With things calming down we were finally able to get Emily to the DMV where she passed her drivers tests with fling colors - hurray! I never went without a driver.
The big day finally arrived - Kate and I loaded all her stuff in my car and hit the road Thursday morning. We got to Rexburg around 3:30 and were met by Becca, Kelli and Sam who made the unloading so much easier. We got all her stuff unpacked but had to stop for dinner.
We picked up Abby and tried out a BBQ place.
Abby then guided us through Walmart where we got fresh food and so tools for hanging stuff up in her room. Then Abby helped us get all her stuff hung up.
We took Abby home and got a tour of her lego filled room before I took Kate back to her place and we had a tear filled goodbye before I headed to my hotel in Pocatello. I arrived around 12:30am and slipped into bed. I will miss my Katers but she is ready for new things - you'll do awesome!
The next morning I woke early to get to Ontario by 12:00pm for Kelly's retirement luncheon. Laura was in town for that so we got to spend a lot of the weekend with her. Friday night we caught Luke's football game.
And Saturday we caught Jared's soccer game then went out to lunch with Grandma and Grandpa.
Our Fridays this year start with 9:30 piano followed by voice lessons in Eagle. So we have decided that we need to take more Friday field trips. First one was to the Birds of Prey Center.
We loved seeing the bits, learning from the volunteers, reliving childhood by dressing up in the wings, but most of all the falconry show where we got to watch a red tailed-hawk in action.
