Memorial Day Weekend Trip North and Our New House!

This Memorial Day weekend we drove to Coeur d'Alene to see Tyler's parents and also spent a couple days in Spokane with my family. We had a wonderful time, I was so happy to make the trip and get away from some stress of things that have been going on. It was a very nice, relaxing weekend.
First stop: Coeur d'Alene with Tyler's parents.
We got to Cd'A on Friday and when we got there we learned that Tyler's mom Terry decided to plan and throw me a surprise baby shower! And I definitely was surprised! I knew that she had some baby stuff for us but I didn't have any idea that she would throw a shower! In attendance were Tyler and I (obviously), Tyler's sister and her family, Tyler's parents, and Mary who is a dear family friend. It was incredibly sweet of Terry to throw me a shower, I was so happy I almost cried several times. And she totally spoiled our baby girl rotten! She will be the best dressed little girl :) Here are some pictures from the event:

The original pile of presents for Baby Girl from Grandma Noble

The cute centerpiece on the table where we would be enjoying our meal

The table with all the cute, pink decor on it, notice the little pink shoes hanging from the light :)

The dessert! Super cute and tasted wonderful!

We moved the presents into the family room for opening them. 

Me with all the presents

Opening presents

Cute little outfit, I was terrible at holding them up so that you could actually see what they were, but it was an adoreable pink shirt with cute little flowery pants

The pile of clothes is getting bigger!!

Jammies =)

Hair bows galore!

The cutest little snowsuit ever

The (almost) final pile

See, I still hadn't opened the few behind me

Kind of dark, but its Charlie, Leah and Daphanee

I'm holding up one of the two! blankets that Leah crocheted for Baby Girl

Here is the second one

And now the final pile

Terry hiding behind Daemmin because she doesn't like pictures ;)

The pile, all packed up again. What a spoiled little sweetie we have!!

Saturday we spent the day hanging out with Tyler's parents. Tyler and Scott went on a bike ride and Terry and I went shopping for maternity shorts for me. We also stopped at the fabric store and found a pattern to make a blessing dress for Baby Girl! :) So much fun!
Sunday we went to church in Spokane with my family, had a nice lunch together, hung out, went on a nice walk and then watched the movie Wreck it Ralph as a family. We had a great time!
Monday we had a quick breakfast at a cool restaurant in Spokane called Frank's Diner. It used to be a railroad car but they decomissioned it and turned it into a restaurant. The food is really good there! Shortly after that we drove home and made it back to Boise safe and sound.

Tuesday was eventful as our first full day back in Boise. I had to teach and also had  five appointments to show apartments and we signed the papers for our house! We got the key to it on Wednesday after the funding and recording were completed! We are so excited to move in and make it our home :)

We will have another eventful weekend as some family from Alaska are in town and we are helping my mom to move back to Boise from Twin Falls. Then we will start moving on Monday! Next week I am also staff at the Boise State Chamber Music Camp, so it will be interesting (and tiring) to try and get everything done that we need to in order to complete our move!
