On August 13th we took Kylee to St. George to College!! Crazy!! Since she had to be there a full week before classes started for her new job, we decided that me and the kids would stay most of the week there with her until her roomates came. Chris came for the first night to help bring all of her stuff. Then he and Emilee had to go back...Chris for work, and Em for Volleyball. So me, Kade, Quincy and Brinley spent a few days there. We rented a condo and stayed there until we were able to get her moved into her apartment.
It was a very overwhelming time for Kylee. She was learning how to do a new job, moving to a new town and a new home, trying to figure out where everything on campus was, and getting to know 4 new roomates. I am so grateful we were able to be there for a few days with her to help as she made the transition.
It was sooo HOT...like 120 degrees hot. So we spent a lot of time in stores school clothes shopping for the younger kids, and swimming in the pool at the condo while Kylee was at work during the day.
Before we left we got her all moved in and even got her room decorated! She had no time. She worked a ton that first week and she was going to be without a car once we left...so we went one day and found all of this cute stuff to go on her walls. She was surprised and grateful when she got off work that day to see what we had come up with. It turned out much better than leaving her there with cold bare walls!!
I know this will be a great experience for her. I am excited for her to have the opportunity to live on her own and learn all that comes with doing that. But even though we know she is supposed to be away at school and it will be great for her...WE ARE GOING TO MISS HER!!!
Good Luck Kylee! We love you!!
