Sweet Home Alabama

After 17 hours on the road, our family is complete once more. The trip was long, but it went smoothly. The beginning was difficult--I learned to persevere and the girls and I triumphed over the cargo bag. Lauren sat on the roof of my expedition to help me get the straps tied on.



Once we got going, it went well. We were packed in like sardines, especially the girls and dogs in the back seat. There were a few times I looked back and saw Charlie laying on both girls, since it was the only place for him.



We were welcomed with love. It's good to be with family. Larry and Stacy have been gracious enough to help us and let us stay with them. Allen is much happier to have us with him. Now we have a storage unit to put all our stuff in, and we are looking for somewhere to live. Since the tornados, it is somewhat difficult to find these things. Still, we are slowly making the adjustment and I think we will thrive here once we get settled.

Something fun is watching all six dogs in the back yard. The pugs were a little scared of Max in the beginning, but they are doing better. So far, things are coming along.
