June 2013

June went by really fast and was a busy one. 

Chris drove down to califonria at the beginningof the month to move all our stuff out of storage and into our new place in huntington Beach. I, of course, was still teaching and wrapping stuff up in Seatte. 

In our last few weeks in Seattle we tried to enjoy our time with friends and family.  We went to one more Mariners game on a sunny day. Also, We had our friends from the ward come over to the house for Cafe Rio inspired dinner and some croquet.  The boys played a Fierce game!  Then we ended the night with smores! Then our last weekend my parents took us out to a nice dinner at the Palisades looking out over the Puget sound. It was a beautiful night and we took a nice walk afterwards.  Then we headed to Fremont and had some yummy mini pies at PIE.  We also squeezed in some games of tennis, since the weather was nice!

at PIE, not sure what that face is from Chris, but the mini pies were good!

On my last day of school, I said goodbye to my cute students and the wonderful staff at Clark Elementary. I almost made it out of there that day without crying, but as I said goodbye to my teacher buddies I couldn't help it.  It was crazy though.. in order to get Chris down to califonria on time for his residency orientation we had to leave right afterschool got out.  So the bell rang that day, I sent the kids out for summer, and tied up a few loose ends and then I left like 30 minutes later to get in our car and start our drive. WHIRLWIND! 

We drove Sstraight through (18 hours) to california. WE came home to everything sprawled out in boxes and piles.  We immediately laid down on our couch and took a nap.   It was great to see all our things that were in storage for the last year!  It was like FREE shoppping. So we spent the next few days setting up our house and settling in.
