Last weekend was a crazy, crazy weekend. First of all I have been packing up everything we own for the last month while Seth was practically living at the hospital. Luckily he did have a few days off before packing the truck to help with the last stuff.
Friday afternoon we picked up the truck. Friday around 4 pm our help started showing up. By 7 pm the truck was pretty much packed. Saturday morning we woke up and I started cleaning and Seth was packing the stuff we needed the last night and rearranging some stuff in the truck. We left Cooperstown for the last time around 11 am. I was definitely feeling some sadness as we drove away. I really enjoyed the year we spent there. We reached our home in Rochester at 2:45 pm and help came at 3 pm. Our truck was unloaded in an hour. It was amazing. We had such great help on both sides of the move. I am so grateful for the church. We couldn't have done it without all the members who came to help. THANK YOU!!!
We then returned the truck and went to dinner. We put the girls to bed and then made sure we had everything ready to go to Utah. We woke up the girls and 5 am Sunday morning and drove to my cousins house so she could take us to the airport for our 7:30 flight. Thank you Seleta for waking up so early. You are the best.
After 7 hours of travel time we arrived in Utah. I am so glad to be here. We are having such a great time reconnecting with family and friends. It has been two years since we have been home. This trip was much needed. We will be here in Utah for a month. Seth is working at Logan Regional Hospital with a radiologist and has a great schedule. It was pretty weird to move in to our house and then lock it up and leave for a month, but I am very happy to have the break.

Oh my gosh! That does sound crazy - moving and then flying out immediately after? Sounds like craziness in packing and trying to find and have all the right stuff in the right places!
A month!? Oh, wait - I hope I don't just miss you - we get there the 8th of July. Will you guys be gone already? We'd love to see you!
CRAZY-I can't believe you got everything packed by yourself, moved, then flew out the next morning!! What an insane month! Enjoy your little trip to Utah and I'm really hoping we get to see you! Can't wait to see pictures of your new house, congrats!!!

Natalie - we will be at Andy's wedding. I am so excited to see everyone.

I am so excited for you and all that is happening and all you've accomplished. Enjoy the break.
You did it! We hope your month in Utah is wonderful! Miss you guys. Oh! We need to get your new address- Christmas cards and stuff, ya know.
Wow. Sounds like you will be enjoying Utah. Good luck when you get back with all the settling.
Jenilee, I can't believe it's already been a year... it seems like you were just loading the truck up here in Westchester! I am so excited for you and I can't wait to hear about your house (did you buy?)... drop me a note when you get a free minute... we miss you guys like crazy! Hugs, Wendy
