The Big Move

I flew down to Salt Lake City, UT last weekend to help my brother, Derek, drive a uhaul up here to Washington. He finally decided he needed to be by his awesome (oldest) sister hahaha. He spoiled me while I was there by buying me some really fabulous Lush products-facial scrub and bath bombs-but I think in retrospect he was preparing me for the pending arrival to his apartment. Granted he had packed about a dozen boxes, but he had soooooooooooo much more that needed to be done. I immediately started packing, and packing, and packing, and cleaning, and packing, and uhaul packing, and more apartment packing-get my drift:) We packed until 2:30 a.m. then took a break to drive up to the temple and see the BYU-I campus before heading to bed.

Derek drove to Montana where we stayed the night at a friends home. We got in about 9 p.m. and then she took us to a nice little Irish Pub in Missoula.

I ended up driving most of the way from Montana here, which was hard since we couldn't go much over 65 as the trailer we were towing would start to sway. I didn't like that one bit! My ankles also swelled up sooo much. I have only ever swelled like that when I was 9 months pregnant. It was so uncomfortable and painful to say the least. It took a couple days for my ankles and feet to recover. But alas, we made it and he is now staying in Desi and Nicks basement until he finds something else.
