Yesterday, May 30th, was a big day for us. The movers came and loaded up all of our belongings. Never having gone through a big move like this, it was, actually, quite interesting to watch the process. Andy and I had packed everything up. Since we had to be out of our house so quickly, all of our things had already been moved to our friend, Kellie's, house. It made it much easier for the movers because everything was in the garage. Still, anything that was not in a box, was wrapped in brown padded paper. Even backpacks full of clothes were wrapped. Talk about a lot of recycling when we get all unpacked in Utah! While I stayed with the movers, Andy took his truck down to the port so that could be shipped to Seattle. We leave Alaska on June 6th, fly into Seattle, pick up the truck (which will be waiting for us at the airport) and start our road trip to Utah. Even though it is only a 15-20 hour drive from Seattle to Salt Lake City, we plan on making it about a week-long trip. We'd like to stop by Yellowstone and any other place we see along the way. It's all just part of the adventure...
The heaping pile of brown paper-wrapped belongings
It's hard to believe that our entire life can fit into 3 large wooden crates (4 if you count the crate for the sofa)!
Of course, I had to include a photo of Cooper. This is, mostly, what he did while the movers were working. Andy and I are both quite surprised by how well Cooper is adjusting to all of the changes.
