Moving HOME

Well, since I am working on the back end of the blog today, I guess I could write another post since it has been so long for me. :) 

We are back in ALABAMA now!!! (insert heavenly choir music now) Lol! I am so glad to be back. Our move back was crazy since I came back with the Uhaul, my 4Runner, our two dogs and all of our stuff a few days before Matthew could leave. Of course I couldn't have gotten it all back by myself without the help of my daddy and his friend that came along to drive one of the extra vehicles. 

We met up in Tallulah, LA where my dad took over the reigns of the Uhaul and his buddy drove my parent's vehicle back. But of course we had to move everything around at a truck stop because my sweet babies would've been freaking out if we would have made them ride in a Uhaul with some strange man..Lol! So everything that was in the back of the 4Runner had to be moved into my parent's ride so that my spoiled rotten dogs could have the whole back to themselves... 

We made it back safely only to find that Matthew, still in Louisiana, had the keys to the lock on the back of the Uhaul.... So, I had no way of getting ANYTHING out!! Luckily, we had to stay in a hotel my last night at Fort Polk, so I had packed a few days worth of clothes in a suitcase which just so happened to be in the 4Runner rather than the Uhaul...I had also kept the dogs food and belongings with me as well!! (He had told me we needed to go ahead and throw it in the back of the Uhaul before we left the hotel) I love when I don't listen to my husband and I end up being right. :) 

But anywho! Matthew made it back a few days later and we got the Uhaul unloaded into the storage building. He got a job driving a truck and has made a few trips to California already since we have moved back. We are both loving being back home!!! Both of our parents live in the same town, so we get to see them both which is great!! 

For some reason I cannot upload any more pictures right now, so I'll leave you with this one. I yelled ROLL TIDE and snapped it as I was crossing into Alabama on my way back. Almost instantly I felt a wave of relief come over me, because I knew I was HOME.
