The day after graduation we packed up and headed west. So the last few weeks at our apartment were crazy and full of clutter. (Really though, ask our friends that came over and didn't have a place to sit because we sold out couch a few weeks too early.)
I took the task of packing up most of our stuff while Matt studied for and took his finals and finished up his last days at his job in Orem.
We loved our first little apartment together. (And I definitely mean little.)
Moving meant saying goodbye to many people, some of the more important ones being both of my brothers, my sister in law, cute nieces and favorite cousins. It was quite the tearful goodbye. We were so fortunate to have lived so close to them for the last 8 months of us being in Utah. We miss them everyday! Especially our nieces cute smiles and laughs.
A HUGE thank you to Matt's parents who drove our Uhaul for us while we drove one of our cars back to CA. Yet I think Matt and I both would have gladly traded since two of the worst things happened to us on the drive.
#1 - Bumper to bumper traffic in the gorge
If you have ever made the drive from UT to CA you know this is crazy.
Don't worry this lasted a solid hour.....
#2 - Popped a tire ... 2 miles out of Vegas
We definitely said many prayers of thanks for AAA and for a Costco close enough by to get us a new set of tires at that time of day on a Saturday
And this little stint of the drive just happened to be when I was driving. It was solid. Matt did say I handled the popping of the tire pretty well thank you very much!
