Curt's Packing Job

I thought this was funny and had to capture the moment. Curt's had 3 business trips (4 countries) in 3 weeks. We are both trying to get out to all our offices this year to give support to the managers, staff, meet the clients, etc. Many of our offices have not had the proper support from HQ so it's time we get in to train and get to know everyone as not all staff get to Budapest HQs.

Anyhow, for those of you that know Curt and I know that we are both quite similar in personality. Neither of us are very good with organization. My friend, Kerry, who is unusually organized and neat comes to our home and cringes when she watches me look for something simple like car keys, my camera, a DVD and have no clue where to begin my search. In our defense, we have never permanently lost anything important! Things have definitely went missing for periods of time but they always turn up... eventually....

I'm obviously getting off topic here as the point of this post is to show Curt's packing technique. Not that mine is drastically different or better but I think it's funny. He sort of spreads everything out in the family room and then packs. It's hard in Hungary as there are no built in closets in most of the homes. We've had a lot of cabinets built but unfortunately our bedroom is so small that a lot of our clothes are not in our bedroom and not even on the same floor as our bedroom. So, we get a good work out on the stairs when looking for a particular clothing item.


You can see one of the balloons left from T's birthday. Erika and Fanny must have blown up about 30 after he went to bed on Saturday night so he'd wake up to a house full of balloons and decorations!
