- We bought a new car- Honda Accord '06
- We graduated!
- We packed all of our stuff up in two pods and moved out of our Provo house- with a lot of help from family (thanks Nate, Kate, and Julie!)
- We hit the road for a long road trip!
- 1st stop- Salt Lake City- The Taylors. We had fun swimming in their pool and playing the wii. We will miss being so close to them!
- 2nd stop- Brigham City- The Packers. The girls have so much fun playing with Brad. And Clark is sure getting big!
- 3rd stop- Garland- Grandma and Grandpa Carter. We had a good time listening to fun stories. They had a nice basement where we had our own little apartment!
- 4th stop- Corinne- Grandma and Grandpa Harper. We had fun trying to fly kites with not enough wind.
- 5th stop- McCammon, Idaho- The Carters. We had fun trying to roast marshmallows over a fire that was blowing from 40mph winds!
- 6th stop- Woodland, CA- The Fifes. Brad wasn't feeling too good- but we sure got a lot of wii playing in.
- 7th stop- Merced, CA- Mom and Dad. We were here for a week, so we really relaxed. Brad loved the Wii. We also helped Dad install a watering system for Mom's garden. Then we went to Yosemite (Brad's first time) with the Spencers- it was beautiful!
- 8th stop- Ladera Ranch, CA- The Parkers. We hit the beach, Ruby's 3 times, the pool, and an Angel's game. Those kids were sooooo cute! We already miss baby Sadie's button nose.
- 9th stop- St. George, Utah- The Maglebys. We are really going to miss them! It was Brad's birthday while we were there and they made him feel like royalty. Let's just say, I have room for improvement in how to treat the birthday boy! We had a delicious breakfast, went swimming, ate pizza, and played the wii- Brad loved it!
- 10th stop- Denver, CO- The Sleights. We got to see Grant and Jennie's new baby, Warren. He is soooo cute! Brad had the magic touch with him!
- 11th and FINAL stop- NAPERVILLE, IL- The Callisters. We got to Brent and Melissa's house. The girls had made us cute cards welcoming us to Chicago and left them on our bed. Brent and Melissa have been so great to let us stay with them for a few weeks until we move in to our apartment! We are excited to move in to our new place next week. We have loved visiting our family for the past month, but we are excited to not live out of a suitcase!
- So, now- Brad is going into the city on the weekdays for his CPA course. I am getting over a bad cold, but need to start seriously looking for a job- FUN!
- I apologize for the absence of pictures- a new camera is on our long list of things we want!

Our Adventures

Officially Done!
So, I just got back from taking my last final forever!!! It's a great feeling. And I even somehow pulled off an A on that test. During four years of college I have definitely learned how to take a test! Brad is on his way to take his last final. We are so excited to be done and moving on to the next phase of life. We are so grateful for our opportunity to go to BYU! It has been awesome!
We are graduating tomorrow- both with bachelor degrees. Brad is also getting his Master's in Accounting. Hooray!!!

Exciting times!
Well, we are down to two weeks of classes left! Then we have to make it through our last round of finals and packing up and moving all of our stuff. We are really excited to begin the next part of our lives- It's exciting and scary at the same time. But, we have sure loved BYU. I wish I could go to school and take classes forever and get paid. Getting a real job from 8-5 everyday does not sound fun. We will sure miss Provo and going to school- but hooray for the future!

Visiting Grandparents
I haven't update forever. Not much is going on here, other than finishing up our last semester of college!!!!! We are a little excited.
A couple of weeks ago, we went up north to Corrinne and Garland, Utah to visit the Harpers and the Carters. We had a lot of fun spending time with all of our grandparents. I took our camera in to the Harper's house but forgot to take it into the Carter's. So, all of our pictures are from Corinne.
The boys sitting in their recliners.
We sure love Grandpa Neil! He was sporting his new hat that Grandma knitted for him.
Brad couldn't quit pull the hat off like Grandpa.
Grandma put Brad to work while we were there. Her cute flag was shredded at the bottom so she had Brad trim it up.
It looks so much better now!
Grandma Diane makes famous gingerbread cookies, and she has cute gingerbread hanging in her kitchen.
Brad also switch out all of the light bulbs. Way to go Brad!
Grandma was so cute to put on a delicious Sunday dinner for us! It was delicious. I even got to try snow geese for the first time- interesting flavor. It tasted "gamey."
