We're here!

Two weeks down! We have now lived in Boise for a full two weeks and my has it flown! Here is a quick recap of our last few weeks.

First off, Chase graduated! I am so proud of him. His last semester was filled with tons of group projects and tests. He now has a degree in Business Entrepreneurship from the Jon M. Huntsman School of Business at Utah State University. Isn't he so handsome?!
Both of our families were able to travel to Logan to help us celebrate. We are so lucky to be blessed with families that are so loving and supportive. We had a little graduation lunch at good ol' "Cafe Sabor".
We had to get one last "True Aggie" kiss in while we were here. Its too bad it was such a rainy day though!


Chase's best friend Tate was graduating with a business degree at the same time so they got to do the traditional "Graduation March". It is a really neat tradition where all of the graduates meet at the quad and walk to the Spectrum together. Families line the sides and cheer them on as they march to the Graduation song. Chase and Tate have been great friends since their freshman year at USU. We are sad to be leaving him and his adorable wife Jodi. I couldn't help but get choked up (aka "bawl my eyes out") during the closing remarks of commemoration. It was the part where President Albrecht talked about how we all leave breadcrumbs just like hansel and grettal to find our way back "home" to Utah State...how no matter what life brings us in the future, we will ALWAYS find our way back to Logan to remember the wonderful times we had here. This is exactly how we feel! What a wonderful phase of life, and we are closing the door. As sad as it is, we really are eager to start the next stage of life.

After enjoying all of the graduation activities we got busy packing and loading up our little home into a trailer. It was bitter-sweet to say the least!
