the weeks leading up to our move to utah, it felt like we spent all of our free time preparing. whether we were packing up, selling old furniture or donating things we didn't need anymore, we were keeping busy. things were going so well! in fact, we were ahead of schedule, until reese decided to stop sleeping the last two days we had left to pack. needless to say, we were not all the way ready when moving day came. that is not the way we've run in the past, so it was hard feeling like we didn't have every last thing packed away when the truck was sitting out front.
thankfully we had some great friends who worked tirelessly on our mound of stuff that needed to be loaded into the truck. i am not kidding when i say they were at our house all day. we can't thank them enough for their help.
(thanks for the moving pictures sarah)
the kids did really, really well on our long drive thanks to movies, bathroom breaks, treats and some naps in between.
one of our stops was in winter quarters, nebraska. we stopped here on the way out to wisconsin and stopped here again leaving wisconsin.
our dear reese had to endure many long hours in this car seat. she did so well! of course there were small moments here and there where she wanted out, but for the most part, she was a champ.
i didn't manage to get any pictures of darren and lori who flew out to help us drive across the country. we were glad they came to help out! it made our drive so much easier.
