a little update on us

I have so many things I need to blog about in order to catch up, but there is no way I am going to do that in the month of May, so I'll do a little update. 

First of all, have I mentioned that Nate got a job with Amazon and we are moving to Seattle in July?  Cause he did, and we are, and it's pretty awesome and slightly crazy.  I mean, who needs sunlight?! ;)

May is officially our crazy month.  Nate had his last class of MBA school, EVER, last Friday.  He took his take-home final on Monday.  Soo... he's finished.  Completely.  AHH!  I am incredibly proud but that is all I will say for now because Nate and his graduation deserves its own post.  

Last Saturday we hosted a big brunch at our house with most of the LDS MBA families here at Duke (aka our Durham family). It was a beautiful morning with great food and even better company.  We honestly are so sad to be leaving such great friends (*tear*).  Luckily, we'll get to spend time with many of these guys at the beach this week.  

Miller's, Busby's, Hamilton's, Holm's, Oakes', Wright's, Culbertson's, Candrian, Ricks', McIntyre's, and Hardie's.  Missing the Giles.

As I said before, May is our crazy month and this is why I will be MIA for a bit on the blogosphere. We have...

Beach house for a week with friends.

Papa Rik comes into town.

Grandma and Grandpa Wright come into town.

Graduation Day.

Mother's Day.

Thailand for 10 days.

We'll have about a week to get our house packed up, scrubbed clean, and we'll be on our way (by the end of May)

Then June:

House hunting trip in Seattle.

Visit family in California.

Visit family in Utah.

Move into our home in Seattle at end of June or early July.


All the while, I will be trying my hardest to think about things one at a time so I don't get too stressed out.  Wish me luck!

Yea, I'm so grateful for an update! Sounds like you will be so busy. I want to see you when you come out to UT. Seriously, message me on FB when you are out here and I'll drive to wherever you are.
