• Today was a fun day. Robby and I left around 8 to slowly make our way to Arkadelphia. We stopped a few times to do a few shops. We had taken one extra row of seats out of the white van and hoped that would be enough.
• Just like last year, moving out was super easy. We met Anderson first, and he had his few things sitting outside his door. It was two trips for us, but we had a great parking spot so it wasn't bad. 
• Then we moved on to Reagan's room. We made a few trips to her room, and Anderson made it over to help us just in time to bring the fridge down. She had her things sitting outside her doorway too ready to go.
• However, her car was also loaded down, and since she was going to stay in Arkadelphia today for a graduation party, she wanted for her people to be able to ride with her. So we unloaded her car into the van which just about filled it up. My kids must be good packers, but this is the second time Reagan's car load of stuff has filled up the white van!
• We made it home, and Anderson dutifully helped us unload the white van. He had already unloaded his car and moved a desk to the driveway. Then he helped move the desk into someone's car when they came to pick it up (that did make me feel good-I was able to get something out of the house even though Reagan and Anderson were bringing a lot of things into the house.)
• I can't really believe that Reagan has finished her second year of college and is half way done, and Anderson has already finished his first year. The bonus room is pretty full-they each have a corner, and Graham is starting to add things to his corner for school too.
• I picked Keaton up from work and took her to party. While she was there, I ran to Walmart before picking up Keaton and taking her to a friend's house. Now, someone will have to bring her home at some point tonight.
• Robby is out running errands, Graham and Anderson are playing volleyball, and Campbell just got back from feeding her chickens. It has been a busy evening so far, and I just want to sit on the couch!
