Moving Boxes

This morning, I borrowed Gina and her truck to help me pick up some moving boxes from the moving company that will be moving us in two weeks. They have a warehouse in Kent, WA which is about 30 min South of me. We were told that we would not be charged for any boxes that we pack before the movers come. We decided to pack our clothes, books, office stuff, etc., We'll have them pack the kitchen and any breakable.

We picked up a lot of boxes today. I wanted to be sure to get plenty, and err on the side of caution. If we don't use all of them, the moving company will just the them back after they pack us.

The nearest IKEA is in Renton, which is on the way to Kent. Gina needed to pick up a few things do we went there first. She hadn't had breakfast yet, so we went to the cafeteria where she got the $1 (!) breakfast and waffles. It was her first time eating at IKEA, so I thought it was photo worthy!

Anyhow, back to the boxes:
I'm so grateful for Gina's help and her truck!! There's no way we could have gotten these boxes home in our car.

Once we were back at our apartment, we were able to borrow the cart from the concierge and fit all the boxes on the cart in one load!! Amazing! It made bringing them up to our apartment so much easier.

Thanks for all if your help today, Gina!!
