Packing and Moving List

I have always loved reading the packing list for the pioneers before they crossed the plains. If it is fascinating to me maybe someday my list will be interesting to someone, maybe grandkids (what are DVDs?). OK, highly unlikely, but I need to make a list anyway so I'm going to post it.

1. Five outfits for each child (also, one skirt or dress and one pair of pants and one fleece)
2. two pairs of shoes for each child (wear another)
3. swimsuits
4. moving file (to include school records, household goods inventory, van paperwork, orders)
5. diaper bag (1 carry on)
6. purse (passports, immunization records, wallet, camera, make-up, addresses for hotel and car dealership)
7. collapsed dog crate and bag
8. extra camera battery and charger
9. garmin and charger
10. dvd player and dvd folder
11. bibs
12. Ellyn's meds
13. teething tablets
14. extra binky
15. ziplock of dog food
16. backpack of entertainment for kids
17. CDs for our road trips
18. laptops and chargers
19. scriptures
20. some jewelry
21. blow dryer and toiletries
22. pjs
23. books
24. snacks
I mailed one box with some towels and sheets and the girls' scooters and a few clothes and I think I'm going to have to mail another before we leave. Hey, if anyone is reading this and can think of something I'm not thinking of please feel free to comment.

A New Family Picture that does not involve unshowered bodies or matching clothing

D-Day, 65 Years Ago Today

I am in awe of all of the brave men that fought on the beaches that day. Their courage is something I cannot even comprehend. I feel very privileged that our family was able to visit the beaches of Normandy and get just the tiniest glimpse of the sacrifice made by so many. I am so proud of our American soldiers, time and again they step up to the plate and do what is asked of them. Thank you.
