Well, that was cool!

Last night we went over to my supervisor's house for dinner, an not only is my supervisor, but my entire team from work is there! They threw me a surprise going away party! It was awesome!
We had drinks, we had great food- the burgers were awesome, and we had fireworks! I also jumped on the neighbors trampoline and did 2 front flips, but couldn't get my footing and landing on my butt both times! This is normal as I could rarely land on my feet when I had a trampoline in my own backyard. I think I want a trampoline again, that was great exercise!
My boss got me a card and some encouragement stones, and the team got my a wish necklace. Both are very nice!
You know, it was really touching to have people do something like that for you . I've only been there for a little over a year total, and I was really floored. I hope that they do that for other people when they move on. This actually made me a little more excited about our move thats only 19 days away.

We also closed on our house on Monday, so not only have I had the excitement of great going away party, but I also have all the excitement that I now own a home! How awesome can this week get? Really?

We're moving in 19 days... my birthday is in 15 days. July is crazy, and I love it.

WOOHOO!

I have finally finished knitting my sister's baby blanket!!! YAY! *does her happy dance* I just need to weave in the ends and crochet the border.

I've also been working on another Thuja sock made from Laines du Nord Guinco that are super awesome :) I also started Jaywalker socks out of some really pretty koigu I bought last year. I'm also working on a a new sweater! I need to take pictures!

Tomorrow is a huge day. We're closing on our first house tomorrow. The lowdown of the house is here. We're super excited. We're moving on 22 days and very look out my house is packed!

Well, I'm out for now, catch you all later :)
