THE FIRST TO GO

The van was the first thing to get loaded and head towards California. It was picked up on Monday afternoon.....

.....and it's here already!! The van arrived in San Diego today -- with Rena's bunny safely inside!

Rena's sad bunny story:

Before the van was loaded Rena chose 2 things that she wanted to take on the airplane with her - her build-a-bear bunny was one of the things that she wanted to take -- which was fine until she fell asleep in our van while picking up the rental van and we forgot to carry the bunny in the house when we carried Rena in. Needless to say Rena was not very happy when we realized that bunny would be making the trip cross-country in the van rather than on the airplane with Rena.

Rena's other thing that she chose to take on the airplane with her was her new Koala bear that she got at her last dance class. Unfortunately when we left to get the rental car Rena left Koala at the house and the packers packed it up. They had no idea where it got packed and at that point we had way too many boxes to start opening them up looking for it. Luckily, Rena had one other bunny that was still out that she was happy to bring on the airplane with her -- we kept a tight hold on that bunny until everything was packed up and we were on our way!!! :)
