boxes will ride real well on the roof”
Almost getting to the end and the room is looking mighty empty.
The truck getting full and Jess’s dad is making sure nothing moves around. We put the Grandfather clock in our van. This is the clock put together by my Dad and has since been passed down to Jeff & Jess. It still keeps great time.
Last item the TV, waiting to be picked up and loaded. Then Jess vacuumed the living room for the last time. Their plan was to leave the apartment nice and clean and drop the keys off on their way out and not come back. After we had everything loaded we gather together and I prayed and thanked the Lord for this day and the memories this apartment has given to them and for safety as we moved to their new place in Hudsonville.
Jeff is ready to move out and head to their new home. Also, this a picture of the apartment where they spent their first year or so.
We have arrived at their new home and Jeff backs the truck in and we start unloading.
Now that everything is moved in, it looks like they have a lot of work ahead putting everything where it belongs. Christi showed up with Gracie and they stayed and helped to put the kitchen and living room together.
We had to pick up some things at Julie’s place so we went there next.
Gracie found a nice spot to sit and play some games. There is a huge old Oak tree right in the front yard by the road.
Welcome to your new home Jeff & Jess, and welcome to the great city of Hudsonville. This is the view of their home from the front. That is Grandpa Waite’s Raspberries sign passed down to Jeff. Their new address is 3508 Curtis Street, Hudsonville, Mi 49426
Thanks for letting us share our day with you,
Dale & Christi
