Home Sweet Temporary Home

Well we are officially homeless. That is to say we are totally out of our house on Seminole Tr. We are living temporarily at the Holiday Inn for the next three days. We close on Seminole tomorrow and then our house late Tuesday afternoon. It feels weird to be staying in a hotel in the town where we live. Kinda like you are out of town but not.....
The packing went well and we had the truck loaded in about 2 and 1/2 hours. We slept on our mattresses on the floor last night and then loaded them up this morning. We relocated the moving truck, both cars and the dog to the hotel. To keep busy today we took Bailey to see High School Musical 3 at the movies. Sarah is away at a band competition and should be in tonight. We also went to see the Vietnam Moving Wall that is here visiting in Tifton. Tifton is the only town in Georgia getting the wall this year. For those of you that don't know what it is, it is a replica of the wall that is in Washington that contains over 58000 names of vietnam vets that died in the war. What an emotional experience to actually see all the names. Although the wall is 1/3 of the size of the one in Washington, it still was very impressive in size. I had to take 3 separate shots of it from a far distance just to get all of it. Although I can't download it on here cuz my cord to my camera is packed. I will have to catch you all up on it when I get settled in the new house. We really were impressed with the whole thing though.
Well, we are off to our fall festival for Halloween at church tonight. Bailey is dressed as a present. She is "God's gift to the world" Too funny! I will post pictures of that too at a later date.
Well, I do have internet service here so you can drop me an email or call me on my cell for the next few days. Our phone should be up and working again soon in a few days. Same number....different address.
Hugs to all!

Hey~you might be temporary homeless but it comes with maid service and room service. So that is a little bit of a bright side.
