WOOOOOHOOOO

it finally came! my honey's graduation!!!!! after all this time, trials, long hours of school/homework, and just plain exhaustion... he did it. so on july 18, 2008 andrew redd bertasso graduated with his bachelors in communications.
andrew's parents came into town for his graduation. it was wonderful to see them (they have been mission presidents in brazil for the last 3 years, they just came back the beginning of july.)we spent the day with them shopping and "getting to know them again," after that we went to dinner and andrew's older sister carrie and her 3 kids were there. (her husband was out of town at the time) it was really fun and i think we all enjoyed it. the next day andrew went to school and then came home to pack before graduation.
for those of you who don't know we are moving to boise for the time being. we are hoping that job hiring goes better in the fall. andrew has 2 phone interviews on monday and we are processed through another job. so things might be looking up.
i have decided that packing is the worst. we both hate it and have vowed to move as few times as we can.
anyways i am so proud of andrew and all he did and went through to graduate. he is so wonderful and i cannot wait to start our "new" lives somewhere else then college. we're going to meet new friends and experience new things together. what a wonderful feeling for us both. i love you andrew, thanks for putting up with me and putting up with all this school so we can start a family and get on with our careers.

yummy yummy in our tummies

our friends bree and jesse had decided that since we had never been to big jud's they wanted to go with us. neither of us had never been, it's funny because they even have a big jud's in boise and my friends used to go all the time. i some how always skipped out. so tonight we went to big jud's and it was so packed but we decided that we weren't in any hurry. it took about an hour an a half just to get our fries. we all shoved them down our throats... then finally our 1 POUND burger came. andrew and i shared it and only ate half of it. we were so full and had forgotten that we even got a big ice cream cone afterwards. i couldn't even finish my 1/4 of the hamburger or half of my ice cream. i'm weak. anyways it was delicious and i would defiantly go back when it wasn't so busy!

for the fourth of july we went to go to island park to hang out with my grandpa. he lives all by himself in the summer. so we took him to yellowstone. we went through the yellowstone park some more and then they were having a BBQ at the rec park. we ate and settled in the park to wait for the fireworks show. it was our first time in the west yellowstone seeing the fireworks, the show was better then we all thought it would be. this dumb girl kept standing right in front of us all, ah i was so mad, but than had to remember why we were even celebrating the 4th.
here are a few pictures of first experience....
