Moving = Crazy!!!!

Well, today the packers came. I thought that we were ready and I thought that I had put aside everything that I wanted to take with us in the car. We were not ready!There were four packers, and they just went hog wild! They were just throwing things into boxes, they didn't care what they were putting in where. One of them even unloaded my dirty dishes from the dishwasher and was going to pack them that way - hello! And, while searching for my shower items after they left, I found our bath towels completely WET and packed up. You should see our apartment, we were planning on staying here tonight, but we are going to have to sleep with Ben's parents, there is no way we can stay here. And, to top things off - Brooklyn is so thrown off by everything that she is one cranky baby! I'm feeling OVERWHELMED!!!

Denver Snow Show . . .

Two weekends ago, it was the Denver Snow Show! This is something that Ben LOVES going to each year, especially because usually some of his best friends from college who are professional snowmobilers, Phatty and Ryan, come into town! They were the hit of the show, signing autographs and selling their Boondockers videos! It was so fun seeing them and I am sad that I didn't get a picture of the three of them together. But, I did take some pics of little miss Brooklyn loving the kid snowmobiles!

Coming Along . . .

Well, I just thought I would give a quick update on things, since it has been awhile since my last post. This last weekend, we flew to Idaho to apartment hunt. We flew out late Thursday night and came back on Sunday evening. Things weren't looking too hopeful after some of the places we found, but then we came across some new, super nice apartments, and we signed up! We are planning on only being in the apartments for 6 months or less while we look for a house. While we were in Idaho, it snowed everyday! Not enough to stick on the ground, just enough to be really pretty. And, we got to eat at Taco Time! It was a fun trip and now we feel much better knowing that we have a place to live. This is Ben's last week of work, and next week we are packing up and moving. Wow, that is coming up fast! Lots to do!

While I am updating, I just want to let my wonderful husband how proud I am of him! He works so hard to provide for our little family, and he is a great husband and father. I am so proud of him for getting this job. In a town and a place where it is hard to get in, he did it! He didn't know anyone, despite all of the Idaho Falls connections we have, he didn't use one of them! He just worked hard, blew them away in the interviews, and got the job! I am so proud of him! I hope this job is just wonderful and that he just loves it! We love you Ben!

Idaho Falls Or Bust . . .

Well, we have a big announcement - we are moving to Idaho Falls, Idaho! Ben has accepted a job with the Idaho National Laboratory doing finance for them. We are sad to leave Denver and the life we have built here, including but not only; our family, friends, a great job, the SHOPPING, and wonderful weather. But, we are so excited for our new adventure; a new job, a new home, new and old friends, being around more family, and living in a small town. Ben is excited to get a snowmobile again, I told him he could if I could get a puppy. : )We are moving the the end of October, just in time for those FREEZING Idaho winters. Wish us luck and come visit if you're ever in our neck of the woods. : )

Our Little Dancer . . .

Brooklyn has found a new love - DANCING!!! When Dancing With the Stars is on TV, whenever a new dance starts, Brooklyn will grab the nearest "partner" (i.e. - ball, Elmo, baby, etc.) and start spinning in circles with it. It is so cute! I'm glad to know that my love for dancing has been passed onto Brooklyn, rather than her daddy's hate of it. : ) Enjoy the video.
