Moving

The following is what our lives have been for the last few weeks:

Sept 6: started packing for our trip home from England
Sept 7: Flew to Salt Lake City from England
Sept 8: Started packing our Orem house
Sept 9: Aaron (brother-in-law) arrived in Salt Lake City to help us pack and move
Sept 11: Paul and Aaron began the long drive to Ohio
Sept 12: Julia and Anson flew to Michigan to stay with her sister Lauren
Sept 14: Aaron and Paul arrived in Ohio with the Uhaul, met by Lauren, Julia, and Anson.
Sept 20 (today) still unpacking and organizing the house...

I am amazed that I haven't gone stark raving mad yet. We are getting so close to being done. The ward here has been absolutely wonderful. The day we drove in with the Uhaul, 8-10 people from the ward showed up and helped us unpack and watch Anson. It only took us an hour and a half to unload the truck. Wow. Since then, we have been invited to dinner twice, Anson has been babysat 3 times, 2 of our neighbors have brought cookies and we got a free washer from one of them, someone lent us their car this whole week, and another person is giving us some dining room chairs. Insane. We have been remarkably blessed.
