About Me
Last year my grandparents downsized to a much smaller house. It was a good move for them because they had such a big house, and it turned into a huge job to move them out after all that time. We worked with them to figure out which things we needed to move to the new house, which items should go into storage so the grandkids can get them later on when we have houses of our own and which items we should donate to charities. This blog is all about packing up a big house and going through a lifetime worth of possessions.
