We Did It!

Well, we found a place to live and we moved out of my parents' home this past weekend. Nick and I found a quaint townhome to rent about 25 minutes south of where my parents live. It's about 15 minutes closer to Nick's work, but thankfully we didn't have to change wards for church. It's a cute two bedroom, one bath place with a large kitchen and decent sized living room.

Nick and a few helpers packed up a trailer on Saturday and moved everything over. Since we don't have very much stuff, it only took about two hours to get everything moved.

Yesterday we spent moving boxes and putting things away. We were able to get a lot of things out of boxes or put away for later uses. Now we just have to get the kitchen together and we should have it. As soon as we're able to get our tax return from the government, we'll go and get some furniture to sit on. Right now we're sitting on an air matress and our rocking chair. Hey, it works.

It's been fun to get into a place to call ours. We were hoping to find a house to buy, but neither of us felt comfortable, or that the timing was right for that. After many prayers, and not just from us, this place just kind of fell into our laps. From start to finish, we were in the townhouse within two weeks of first inquiring about it.

We're happy and we love where we're at. It's only for about a year, but it'll be great!
