Justin and Jon loaded the moving van, while I packed kitchen and last minute stuff... and Nans cleaned! We were done and ready to go to the new house by 10:30 am!! (a few friends from the ward stopped by to help lend a hand or two... which REALLY helped!)

Un-packing at the new house... Just and Jon We got done early with unloading the truck, so we left the boxes behind and decided to take advantage the perfect 75 degree weather and have lunch at Panara and head over to Maymont Park's beautiful Japaneese Gardens.... Such a beautiful afternoon! Homemade cookies! Sunday April 11th came, and we were so sad because we had to say Good-bye to Nans... we had a blast while you were here... and we'll MISS YOU!!
