Ewell family big move


Hello,


Everyone I talked to suggested that I start a blog of our big move to Florida.
Well, well, well, were do I start?
We moved out of our house on June 20-22 we moved into a really nice vacation rental in Draper on Traverse mountain. It was fully furnished and really nice. We got the see the hang gliders from the front and back of our house. It was fun just to sit and watch them.



this town house next to the playground is where we stayed.
We live here for about 1 month and moved out on July 22.
here is Brayton with a view from our townhouse.
We moved to Florida on July 22, that was a very long day.
We meet Gary's sister Christine at the airport so she could take the car. Then we loaded all our stuff out of the car and into the airport. We had a lot of stuff. We each had one suitcase plus we all had two carry-on's each. So after we checked our bags in , we were carried about 11 bags through security and on to the plane it was crazy. long story shorter we arrived in Florida abut 11-11:30 p.am. then we got our luggage and a car a left to go get dinner. After dinner we headed to our temp home. By the time we got home it was after 12:00 am by the time we were in bed it was after 2:00am.
We got up the next morning Wednesday and were off to go pick up our new car, it took us about a hour or so. we drove to a city by Tampa, called New port Ritchie and got our car. ( I don't have a picture yet) then I drove the new car ( I love how it drives) and Gary drove the rental car and we headed back to the airport to return the car. By the time we ate dinner we didn't get home until after 8:00. The kids just took it easy, went swimming every day and then on Saturday, we hired help to help us unload our big semi truck of stuff. After we unloaded our stuff we all went swimming in the pool This is the pool at our house.
Sunday we all took a break and spent the day at Epcot. We all had a lot of fun
On Tuesday I drove around to all the schools and got the registration forms. It was quite crazy. On Wednesday I took the kids to a clinic and got there physicals and all there shots for school, that was quite long and interesting. Now we are just waiting to get a letter notarized of proof of where we live and then the kids will be ready for school.
well I will stop for now before you fall asleep. I will try to keep in touch
love the Ewell's, Holly, Gary and Boys
