finally. our cross country trip

MONDAY: got the rental truck and packed it up in Virginia Beach. Empty apt slept on an air mattress. we couldn't sleep cause it was like the night before Christmas. We were so excited to move!!! :)
TUESDAY: woke up at like 5 AM. Oh wow so early!!! Got the last of the stuff packed up. Took Addi out to use the bathroom and then headed to Cam's work. I waited in the Truck with Addi for a good 6-7 hours for him to get off work. I slept, played DS, and i had to move the truck to a different parking lot. It was intense. Our truck was 26 feet plus towing a car on the back. Anyway, finally Cam got off work and to the truck between 12 and 12:30. and off we went. YAY!!! So, drove thru Virginia, West Virginia and got into Kentucky that night. We stayed there for the night. Addi had her first hotel stay that night. She did so good on the trip btw. Way better than we were expecting. She is full of surprises. She loved rest stops when we would take her out in the grass :)
WEDNESDAY: got up really early. Like 6:30 to be on the road by 7. We drove thru Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, and stopped for the night in Kansas. The hotel we stayed at was kinda ... sketchy. But it was a bed. It took us a while to find a hotel that had room and a place to park our big truck. We were both crabby =S
THURSDAY: got up pretty early again, tho we made time to be able to sleep in a little bit. Then we headed out. Drove the rest of Kansas and into Colorado. We stopped in Colorado Springs and spent the evening with one of Cam's really good Navy buddies. It was a lot of fun, but it was so so cold there. haha...
FRIDAY: We left super early so we could make it all the way to Rexburg. It was probably the longest day we drove. So the rest of Colorado, then Utah, then FINALLY IDAHO!!! we got to Cams parents house pretty late, we sat in the hot tub then headed to bed. It was nice to sleep in a little bit that next morning. Then I went into Evans beauty school for Haylee to cut and style my hair while the guys loaded the stuff we had in Rexburg. Then we loaded everything else up and headed to Boise. Cam and his dad drove in the truck together. Emily and I rode in my car together and Cam's mom, Brother, and Brother In Law rode together in another car. It wasn't too bad of a drive. and it was really nice talking with Cam's sister. Finally we made it to our trailer. I was in love :) You will see pictures and see why haha..so much better than an Apt and we can do what we want to it!!! yay :) That night we decided to just chill. We ate pizza and had a lil slumber party haha. Cam Addi and I slept in our room tho. Just on the floor...
SUNDAY: We woke up about 9 or so and Robin and Emily went to go get breakfast while we started unpacking the truck. Our place was a disaster. haha... after we unloaded some stuff Robin, Emily and I went to Home Depot to get tools and cleaners. We got back and they hadn't done much. They were waiting for something but I don't remember what haha.. anyway, everything was unloaded into the house. Washer and Dryer hooked up. I started unpacking clothes and such. Then his family decided it was time for dinner then for them to head back home. So we ate at Fudruckers. Then we said bye, Cam and I headed home and started unpacking. We made a good dent in it. Went to bed kinda early, slept in a lil the next day..
MONDAY: woke up and started unpacking again. Long day.

Anyway, we have started painting and getting things set up how we want them. We didn't have a fridge for over a week. Oh that was fun lol =S We went home the next weekend for a wedding. It was nice, but it seems like we have been on the go since we got here. We got to see both our families at least for a little bit. It was nice:) Then the 10th was Cam's birthday. I made him a lil scrapbook :) and I made roast for dinner. I had orientation for work that day too. I am working at Applebees. I really enjoy being back at work!!! Its weird getting back into the groove of real life haha.. but it was nice to start work before school starts. Cam and I have both got everything ready for school. He starts next Monday and I start Tuesday. Cam is also working. He started yesterday at American Eagle in the Mall :) I don't think there is much more to update on, but here are some links for pictures on my facebook page. I hope it works and that you enjoy :)

this last link is just some random pictures. The ones of Addi are from right after she got spayed. My poor baby. She did so good during surgery tho they said. And she had to have surgery on her eye cause her bottom eye lid curves in and makes her eye leak and she get goopy stuff coming out. So they cut a little section of her bottom eye lid out. She is doing much better but we still have to try to keep her calm so she doesn't tear her stitches. But she has been pretty good about not licking herself and stuff. She is such a good puppy and she is finally going back to her old self. After all the driving she was so worn out that all she had been doing was sleeping. Now she is getting hyper again. haha.. Go figure it took surgery to do that ..

PS you need to copy and paste the links to see the pictures. You can't just click on the link. Sorry!!!

  1. Hi,

    You have posted nice informatio on cross country trip at virgnia.

    Vacations could mean different things to different people. Some look at vacations as an escape from all stressful things. It’s the time of the month or the year that they don’t feel bad not doing anything. Vacations are made up of a lot of me-time quiet-time. On the other hand, vacations could also be about doing the things that you never really get to do, like nature walks or extreme sports. Places to stay in Charleston West Virginia conventions make doing business more enjoyable.
