Life is crazy lately! Here is the jist...

Starting end of May...

1. Shane's parents came in town for five days.
2. My sister came the day they left and she stayed for 5 days.
3. My parents came a few days after she left and stayed a week.
4. My bestest friend and her daughter came a day after they left and stayed for 5 days and just left today.

We had a BLAST with all of them here. We are grateful they all made trips to see us. It made us feel loved. We have our house to ourselves now for Six days, which i am also grateful for. :) THEN we leave and will be visiting idaho for 2 weeks and minnesota for 2 weeks. When the boys and i get back we will get thrown into the packing process IMMEDIATELY b/c the movers will be there that day. :) haha! We have our tickets and fly out of here on august 10th to head for Japan. We have our orders, we have all our paperwork done and all our clearances, we have plane tickets, we are on the housing list, we have all our passports. We are pretty on top of everything b/c of my dear husband. He is amazing. While i know there are lots of things shane couldn't do without me, there are also lots of things i couldn't do without him. It's been a crazy, yet fun month. It's creeping up on me fast!!

5. The heat here won't let up. It's been up in the 100's for weeks and has no sign of cooling off and no sign of any rain. I have never wanted rain, but i do now. :) The curious thing is that Okinawa will be this hot, but with humidity. haha! Good thing we will have beaches. :) Beautiful beaches, i might add. Sorry, had to throw that in there!! :)

6. Did i mention i LOVE biking. Shane and I have been on a couple bike rides this week together for the first time with our new bikes. AND it's so fun. We love it. We love that time together too.
