Well, somehow summer is over, and it's time to move Savannah into UNC again. I'm not sure how that happened so fast, but nonetheless, here we are! This year the feelings are all different since she knows what to expect and is SUPER excited about being an RA in the same dorm, but it's still an emotional time for us all.
Savannah warned us that the elevator usually breaks for RA move-in, but I was like no way... and guess what??? The elevator broke while we were trying to move her in. I wish I could adequately capture the chaos of move-in this year, but there just simply aren't words LOL
Being that she has her own room, she brought LOTS more stuff, and heavier stuff too. Fridge, microwave, huge storage shelves, etc all was piled on the elevator only for it to break, with Preston on it! He tried to call campus police to get him out, but the number was not working, so we prayed and did a lot of running up and down to different floors to try to get the stupid elevator to just move! Finally, it did get to her floor, but the doors wouldn't open. It was just insane. He lived to make it to dinner, and we somehow got everything in her room (although only a fraction of the room was really set up before we took a dinner break and then had to travel back to Charlotte)
I'm so mad that I didn't get a picture of him sitting on the elevator filled with Savannah's stuff, but he spent his time sending video updates to his friends and this is the start of one of them. :)
Here is my girl, all excited about her single room and the start of a new year!
We had dinner at Buns before leaving her with hugs and good luck for organizing.
She will eventually get all settled, I think. I plan to head back in a couple of weeks to take things that wouldn't fit into two SUVs . . . so it will all be okay. But one thing is for sure, none of us will soon forget the insanity of the year two move-in (even though she was literally the only person moving in the entire building!)
