Day 118 Don't drop the china!

Another day of packing, but first, we got to enjoy some time with our homeschool friends at co op.  We're going to really miss our group of 6 families and 19 kids!  We only have one more session anyway, so at least we won't miss out on anything.  Then 3 women came over and helped me pack up the special dishes in the china cabinet and around the tops of the kitchen cupboards.  THEN, Jared packed up all the DVD's and CD's.  It took TWO medium uHaul boxes to hold all of them!  I guess we like our movies!  By the way, the kids enjoy telling other kids that they are finished school for the year.  It doesn't bother me that we finished early this year.  I tell myself we'll do some school when we get to Indiana, but in reality, we won't do much.  Grandma might need to pitch in for a bit just so the kids won't get bored though.  Thankfully, it's been much nicer outside, so the kids can out and not sit in front of electronics all day while we pack.  Meanwhile, I don't know how other families survive, but packing with a very active toddler is nearly impossible!  Between tripping over his toys, or trying to catch him (again) from falling off of the couch (again), it's never ending! I even forgot to put him down for his 2nd nap!  Praise the Lord that Abishai fell asleep easily tonight.  Sometimes he's hard to put down if he doesn't get that 2nd nap.  Anyway, here are our pictures of the day to prove what we accomplished.

More boxes packed! Yeah!

The only way we can return the wayward toddler to his home.

YES! I captured that grin!  This kid smiles with his WHOLE face and WHOLE body!
