I've been dreading this past weekend for awhile now. The Summer just seemed to fly by SO fast and it was here before we knew it. It was time to take Hailee to college.
Two hours later....
We arrived in Price!
First thing we did was head over to the Student Center to get her house keys, lunch and laundry cards and of course, her books.
Had to get some fun stuff to wear to the games too! After we got her keys we went over to her Dorm in Sessions Hall and opened the door to find this....
SICK! Ha ha, I think you're pretty brave if you can live in a dorm room. We got right to work.
we played a little too... :)
Coming together!
I color coordinated her clothes for her.. they better stay this way Hailee, ha ha!
The finished product! SO much better. We joked the whole time that it was Extreme Home Makeover: Dorm Edition! After hours of setting things up, and two Walmart trips later we were pretty tired and hungry. We had heard that this little Mexican joint "Los 2 Amigos" was a really good place to eat. It really was sooo good!!
In the hotel that night, we didn't plan to have the same pajamas on! We seriously couldn't stop laughing! We should have gotten more rest that night but we were having too much FUN!! First thing Saturday morning Hailee yells out "We've got a LONG day ahead of us..." my mom, Grandma and I just burst out laughing because we really didn't have anything to do but the poor girl was going to drag the day out as long as she possibly could! Don't blame her though. After we got up and checked out of our hotel, we went to breakfast and then decided to find some of her classes and go see the gym.
Can't WAIT to watch her tear up this court!
While we were at the gym we ran into her head coach, Paur and I have to say he is the sweetest man I've ever met. He promised to take good care of our girl for us. We wandered around campus for a few hours, found her classes and then explored the little town. There's not a whole lot to do in Price, It's so small! We went to a few cute shops and then went to lunch at the Main Street Grill.
We had to take a picture of this. So funny to come out of the restaraunt and see my moms car surrounded by bikes!
It was finally time to drop her off and say our goodbyes. Cody and I had this blanket made for her and she loved it!
Didn't want to leave...
Pulling away we looked and saw her peeking out her blinds waving to us. The tears just started flowing! She'll be able to come home most weekends until basketball starts and after that we'll be going down there to watch her play. But it was so sad!! She's my best little buddy and I'm going to miss her so much. We're so proud of you Hailee, you're going to do great and we can't wait to come watch you play!! You're a college girl now :)

Awww! You're such a good sister to make sure she's ok down there. I'm sure it will take some getting used to, but she will probably love college. You guys made her room look sooo cute too.
You are SUCH a cute sister!! I know you will miss her, but luckily she is just a couple hours away! :)))
