On May 10 Will and I graduated from the University of Idaho- even though it's a month later I still can't believe we were there for 4 years and actually have a degree. The graduation was very tiring and we thank all of our family and friends that were able to attend. We also had a graduation party afterwards- lots and lots of food, chatting, and gifts. I didn't get many pictures from graduation but here is one of Will and I:
After Graduation we finished working- we both finished our commitments to Residence Life- Will worked a little bit for facilities and I finished working with the Latah County Youth Advocacy Council. We went to see Annie and Steve for Memorial Day Weekend. We went to Lake Crescent in Olympic National Park- It was BEAUTIFUL! The bluest water I have ever seen! We had such a great time. Poor Annie is 5 months pregnant and made the trip with great ease :) She even hiked back to a waterfall which totaled about 2 miles- I'm sure the baby really enjoyed all the ca motion. Owen is so fun to be around- he is full of life and energy- I don't know how Annie and Steve keep up with him. We also took our washer and dryer to their new home, coincidently the hose to the washing machine wasn't pushed down far enough and we had to clean up a flooded mess :) Here are some photos from that little trip:
We also had to say our goodbyes. This was probably the worst part. There are a lot of people that we won't be seeing for more than two years so it's kind of hard to say goodbye to them. We went to the Broiler with Cisco, Kaui, and Kaila. I love that little girl and saying goodbye to her was one of the harder things. Saying goodbye to little miss Sadie, Nick, Joy and Brenna was also hard- we went to 1/2 price appetizers at Applebees to say farwell- how I'm going to miss that as well :) I also had to say goodbye to the Knott's! This was awful- I'm going to miss Mauri and her family- She has done so much for me and I can't even begin to tell you how grateful I am for her friendship and love!
On Thursday we loaded up the Budget Truck and towed the pickup. We got 8 freaking miles to the gallon which made for a long drive and expensive with gas at almost $4.00 a gallon! We unloaded all of our stuff into our shed that we bought and put on my grandparents property. It's only 8X8 and fit all of our stuff!! So now we're down in the Boise Valley trying to relax before we depart for Miami July 1 and Jamaica on July 3!
