Grams bewildered look - (She had this quite often!)
Contemplating what to do next?!
Wahoo - one room empty! Elaine's happy about it!
Ellen taking a rest.
Gramps about to lose his britches! (Not sure what they're discussing -probably the record player!)
Today was the day we started moving Grams and Gramps Nicholas out of their house! Wow, what a job. We just got home from loading more stuff and it doesn't look like we made much of a dent in their house! They have collected a lot of things over the years. (You can acquire alot in 94 years!) My advice to whoever reads this - start "de-junking" your houses NOW!
We got their bed, dressers, clothes, bathroom essentials, etc. moved so they can now call Nancy's house "Home". (Thanks Nancy!).
They have been very blessed to have stayed in their own home for all these years. Gramps is 94 and Grams is 89. We will miss having them close by - not being able to stop on our way home from work - but they are not too far away.
Here's some pictures from the big day (aren't you glad you're on a mission Anne and Roy!!!).

wow...what a job! I can't imagine moving all that stuff! I'm going to miss them living there, it was very nice easy to stop in and visit!
Oh, it's just as easy to visit them now. They're only a few minutes away now and they're still on the way for all the grandkids coming home. And everyone must know they can stop ANYTIME!!! :)
It's just that they can't leave church to go across the street now!
That's a lot of stuff to move! I will miss them living there, too! But at least it's on the way of going/coming!
Oh man, what a headache and a lot of work you guys have done. Hopefully everyone will settle in sooN!
oh, that makes me all teary eyed. I can't believe they have moved. We know they are in great hands though. We will stop by and see them when we come though.
We are sorry that we weren't there to help you. But we know that Mom and Dad are in good hands!! It may have been harder for us if we had been there to see that phase of their life come to an end.
But now they are in another phase and we are glad that Nancy is there to keep them company.
Love,
Anne and Roy
