Good-bye South Carolina, Hello Illinois!

Let the fun begin! The truck is here and we are ready to load! Eeekkk! This make our move so real...


the girls camping out in the basement on our last night in Clemson. They, of course, thought it was the coolest thing ever…


last dinner at the Smokin' Pig…oh how we will miss you and your sweet potato fries!

Mimi and papa came down to help us finsih packing the house and loading the truck. I.could.not.have.survived with out them!!!! Oh we will miss being semi-close to them:(:(

a final good-bye to the Whites…so sad:(

Our small group is AWESOME! They came and helped load our entire house up into the haul (in the rain!) and then the guys took off from work and actually drove the haul up to Illinois and helped unload it. we were really struggling with how we were going to be able to make this move happen since Andy could't come back since they were in the middle of football season. Some guys in our small group just stepped up to the plate and said they would do it all for me. I cannot thank them and their wives enough for what that meant to us. We are so thankful for their serving hearts! we will miss them all (not just because of what they did) but because of who they are as people!

here's the crew helping to pack the haul

after a full day of driving, we finally made it!!! Home sweet home! this was the first time I saw the house…Andy did a great job picking it out!:)

the park was 6 houses down from our house...

and it had an awesome playground! Woo-hoo!!!

on day 2, MC decided she was ready to go back to Clemson and live with Sydney…sorry girl, you won't make it on that bike;)
