Well the house got packed up after 5 days of packing with a visit over the weekend from Grandma Sue and Grandpa Jeff and Uncle Casey. It was great getting to see my folks and Case before we left. Dad helped Kevin mow the yard one last time and we ate out on the deck with the card table and chairs. We tried eating up as much of our extra food as possible. I also gave up all of my spices and aerosol cleaning supplies to mom and Casey. We ended up moving into a hotel Tuesday night because they wanted to pack up our beds.
We got to stay on the Executive level floor at the Holiday Inn in downtown Peoria because of all the points Kevin and I had built up from traveling with our jobs. Free drinks and appetizers at night!!! Addie enjoyed taking baths in the hotel sink...we all had to adjust to not having any of our possessions except for what would fit in our 7 suitcases. We will have access to our air shipment when we get into our house in mid August but it is certainly scary to be completely liquid...no house, no cars, no furniture or anything. We still had fun together...Addie got to sleep between mom and dad so she got a little spoiled, but it goes to show you that worldly possessions don't bring you happiness. We had a lot of fun without them. Thursday night our friends had a going away party for us at the Bosely's and it was a blast.
