Moving on!

I can't believe that our lives here in Utah are coming to an end. I finished school last Thursday, never been happier, and this week we are moving! Its really exciting but at the same time it is sad. We have made so many good friends here that I am going to miss! So I needed to start packing this week but my frined Jamie came back to Utah for a couple days and the weather was so nice I decided to put it off! On Monday we went to Lagoon, which isn't normally my thing but was so much fun. People in Utah can't BELIEVE I have never been there so now I have! We went back to Jamie's parents house and roasted marshmallows and made s'mores-which are my fave! She and her sis-in-law came back to my house and we had a slumber party since we were all husbandless. THen the next day the weather was SO nice that we layed out all day. Well the weather was nice again on Wednesday so we got some more sun, probably a little too much but oh well! It was so fun having a friend in town, I get sad when there are things I want to do but have no one to do anything with, so thanks Jamie for hanging out with me all 3 days you were here!!!

Well now its Thursday and I figured I really need to crack down and start the packing. I have been dreading it, and once I started I realized why! Where to start? It is so overwhelming, we have more stuff than I realized! I feel bad I called and almost started crying to Chad because I was feeling stressed, he told me stop packing and he will do it all when he gets in on Sunday, obviously I am not gonna not pack but it was nice of him to make the offer. He has been gone for almost 3 months and I am done being apart from him. It has definately been a challenge to be so far away from one another, but we both realize how much we need eachother. We aren't too sure what is in store for us after the summer but that is what makes this whole process kind of exciting! We have nothing holding us back, so we will see where life takes us! As for now it is taking me back to packing!

I LOVE LA!!

Yay! The Lakers are the NBA Champions! Its been so much fun watching them through out the whole playoffs. Sometimes I wonder what my neighbors think because I have a tendency to yell and clap a lot during the games. Chad and I were able to go to a couple games this season which was a lot of fun, its something that definately brings us closer. Can't wait for next season!!!!

Need a place to live?

We are trying to get out of our contract about a month and half early and need someone to take over our contract. If any of you know someone who is looking for a place in Orem, let me know!! Here is the blog I made with all the pictures, so pass the word!

I miss him already!

I love Texas, not just because that is where Chad is but also because it is beautiful!!! There are big trees everywhere, and it is so green! The weather was great for me, as I spent most of my time at the pool when Chad was working. It was such a short trip but that just means I am gonna have to go back! I was really bad at taking pictures but here they are:

This is Chad and his friend Kory trying to catch a turtle in this swamp. A few years ago Chad was working in N. Carolina and caught a turtle then, he had it for a few years and now he wants another one.

We all went out to dinner at Texas Roadhouse, I think it tastes better in Texas!

Glass Cube Design



So this is my latest project from floral design, and my favorite to do! It was so fun and turned out so cute (I think). These are the most popular centerpieces for weddings and are so easy. Can you believe they start at about $40 per cube! Don't bother paying that, just get the flowers and I will make one for you, I have so much fun doing it!

P.S. I started working today, yep I said it, I am working. Just a part time job at the Security 1 office but it will help keep me busy and give me a little extra cash, so I don't feel so guilty when I buy myself presents :)
P.S.S. 1 1/2 more days till I am in Dallas!
