Wednesday, December 28, 2011 Brad and I Ventured to our new home in Rexburg Idaho! Thanks to the help of My Dad, Landon, and Brad we got the U-Haul all loaded up and the truck on the tow dolly.
Brad did such a good job being patient with the Drive. We had to take it slow! Our normal 8 hour drive took us about 11 hours.
We finally made it to IDAHO!!!
Around 2:00 pm we got to our apartment in Rexburg! Kenny and Jerah met us there and helped us unload the U-Haul. Then the unpacking began.
It took us a solid 2 days to get unpacked. New years Eve we had things on the walls and cooked our first meal! Of coarse Brad had to try out his new Grill! We had hamburgers!! They were Yummy!!!!
So we have already been doing some updates to our Apartment. Good thing for gift cards! We have had so much fun! Our Buy today was a curtain rod, curtain, a small ottoman, and a red pillow to match!!
This was the Before....
And here is the AFTER...
(Pretty Nice Eh??)
Tonight we also had the opportunity to host Alex Kling, Brad's Best Friend. He is auditing a potato company here near Rexburg and needed a place to crash.We were so excited to have him stay with us! Good thing we have a guest bedroom!
Having our own place, our appliances, our furniture and decorations, makes me realize how blessed we are. I am so grateful for all the hard work Brad and I have done this last Fall to save money to get us started in our first Apartment together. I am also grateful for My parents and the help they have given Brad and I, and all of the hand-me-down furniture! I couldn't be any happier at this time and I know that all of our Blessings come for our Heavenly Father! How grateful I am to be a part of this gospel and to feel the love of my savior everyday! I am also grateful for Brad and all the hard work he has done thus far! We are so excited for this semester to start and to start my new job tomorrow!!! Hopefully all goes well!
I love your curtains! Can't wait to see you new home! Love, Mom!
