Volunteers? Anyone?

Justin and I are still weighing options for moving ALL our stuff across almost two states!

Option 1 includes hiring a moving company (a company where we pack the stuff into a large trailer and they move it to our new house) this option has a couple drawbacks, the first is that the trailer they drop off is a 28 ft. trailer with a 14 ft. ramp, this means the trailer would take up a large portion of the block we live on and we would have to push everything (including our piano) up that 14 ft. ramp! The other drawback is the cost, this would be a more costly way of moving all our stuff. We would then drive all 3 of our cars along with Mom & Dad's car down to McAllen the day of closing.

Option 2 includes renting a Penske truck and driving all our stuff to McAllen ourselves. The drawbacks of this include driving the LARGE truck all that way, we would also need another driver since we would be driving 3 cars and a rental truck. This moving option is more budget friendly. Another option would be leaving one or two of our cars at the airport, flying back and driving them down within the next week.

So, if anyone has any great (budget friendly) ideas on moving long distance, please let me know. Or if anyone out there would like to drive a car from OKC to McAllen I would happily fly you back to your home!...Oh, I forgot to mention, you have the option of either having a screaming 2 year old OR a screaming cat to ride along with you for at least 12 hours! Sounds like fun huh?

Everything else with the home buying/selling is moving along smoothly. The FHA inspector is scheduled to come out again tonight to our house to check if the door opens, make sure we took out the extension cord in our garage and now he wants to look at the shed. Lets hope all goes well this time around! FHA Inspection is supposed to take place on our new house either today or tomorrow - praying that this goes well also!
