We made it

So we packed up everything on Thursday...we were planning on doing it around 5, but because Craig's brother, who was bringing up their snowmobile trailor to use as our UHAUL, had to come earlier, we had to quickly finish up our packing and change our plans.  The bad news is we were expecting a few people from our ward to come help out, and changing the time to 12:30 on a thursday resulted in most of them not being able to make it.  The good news is the weather turned sour fast and was raining/snowing by 3 that day when we were wrapping things up and if we would have waited till 5 we would have been moving in that....so CHEERS.!  Thanks TED and DINKO and MIKE for being able to make it and help us out!!!!! (as well as craig's parents and Craigs brother Chris and his wife Karen)

And just a side note:  Kaydence got sick with a crouping cough and fever (and now throwing up) and I didn't want her to be around any of your kids... so if you were expecting a call to watch them while we packed, that was the reason....not because we don't like you, don't want you watching our kids, or think your a bad parent...

So we cleaned all friday and drove down in the afternoon and pulled into Emmett around 9:30 last night.  My computer is still being held hostage in someone's truck and not having it/and or the internet for a few days has been killing me.  I feel lost!  I am currently using Craig's laptop which has been out of order too, because he dropped it!!!! resulting in the loss of all his Law school papers/outlines/notes......and with a 20 page paper due and finals around the corner it has been a very sad weekend for the Atkinson Family.

So we are here and going to unpack everything today, and have 2 weeks to get everything organized before the kids and I fly down to California to spend a few weeks with my family before Craig is done with law school and joins us for Christmas.

We are also hoping to catch Twilight sometime today with Craig's sister and Niece who are also big fans.
