Update

Yes, we are still here, but Wednesday is coming fast! This weekend was CRAZY. All day Saturday we loaded the storage container, with the wonderful help of my husband's parents, and that also spilled into Sunday. We have nothing left in the house, except the things we are taking with us and some cleaning supplies. This morning, we dropped the kids at school and came back to the house where we are going to clean the carpets, patch and paint over nail holes and get the house ready for an open house that is happening next weekend. We are also having our cleaning people come over today to deep clean the wood floors, bathrooms and appliances. Our hope is when we leave the house tonight to head back to our friends house where we are staying, that the house is looking pretty good. Tomorrow we still have time to finish a few things, but we also have errands to finish too --I have to run to my office to get my new blackberry set up and pick up last minute things. Hubby wants to get a haircut and drop off our taxes at our accountant. I am also packing all of our suitcases today to make sure everything fits, we still have time to go buy another suitcase if we need to, but I am feeling pretty confident that I won't need another one. We have 10 right now (we can check 12). The POD is also going to be picked up today. Our cable is shut off tomorrow, and I don't know if I will have time or computer access to update much after that, so if I don't get a chance to update this blog before we leave, I will update it when we arrive (if I have an internet connection!). Hopefully we are going to have one very quickly, but it may take a few days. So for now, signing off from the US - signing back on from the UK in a few days. Wish us luck on our long flights with our girls -
