Off And Away!!

Farewell Utah, Good bye friends. Next time I see you I will be MARRIED!! I am flying to California for the last couple days (yes days!! 12 to be exact) of planning and waiting. Gary doesn't come in till Wednesday night so I will miss him but it will be good to spend these last few single days with our family. I have been fretting that when I get to California the music won't work or the video won't play and the originals will be forever stuck in UTAH!! But I think I have triple covered my bases and am ready for a stress free flight. I also got my apartment most of the way packed. Thanks Grays for helping me move! And since I hate to blog without pictures, here is the sneak preview of the wedding hair.

No More Pencils, No More Books, No More Teachers Dirty Looks

Team Roskelley is no more:( It was a sad day at school but I had a strong sense of accomplishment. I made it!!! My first year and I am still alive. I had a great class this year and we all learned a lot. I love all those kids. I am now spoiled for the rest of my teaching days.
This is where it all started. An empty classroom and a new set of curtains. Now the room is bare and put up for the summer. I can't say I was sad for too long however. I get married in 13 days!!!! I am glad to be able to focus on that. I love my job and I am glad to be at Sego Lily and teaching with my friends.

MAN SHOWER!!

Sorry this is the second post for one day but I had some catching up to do.
This is all the sweet stuff Gary got at his neighborhood man shower. The way a man shower works is different then the normal wedding shower because I got to go. It is a chance for the people close to Gary to meet the new wife and for him to get some of the stuff he would be excited about unwrapping. Thanks to all who came it was fun.
Poor Gary had hay fever that day so bad he could bearly even see. He was a trooper and toughed it out though. Love you Gar!

We Can't Wait To Move In


We finally bought one. Gary and I were just getting some ice cream on a Saturday afternoon and decided to stop in at Knights furniture and mattress outlet in Orem. We walked around for only 5 min and found the perfect one. Simple but classy, we love it. We are SO SO SO excited to move into our new place together. Unfortunately we can't move in until after I leave for California so Gary has to do all the moving. Did I say unfortunately? I meant WOOHOO!! haha Sorry Gar.

P.S. ONLY 17 MORE DAYS!!!!

Bedroom Sets

Gary and I want to buy a bedroom set for our new house. We have looked at a couple of places but I was hoping all of my fellow bloggers could give us some pointers! Where else can we look? What is a good price? Where can I find the best deals or sales?
This top set is from Bassel and a bit pricy.
We liked this black set with the different color top on the dresser. We also liked the 4 poster. Plus this was the least inexpensive.
This last set was middle of the road in price and the one we liked the best so far. It has a nice color to the wood and cute stamped copper detail.
Isn't Gary such a good helper! haha he makes a beautiful Vana!
When we were shopping the sun was shining and it was pouring! This is the beautiful rainbow we saw as we came out of the last store.
