We are still alive!!

Well we made it to Idaho Falls ok! We are staying with my grandma right now and it is not to bad. We will be there one whole week on Monday. It is still nothing like having your own home though. We HOPEFULLY close on our house this Wednesday, so that will be so nice. Adam and I have started looking for houses even though we are not planning on buying or building until next year sometime! We are not sure which one we are going to do yet! I have a check list of things that I want my next house to have so if we can find one that has everything then we may just buy one that is already built! So if anyone knows any good deals on some lots let me know!

Adam is loving school and is doing very well. It is so funny how things work out better then you could ever expect! We are so excited for him to get a job that we will always know how much is coming in. He will be done with school in April sometime and then we will see what happens from there!

Bridger is growing like CRAZY and is a TALKING machine! He can say just about everything you ask him to say and his starting to jibber alot! He is getting so big and so tall. We just love this little boy so much!

My job is going wonderful! It has been so fun working with Steph and all the kids! I LOVE IT! I picked up another gymnastics class at Idaho Elite so this Tuesday will be my first day! It is fun to get out of the house a little, get paid well and still only have to be away from my son for only 5 hours a week. What is better then that?

We are all doing well and trying to adjust to this change in our life. I know this is the direction that the lord wanted us to go. It is so nice that Bridger can see his grandparents all the time! Well this is all for know! I hope to find my camara cord so I can download some pics!

Crazy Last Week!!

Even though this is our last couple days in our house we decided that we could make time to go to the fair! We had a blast! It is amazing how things change after you have kids! Even though Bridger was not old enough to ride the big rides we managed to find this little car section where he could play! Here are a couple of our pictures!























Last night some of our friends through a surprise going away party for us a Sizzler! These girls are what make it so hard to leave! Kristi and I were visiting teaching partners and we clicked instantly. Emily was my roommate back in the day while I was going to ISU. Jeanette was a sister that Kristi and I went visiting teaching together. Oh I love these girls so much, they always seem to put a smile on my face. There are so many more people that I have recently met that just moved into the ward that I will miss dearly! You know who you ladies are! I know that the Lord had intended us to move here to help my testimony grow. We have such amazing people in this ward and I have learned so much from each of them. Heidi was an amazing Sunday school teacher. Thanks to all you that made this experience one that we will never forget!































This is Bridger trying to be like dad. Adam was putting some finishing touches on the sliding door and Bridger brought in this piece of wood to help him.



















This is a video of Bridger riding his motorcycle!


Last but not least. We have a total of 1 full day in our house! This has been such a bitter sweet experience. I am so happy to move on and see what the Lord has in store for us and at the same time I am so sad to not see all those familiar faces. I am glad that Pocatello is only 45 minutes away! I know that the Lord has had a hand in all this! We sold our house sooo fast and the fact that they wanted to move in ASAP! We sold our truck in 2 days and our couches in a week. My dad called a couple days ago and said that we should be able to get Adam a job when he is done with school! All this has been such a great blessing. Well next time I update we will no longer be home owners and will be moved in with my grandma.

Fun pictures and videos of Bridger

As you can see Bridger has been very busy helping me clean lately!! I would say that Bridger know what the word no means!! What do you think?




Bridger and Bronco have become good friends! Bridger loves to give Bronco kisses usually after he is done torturing Bronco!



















I got a job!! Well it is a really part-part time job but i am so excited!! My friend Stephanie hooked me up!! I owe you big Steph! I am going to be doing a couple different classes. I am doing a kid Cheer class with Stephanie a gymnastics class and maybe some dance classes! It is going to be super fun to work with the kids and hang out with Stephanie again!!





So I think our plan as of right now is that we are closing on our house on the 25th! You heard me right we have a 3rd and hopefully final buyer!! I am not going to say that it is sold until we close, it seems to always come back to bite me! The papers are signed and are going to be handed in tomorrow to the financing company! I have no one else but the lord to thank for this blessing! I know that he knew what we needed! I am so grateful for the power of prayer!

Cute pictures and updates

Since we are moving back to Idaho Falls soon we are trying to get our stuff in order and we decided before we headed out we better go see the grandparents, they had not seen Bridger for awhile. Bridger loves animals but he really like this kitten at there house!! Here are some cute pictures!! Adam started school and he loves it! We are so excited to see where this job will take us. I think that our plan for sure is to get a job with a rent-a-tech and travel for 1-2 years. I have always wanted to travel so why not get paid well while you do it! We have another person that wants to buy our house! They just moved here from Texas and are really excited about it! Nothing is final tell you close though!!

Updates

First off to update you on our house! It is sold.We have buyers and have started the paper work. They are going to rent our house until they close in November. We are a little nervous but we are going to trust them! It is such a bittersweet feeling. I am so happy to be closer to our family, but I am so sad to leave my house and my ward! I know the lord knows what is best forour family!!




Adam starts school on the 24th of this month. We are pretty nervous and excited at the same time. He is going into the Radcon Tech program at EITC. We are so excited to see what this job will bring.




Of course we can't leave out my crazy kid! Adam was working on the steps to our deck and went to check on Bridger and found this!! An Open car door....................














He had climbed in the back seat over the arm rest to the front seat and was turning on the hazard lights!! I tell you this kid can figure anything out!!



















Here are a couple of cute videos that we have taken lately I hope that you enjoy!! To see what is going on in the couponing world click HERE

Changes



















I guess that Adam and I are going through some changes in our life! For those of you who don't know Adam is going back to school! We are excited and nervous at the same time. Our house is up for SALE! We are a little sad about that, our ward is AMAZING!! There is just something special about the people in this ward, they are so carrying! We are going to try to sell it on our own and if nothing happens then we are going to list with a Realtor! Adam starts school the end of August! I thought that after he graduated that we would be done for awhile, I guess not! This is going to open up some good opportunities for our family in the future and hopefully do some traveling along the way!
