Surprise surprise, it's been a while. Life just never slows down and continues to keep us on our toes. We have been traveling the world and I'm so thankful Carter is such a good traveler. I think he might be getting a little sick of living in his car seat though. Here are some pictures and some of the things we have been up to lately. Keep scrolling cause there's some not so exciting news that you might want to read.
The weekend after the amazing Siehara graduated, we were invited to yet another graduation. The timing couldn't have been any better really, so off we drove to Boise Idaho. It was there we attended my cousin's high school graduation, and Carter was able to meet great grandma and grandpa Ballantyne :) We really had a nice time seeing family and being entertained by a sweet little baby boy. Jason was able to take off most of the week, but he has been working a lot lately in Nevada. I was thankful that I didn't have to be left alone this time, but was able to spend some extra time with grandma and grandpa.

Our next adventure was heading off to Washington to spend some time with grandma and grandpa and see uncle Dyelan graduate from high school. It was so fun to be home! My dad bought a new boat and so we decided to be crazy and tube in the freezing Columbia river. Best ever!:)

Well, we left Sunday morning to begin our 10 hour drive home to Utah. On our way there, Jason had some business to take care of in Elko Nevada and so we decided to extend our trip a little more and get a hotel for the night. The next day went by so fast and the next thing I knew, I was looking at our new house and going over paperwork. Yes that's right, our new house. I can not be more devastated to be leaving our beautiful home in Utah and moving out to the middle if nowhere Nevada. We only have one week here as well. I'm really trying to have a positive attitude about the whole situation, but it is super hard. I won't be able to do what I love (teach) and I'm going to have to make all new friends again. This will be our 7th move in 3 years, so I guess that kind of makes us experts right? It'll be good and I won't go too crazy right? Oh boy this is going to be interesting.

Well we already have most of our stuff packed and Jason has already taken a load with him when he had to work this week. The rest of my week is going to consist of packing, cleaning, crying, and trying ever so hard to be positive about this whole move. If you are ever driving through Elko... Please stop by and see the crazy Clarissa.
Why does life have to be so hard sometimes? Friday was my last day of teaching for a least a really long time, and I had to say goodbye to my kids yet again. I hate the end of the school year... I just wish I didn't get so attached. Cleaning out my classroom was awful and to make things worse, I have have to go back to finish up. Bring on more tears I say!

Anyways... I'll keep you updated on the Osborn's move to Nevada and at least post pictures of our house. That is the only good thing I can see from this... We will have a really nice house to live in, and it is only for a year...
Happy Monday!!!
