Day #1 Unpacking the office/sewing studio

So I will be honest, I have been dreading the time that I would have to tackle this room. Why you ask? Well for one, there are a million and 1 boxes in there! 2.....well the Packers were not very organized. It literally makes me want to pull my hair out!!! But, my Grammy has asked me to do something and in order to complete the task, I must unpack this craziness! 

Today was day #1 and I tackled 15 boxes. I am happy with the forward progress but not with how slow it is going!!

This is looking into the room from the French doors that I am very grateful to be able to close when not working in here!

 Some more of the madness ahem craziness um boxes to unpack!

This will eventually be my embroidery and appliqué corner.

This will eventually be my sewing machine station and Nomades work space.

Just so you don't think that I am exaggerating on how much stuff there is to put away!!

 14 of the 15 boxes to show you how puny it looks!

You must save 1 box to stuff paper in! Rules of unpacking from a PCS move!

Progress!! Can you see it? Please tell me that you can! !

So in order to get the boxes unpacked,  I had to make a huge mess because I of course haven't found the baskets to put the embroidery blanks in......

New year, new state, new home

November and December 2016 found our family scrambling to excute a PCS (permanent change of station) cross country move. I flew to find our new home, we purged, had a moving sale, packed, cleaned, and so much more in a very short period of time. 
It was an interesting time of year to move for us. Traveling around Christmas time was simultaneously fun and very Stressful! We were blessed to be with family and friends the entire way across the country. 
We received our HHG (household goods) on the 29th, 30th, and then January 10th. The exhausting process of unpacking and making a home has been in full swing. I had a goal of 2 weeks in my head but I am not sure if we're going to make it!


Here are the before pictures of some of the rooms my parents came down and helped out with.....
