Halfway Moved

Well, I have no Thanksgiving pictures to post because my camera cord is in a box somewhere between here and Kentucky. We spent the beginning of the week packing up and loading up our 'pods' with all of our stuff (Thank you so much to everyone that helped). When the 4 pods were full, we still had a living room full of stuff...it was a lot of money to get another pod so we spent Wednesday morning (like 5 hours) re-arranging and re-packing and fit most everything in. I wish I had taken a picture of them full. We used pretty much every square inch. There were a few things that didn't make the cut, but for the most part we got the important things. I felt a little like a pioneer trying to prioritize what we really needed and just kept thinking somewhere in those pods are boxes full of hangers and I have to leave my treadmill here? You have to be kidding. Anyway, I am so glad we are done with this side of it (only 2 more moves to go!). We had a really nice Thanksgiving with Steve's family and have been so grateful that we could stay at my parents house while they are out of town. Steve went back to Kentucky this morning and I leave on Tuesday. We are really going to do this! It seems a little surreal. I am excited but aprehensive and it will be good to finally be moved instead of just talking about it and to have our family back together. Kentucky, here we come!

How stressful to not be able to fit everything? Is someone going to hold onto the stuff for you? I hope you have a safe trip and that life settles down for you soon.

Good Luck Summer. We hope everything goes well. Moving stinks, but you realize home is wherever you are all together.
Love, Dana and Emily

Just want to wish you luck. I can't believe you're really taking off! I'm sad to see you go. I hope the move goes as smoothly as possible.

Do you have a temp address that we could send a Christmas card to? I hope your move and all the adjusting has gone or is still going good.
