I'll just recap that last week and a half or so. We graduated May 3rd, on a cold and rainy day. It is nice to have that chapter of our lives finished, though we do appreciate our experience at Olivet... maybe we won't come November when we have to start paying off our student loans though!
This last Monday was our 1 year anniversary. I was a little sick, and our apartment was pretty much all packed up, but we still got to go out to eat and eat 1 year old cake!
Here is our 1 year old anniversary cake from the wedding.
Tuesday was moving day. We decided to move with ABF and used something called a "Relocube" to move with. It is a pod thing that is 6x7x8 and you fill it up with your stuff, put your own lock on it and they ship/store it for you. In our case we have a few weeks in which we will be transitioning so it will be stored in Orlando until we actually move down to Florida this summer. (right now we are staying with both mine and Matt's parents). Here is a picture of the Relocube: (It is in Nashville already and heading to Atlanta according to their website. )
Here it is from the outside
Here it is with Matt in it!
After we had gotten the couch, love seat, mattress and a bench in it.... which was only the start of our massive amount of stuff that we fit in there. Though not all of it fit.
You don't even want to know what all we fit in there!After we got that all packed up we headed out to eat with a group of close friends, stayed the night with Mark and Amanda and yesterday (Wednesday) we headed down to visit with our parents.
We are mostly just hanging out and doing a lot of nothing while we wait to move to Florida. We have to wait until our apartment is ready. It could be in early June but it could be as late as August (yikes). We won't know a specific date until late this month.
That is about it for now, more updates to come later! Thanks for stopping by!!

I love that you took pictures of that relocube. We did pack a lot in that thing :) We had so much fun with you guys this whole year. Hopefully the next time we hang out will be in sunny FL!?!? We love you guys. Don't get too bored.
Hey guys,
we too loved the picture of the cube. Your grandpa says to tell you you can live in it until you get an apt! Good to see you both today at Nikki' graduation--Yep Norton had gone out to the car and was waiting for us there. Love,
Grandma Carole
:) A belated happy anniversary to the two of you!
Great news re: the possible job offer for Matt. I'll say a prayer for the two of you.
Rest up for the move gal :)

Are you moving from Chicago to Florida? I saw your post on runnersworld about the cubs. I'm from Chicago (still go back every 3-4 months because I love it there and that's where my family is) but I go to school in Orlando.
