What a whirl wind was the month of November for us! Erik was offered a job to work for King Co. in Seattle, WA. In the month of Nov we traveled to Seattle for one last meeting with new company and to check out places to live. After that trip we decided that it was the right thing to do and officially accepted the position. Then we had three weeks to pack up the house and say good bye to all of our new friends we have met in Montana! I worked until 4 days before we had to pack up the moving truck.
We took about two days to pack and spent some time with friends. Then on Monday, Nov 31st at 0730 we took the truck and pointed it towards Seattle. We decided to pull our car on the trailer so we could ride together in the truck.
Erik did a great job driving most of the 9 1/2 hours. (I drove about 2 hrs)
We arrived after dark and were met by Aunt Kay and Jonathan to help us get some unpacking done. LAter Monika even stopped by and helped. We crashed and awoke the next morning to these views from our balcony! And the BLUE SKY! When we first moved to Seattle it was actually clear and sunny for about 10 days. The temps were cooler than normal but fine for us in the 20's and 30's.
Here is Erik standing by the railing of the hallway in the front of our building.
Here is a view of the "back" of the building. Our balcony is on the third floor right there on the corner.
Our truck is almost empty. I'll tell you we were really tired by this time!!
Here's a view of all the boxes in our living room. (I'll try to post pictures of our unpacked living room soon!)
Here is a view from the balcony in the afternoon. We have a great view of the Cascade mountains!
Keep following from more on our new life in Seattle!
