FULL weekend ahead! (and Dolly went to visit my parents)

My parents live in the Rio Grande Valley and are sitting through probably their 15th hurricane ever. So far Dolly has been "less eventful than most Northers" says my mom. Good to hear! We had some good rain last night that may be an effect of Dolly, but no complaints here. Jonas, who has always been spooked by thunder, ended up in our bed around 4:00 and Carleigh woke up at 7:00 oblivious to the whole thing.

Friday starts our crazy wonderful weekend. We are going to load up a UHaul with the biggest stuff Friday evening (we're meeting at the apartment around 5:30, for any of you who want to help- you will be fed!). We will unload that truck as soon as we can at the new house, and anything that doesn't make it on the truck will be moved over the next week in our own vehicles. That's a very nice thing about having a week of overlap- no real rush.

Saturday morning Jonas has his last swim meet on the other side of Houston, so we can write off 6 hours of Saturday. Craig works Saturday morning, so no one will be in either house until after 1:00! Then the boys are going to a Monster Truck Rally Saturday night, and Carleigh is going to a Hannah Montana party. That gives us about 3 hours on Saturday to do anything involved with moving!

Then Sunday--- blah blah blah for most the day- I'm sure we will make a few runs from the apartment to the house, and we will unpack a few boxes, put a few beds together. But the most important thing of all happens that evening. Jonas is being baptised! It'll be a wonderful end to a busy weekend. I can't wait to see it, and I will definitely post pictures of that!!!
