Leaving the homestead

After a more than hectic day, we struggled through getting our house packed up into two vehicles (thank you Stephanie) and gave away a bunch of stuff that we couldn't take (more than we wanted). Avery was saying "Bye, Bye" to everything including the empty house (tear) and we said our last goodbyes to the friends we won't see in quite a while (more tears). Well, suffice it to say that it was mentally and physically exhausting, but that part is over for now. It was strange to see our house empty. Now we need to consolidate what we brought home into my grandparents attic from their basement, pack our bags, do last minute shopping, and visit with friends and family until Friday. No pressure.--Lucas
