On the Road Again

Well, we loaded up the first load of our things to take to Branson. We are going from the furnished condo to another temporary rental that is unfurnished. So, we had to go "home" to get some of our things. Our next rental isn't large enough for all of our stuff, so we left some things behind in the house (which we are still waiting to sell.) We used a company that drops a trailer for you to load and unload yourself, and they do the driving.

Since Sam had to load that big baby up himself (and since I'm toting a big baby these days), we were so thankful to have family and friends help us! Sam's folks and youngest brother came to help and our good friend Marcus Jackson gave up his entire day to help...and sweat! LOL I tell you, I miss a lot of things about Mississippi, but the humid, suffocating heat is not one of them! Anyway, thanks for all the help everyone!

We were so thrilled to see lots of familiar faces on this quick trip over. We seemed to have a steady stream of friends and students stop by, and it made my day each time. Monticello and the people there will forever have a special place in my heart!

Reed, Sam and Marcus hard at work

Mac and Mrs. Joy. She was a big help keeping Mac occupied as we worked.

Oh, my sweet Mac has no idea this is the last time he will get to play in his favorite toy for quite some time. We had to leave it at the house since it won't fit in our rental. Sad day...that ball pit has kept him happy and occupied for hours and hours!!
