Our Final "Goodbye"


We planned on getting up and leaving before the crack of dawn on June 9, but it didn't exactly happen that way. It took us longer to load the "odds and ends" than we thought it would. Then when I was putting the final things in the van, Lucky, the cat, ran out of the van. After I got those things in I couldn't find her anywhere. We called and called for her all over the neighborhood. If it hadn't been just 3 days after her spay and declaw surgery she would have bee out of "luck"! After we looked for 45 minutes Karen offered to fix us breakfast. After a while Justin looked out and saw her in the front yard so he snatched her up and locked her in the van. We were frustrated to have such a late start, but we made it by 9:00 that night. (It took the cat 3 hours to settle down in the van and quit meowing!)

Cookies For Carter's


The night before we left Nebraska, Karen threw us a going away party. It was sad to say "goodbye" to our friends, but we were glad she did it for us. Thanks to all of you who came to say "goodbye", the pictures I took of everyone are going to make a fun scrapbook page! (I hope Karen will still talk to me when she sees this photo:) ) Thanks, Karen!
