Our Big Move Timeline.
Our timeline looks like this:
- Movers pack up belongings.
- We move into TLF (temporary living facility -- basically a temporary little home with temporary belongings)
- TMO (traffic management office) sends their people to pick up our stuff.
- Our stuff gets shipped to the East Coast and sits in storage.
- We clean, clean, clean our base house.
- Ethan does his final out (last minute out-processing of this base.)
- We hit the road!!!!!!
- We see cool, awesome places and hang with cool, awesome people!
- We arrive in Georgia.
- Ethan in-processes to his new base in Georgia.
- We house hunt while living in our fifth wheel.
- We (hopefully, Lord willing) buy a house and make it our home. :)
One of the more difficult tasks from this process was figuring out how to pack 2 months worth of our lives into our fifth wheel. We want to be extremely picky about the house we decide to buy and so we are anticipating living in the fifth wheel for a while. Even when we find a house it will take a good month for the whole contract process. I really need to give you guys a fifth-wheel tour because it is actually a lot bigger than people imagine. There is a shower/mini tub, kitchen, fridge, bunk bed, kitchen table, couch and queen size bed. Since the side slides out, there is a decent amount of floor space for Kaiden and his toys. It will definitely be an adventure but our family is constantly adapting to the situations thrown at us. We figure that in the long run, our fifth wheel provides more consistency for Kaiden than a string of hotel rooms ever would. All I know is I can't wait for #6. I'm so pumped for our road trip! You can bet I'll be taking pictures galore so be sure to check in on my blog regularly (though I'm sure posting will be sporadic on the road) and definitely follow me on Instagram.
