The end of Pullman





So as the beginning of May started it sure came and went so fast and before we knew it, we were packing our bags, cleaning our house, and saying adios to Pullman.  So here are a few pictures from Graduation on Sunday.


It really was an interesting graduation.  Baxter Black a Cowboy Poet/Veterinarian came and spoke.  He was very entertaining and the time went fast as we got to watch as Chad was hooded and became a Dr. of Veterinarian Medicine.  We were so lucky to have my parents, Chad's parent's, Chad's sister JaNae and her little girl Lillian, Chad's nephew and niece, Derik and Kelynn.  Not only were they great to be there to support Chad on his day, but to pack and move all our stuff to Pocatello.  And huge thanks to Derik for driving Chad's car home so that we could travel all together in our other car.
Here is Baxter Black with his cowboy hat, speaking at Chad's graduation.


It was unbelievable how much stuff and time it takes to pack.  Really who knew how much you can fit in a house and in every nook and cranny.  We were so packed to the gills.  And another huge Thanks to Renay and Garrett for not only feeding us on Saturday while we were packing, but letting us do dinner at there house for our graduation/Mother's day dinner too.
The classic WSU picture.  

It's amazing that it came as fast as it did.  For those of you on facebook and saw my post, sorry for the repeat, but Chad and I teared up as we were pulling out of neighborhood.  And of course I actually asked Chad if it was hard for him to be leaving Pullman.  That's where I made the big mistake.  Then we started to hash over the things, like how much our marriage grew while we were in Pullman, having our first child there, and our first house, etc.  It was quite emotional, then to think of the great neighbors we had and all my great co-workers (who even made me a scrapbook, that still makes me tear up when I look at it) that we were leaving.  Just wish that Pullman wasn't as far away and we'd come visit more often.  Even though with Chad's work schedule going on any vacation is going to be challenging.  Something that will take time to get used to.
