Well the moving truck took all our kids things away yesterday - that was really hard for them, since none of them really want to move........
I think it will be fine and I think they will really like Houston, once they get over the shock of having to leave Austin. They are only about 5 minutes from the ocean and 20 miles from Galveston Island. They love the beach and those kinds of activities, so I know they will like it after they get there. But just wait till the first hurricane is headed their way!
The traffic is horrible, and they don't like that, the humidity if awful and they really don't like that, but there are loads of things to do and I know it will be OK.
It will be really cozy here for a few weeks - one of the hardest things is that they have a cat that we can't let out of the bedroom because she will go out the doggie door and might be gone! She was a rescue and had been abandoned outdoors so she LOVES going outside - but they have never let her except for her accidentally shooting out when the door is open. Since she is in a strange place, and if she got outside, we are afraid she might run off - which she probably wouldn't but we just can't take that chance. So, she is in the back bedroom where Abigail is. She's Abi's cat so she is perfectly fine staying back there with her - but the Yorkie boys want to (ahem) "visit" her - which translates into "chase" her. We had to tape plexiglass outside the door so they don't destroy the door by scratching on it!!!
