last day, party, dinner, packing, and more packing

So the move is less then 2 days away and we're pretty much done with everything that has to do with packing and loading everything that belongs in the trailer.

Friday was my last day of work. I will miss many people and plan of keeping you all updated on all my pastry and baking creations!!

Saturday night we had the going away party with Vince's friends. It was nice, but I fell asleep on the couch around 1130. Last night my moms friends wanted to take Vince and I out for a going away dinner, so we all met up at Olive Garden at 4. There was about 15 of us and we were told we would have an hour wait.... Psshhh! A tad over 2 hours and we finally got sat. The manager was really really nice about it all. He had came to us after we had been waiting for about and hour and 15 minutes and said he appoligized that we were told we would only have an hour wait and that usually groups over 8 can have about double the wait time. So for the mistake he told us we could choose 5 appitizers and they would be ready and waiting for us when our table was ready and would be on the house. It's always nice when companies go above and beyond to keep their companies happy.

My dad has been working a lot of overtime lately so everytime we have gotten together he has been unable to join. Tomorrow I will be stopping by my parents house after he is off work, to say bye to my dad before I move. This will probably be one of the hardest parts of the move. He always has a way of putting words together that are felt in the heart. Even just the past few times I spoke to him over the phone I teared up after I hung up. After I see him I am going to swing by my grandmas house (dads mom) and say bye to her as well.

Then on Wednesday it's off off and away to Portland!!!

As for the past 2 days... well we have been doing ton and tons of packing. We finally finished loading the trailer this afternoon and we used every single inch of space of the trailer we rented.
Tomorrow is the visit with my dad and gma and then tomorrow night we will pack the truck with the remaining items we have left.
