Moving Adventures!

We have been pretty busy since school got out, but its ok because we are on summer break for 5 MONTHS!! We had quite the adventure moving out of our little house in Logan. First, we got a phone call on Sunday morning from U-haul saying that the truck we needed was not in stock (which we reserved a week before), so they would give us a FREE up grade to the 26 foot truck. Well, not only did we not want the 26 foot truck, there was no way it could fit in our drive way. So we decided to call around and see if any other company had a truck in Logan. After an hour of phone calls we found a U-haul in Salt Lake. That actually worked out because we were heading down ther anyway. When we got back to Logan we immediatley started loading the truck. It wasn't 30 minutes into packing and we found ourselves in the biggest rain storm of the year. We had to stop loading the truck because the water was getting into the truck. Chase came inside and helped pack some more boxes. Finally the rain stopped so we opened up the U-haul and got most of the boxes in that night, so we called it quits. Next, I was trying to set up our blow up mattress and of course the pump barely worked. So we made a trip to Wal-Mart at 12:30 am and bought a new one. With our luck so far, we got home and found out that the pump we bought had to be charged for 10 hours before use! We couldn't sleep on the hard ground so Chase climbed into the U-Haul and naturally all of the blankets were in the back and bottom of the truck. By the time we got the blankets and set up the bed it was 2 am and all we wanted to do was go to bed. After Chase had a midnight snack we went to bed, only to wake up and clean some more. Luckily the in the morning, packing went a lot smoother and we were on the road to St. George. All in all we had quite the adventure moving and don't mind waiting a little longer unitl our next move. Here is a video we took while packing.
