Well we are FINALLY moved in all the way!! I still have a little organizing to do in the office but other than that I'm done! It's so nice to finally get it all done. Some times I think it would be easier to just throw it all away :)!! But I am a pack rat so of course I cant do that :) oh well.
Right now I am just staying at home. I actually really like it. I miss work but at the same time its nice to just have relaxing days where for the most part the biggest thing you have to do is make dinner! :) I have actually really enjoyed cooking. But I will probably get a job here pretty soon -- dont know what I will do but oh well.
I have been helping david with planting in plug trays -- its not bad and I kind of like it. I will have to take pictures of the greenhouse and everything we've planted so far. I need to post lots of pictures its just the remembering part. We dont have internet at our house right now so I have to go to my in-laws or go in town to my house or something. Hopefully we will be getting some soon. Its just difficult because we have tons of trees around our house (which i love & it keep its nice and cool) but its bad because you cant get a wireless signal.
Well I've gotta run -- its been such a nice day here today so were going for a walk! :) Totally loving the nice weather!!

Last Day for Sen. Risch
Today is my last day working for Sen. Risch. Its really sad that I have to leave because I have loved working for him in his Idaho Falls office. This experience has taught me a lot and I am raelly greatful for the opportunity I have had.
Today for my last day Sen. Crapo's office is right next to ours and they came over and ate doughnuts with me and Amy our Regional Director. It was so thoughtful of them. I hate to leave but I know that I am going to have a really neat experience moving home and growing watermelons as well. I hope that I will be able to some day work for Sen. Risch's office again. I have really learned a lot and love being a part of it all. :)

3 More Days / Lots of Cereal
Well its defiantly coming fast. We only have 3 more days till we move. And the worst part of all is I really haven’t started packing or cleaning ahhh. I defiantly have a lot to do today. But I’ve got to admit it’s really hard to pack while David’s around. We just have way to different ways of packing. For example he hates folding his clothes and putting them in a suitcase. He wants to leave all of them on the hanger and just lay them down somewhere. I don’t like this way because my clothes always seem to fall off the hanger and land in dirt. Second he doesn’t want to unpack the dressers. He says it will just be easier to move them with everything left in them. On this on ya it might be easier but it makes it a lot heavier and personally I don’t want drawers sliding out while their taking it down the stairs and my underwear going everywhere. :) He is so funny about packing. I’m prolly not easy to pack with either because I usually think that I can pack better than him. When I was little and we'd go on trips, or moving back and forth to Boise, we could only take so much, but of course I had to bring everything, so I just got really good and packing really tight. Packing is like one giant puzzle piece to me and it can be fun it I have time and can do it my way :)!!!! So we will just have to see how it all goes. I really want to be down in the trailer when the boys bring stuff down so I can organize it and get it to fit tightly so it doesn’t move. :)
So last night David and I went to Albertsons. David’s mom told us about a cereal sale that they were having, plus I had some double coupons. We ended up getting 13 boxes of cereal and didn’t spend that much at all. On certain Post brands if you bought 5 (for 8 something) you would get a $5 off coupon towards your next purchase. So we bought 10 boxes and got 2 $5 coupons. This is how we used it. We ran the first 5 boxes and then ran the second 5 and applied a $5 coupon and then used the next $5 on the rest of our items. It was really nice because we saved a lot of money. We thought that you had to use the $5 coupon on cereal so that’s why we bought 10 boxes. But when we got to the check stand we were told differently and so it was a nice surprise to get $5 off our other groceries. But I was so dumb and didn’t think about using my double coupons on the $5 coupon. I didn’t think about it till i got home. If I used that then I would have gotten $10 off my other groceries and could have gotten $10 off 5 boxes of cereal (instead of just $5). Which mean I would have had store credit, which I could have applied to my other groceries! (Hopefully you followed all that) Darn my hide, I was pretty disappointed in myself because the double coupons expire today and I don’t need any other groceries because we are moving. Oh well it was a learning experience for next time!!!!

Last Day at Melalueca / Wedding Video
Okay so friday was my last day at Melaleuca. Well atleast for the next 12 weeks. I will be back at the end of June. Even though I will only be gone for a little bit it felt like I was leaving permenatly. It was really hard for me to say goodbye, even though I know I am coming right back. But I know that it just wont be the same. I hope everyone keeps in touch though. I will let you all know what its like to have your nights available!!! :)
Well my Wedding Video finally came. Don't worry I am going to post it this weekend. I left it at my parents house so I don't lose it in the move. It was alright. I was a little frusterated because it wont work in the DVD player like its suposed to, but it worked on the computer just fine. All in all though it wasnt my favorite. I honestly think my sister could have made a better one. David and my parents both liked it but it just seemed a little ______ . I dont know what the right word for it is. When I post it everyone will have to let me know what they think. And don't be affraid to tell me that you dont like it. Remember I am not a big fan of it myself. But oh well its done, I have it , and I will never have to work with that company again. :)
