Recap of the last bit...

Wow, I haven't written anything in a while! But man, life has been great!! Chris' LAST round of chemo was today!!! I don't think I can put into words how happy this makes me {us}!!! The other thing I can't begin to put into words is how grateful I am for anti-nausea meds, and blessings. The past 2 rounds of chemo {well, I'm being optimistic...so as for this round, it means THUS FAR} Chris hasn't gotten sick! I mean, he gets a bit nauseated, doesn't feel 100% and is quite tired, but he doesn't throw up anymore!!! After the second round, I was SO incredibly dreading the third and fourth {I say I was dreading, Chris was carrying ME through haha}, and after blessings and extra anti-nausea meds, it has been quite easy {for me}.

Just so you know, I do know I say "this" has been easy, or "that" has been hard, but Chris may feel different :) All I can tell you is what I see, what Chris says, and how he acts.  So, I know I talk about me me me and how I feel...but how could I talk for Chris? Not trying to be selfish though guys, I just tell it how it is....from my perspective.

We are now getting ready to move to Rexburg, Idaho...which means, snow. ECK! We'll be moving next week!!! Exciting right? I mean, I am definitely excited to get done done done with chemo, and move forward with our lives!! But I am so not looking forward to cold and snow. Not that it's been nice here, it really hasn't, but it hasn't snowed!! {it did hail the other night....but I was at work so I was inside}

In other news, we went whale watching the other day with the nieces, and it was super fun! Got some great pictures of dolphins but that's all we saw :( BUT they gave us our tickets back!!! Cool hu? So we get to ride again for free. We'll be doing that this week, along with fitting in everything we wanted to do while we were here {hang out with friends, friends, friends, and family}!

Honestly, life has just been great lately!! I don't know why! I have worked a lot at White House Black Market, my taste in clothes has gotten more expensive because of it {NOT a good thing}, and I'm also working that internet job on the side! So blessed to have found work during this time! I am also lucky to have that internet one for when we get to Rexburg! At least I'll have a part time job until I find another one!

Speaking of Rexburg {the booming metropolis} Chris has also been offered a couple of jobs out there! It's amazing how things start opening up when you're doing the right thing. I think we've decided on that lately actually....just try to do the right thing all the time so things go smoothly :) so that's our action plan; don't steal it ;)

Ya know, I've actually made some pretty good friends out here, and I really am going to miss it! I finally found girlfriends again and even went out with them the other night! {Dont think I've done that since I was single haha!} So it makes me sad to leave, but excited to move to a place for more than 4 months :) Hopefully there are more than just 19 year old girls out there! That's what I'm hoping for at least.

So everything is happy here as we wind down from the biggest trial of our lives and move on to the rest of our lives.
