Joshua is here and we start to pack the trailer...with a little help from our friends!

 November 3rd was a big packing day.
Joshua had gotten here the night before with this 24' trailer.

 Baxter wasn't too sure what was going on.
 I had been packing for months...a little at a time.
 The week before Joshua got here, I was madly packing...
I had a code.
Yellow tape = don't put in storage.
Blue tape = fragile
 It was crazy seeing our home like this.
 It was time to start loading.




 Brandon...one of Gabe's long-time great buddies...said he'd come help.
 He recruited another buddy - Nathaniel - to also come.
Bringing the large pieces of furniture from upstairs started.

 Joshua must be a masterful Jenga player...
because he packed that trailer to the hilt!






This was the one we were most concerned with...the piano!
 They did it...and it didn't appear to be that difficult!




 The Crew!
Ron, Joshua, Brandon, Nathaniel, and Carly.
 Ron had to have this board, as he had been accused of ...
well, not being as involved with the hard labor as others.
 Oh Brandon!
This is one special guy...
like I said, he and Gabe have been buddies for a long time.
 He was like another son...he was reminiscing about old times...
eating a bit & resting before basketball games...
playing football in the front yard...
lots of good times!
 He's definitely a special...a very special friend of ours!
Thank you, Brandon!
 The trailer was filling up...
 Baxter...he was a bit unsure of what was happening.
He kept taking Ron's sandal so we wouldn't leave without him.
 This guy...Joshua...
there is NO way we could have even come close to doing this without him.
 Joshua is amazing...
Amazing with a capital A...
 Yep, he's strong...
physically, mentally, emotionally!

Ummm?
What to do next?
Let's wait till tomorrow.
