Last day at Camp Lejeune


Today was the last day for the kids to play. Ethan and Zevi did that little pre-deployment thing where they fight so the leaving doesn't hurt so much. It was cute! They also buried an airplane together in between our yards. I am sure there is some symbolism there, but I am way too tired to figure it out. Why, you may ask? Well. the scavengers woke me this morning at 6:30 AM!!!!!! I am more than tired.
Now we are in the O Club for the night. The house is empty and echo-y. Here there is TV and internet service!! Woo hoo!!
I want to send a big thanks to some of my friends here at Camp Lejeune: Jill for setting up this blog (and the music as well) and Amy for the support, helping take down the shelves (duh) and the bedding last night. There are no words for what Gia has meant to me and done for my family, so I will just say thanks for EVERYTHING!! Love ya!

We are on our way to Raleigh tomorrow for the impending snow storm. It is also my birthday and moving is a perfect present!

These movers would not be high on my recommend list. Mordechai went back to check the house tonight and found a WHOLE DRAWER OF SILVERWARE they missed. On top of the vases and an expensive mat! Anyway, we have loaded down the car and van. Little nervous about the poundage on the van. Say a little prayer that we are good to go!

Will try to post in a few days, as we continue on our journey.

  1. What a cute picture of the neighborhood kids! I hate that I didn't get to know you better but am at least glad that we became friends right here at the end. I look forward to keeping in touch with you and hearing about the tale of three schwabs! And you are so welcome for the help with the blog. If you need anything, just let me know! Keep in touch.
