What an adventure it was getting here!
First of all, 16 feet of a truck just isn't what it used to be. After many tears, way too much stress, renting a trailer, and tossing some items, we got loaded up and ready to leave.
Things that got tossed:
1. toddler bed
2. double jogger
3. kids kitchen set
4. night stand
5. garbage can
6. bassinet
Highlights of the trip:
1. The kids were AMAZING!
2. We made the trip over the course of two days, which is the way to go for sure.
3. Lots of beef jerky
4. Fun times with walkie talkies
5. Kyah never got car sick!
Lowlights of the road trip:
1. Gage clogging the toilet at a gas station and having to use the plunger to fix it.
2. Getting attacked by mosquito's. LITERALLY!
3. It took 17.5 hours.
4. Kyah wet her pants during a nap, which soaked her car seat, sometime during the first three hours of the trip. Yuck.
So we are here, we love our house, and the neighbors have been so friendly. They came out to help us unload the truck and have even brought us flowers from their yard. I think we are going to love it here.
P.S. There was a comment wondering why the move. Answer: Nate is getting his MBA from BYU this fall. Go Cougs.
P.S.S. Book Club Post for July coming very soon.

We need to find out where you live so we can come visit! I want to invite your family to Amy's 2nd birthday party on August 23 at our house, so I need to get your address! Glad that you made it okay, though the toilet overflow did not sound fun!
You dumped the jogger!?
So glad you made it and you like the area!
There's nothing better than good neighbors! Glad you made it safe and sound. good luck unpacking over the next little while.
