Furniture moving

We are SO blessed with so many wonderful friends!
8-10 people showed up at 10 am to help move fruniture into our new home on November 6th.
I stayed busy feeding peolpe, making coffee and directing furniture to rooms.
Everything ran smoothly until the last piece of furniture was ready to be moved. Our rolltop desk is beautiful...and heavy. I was asked, "Hey Shelly, how do you like your desk?" I replied that I loved it..."How do you like it right here?" I told the men that while the desk looked lovely in the container van, it was getting cold outside and I knew that it would look better INside the house on the wall it was designed for!
As the men discussed the how of moving the massive piece, I decided it was better for me to go off on an errand rather than stick around and see how it was done. :)
When I returned, the desk was in its place and the helpers were hungry!
Thanks Maryann for the wonderful homemade cookies that went great with lunch.
Christopher and Alyssa put together the dining table and chairs...good job guys!
We all worked over the next few days to finish putting together beds etc

Many, many thanks to those who gave up their Saturday morning to help! We appreciate you!
