Twin Fall, Idaho....here we come!!

Phew, we finally made it!! After a lot of plan A's, B's, C's, and even D's fell through for us, a plan E magically appeared!! So we were able to move to Twin Falls, Idaho where my ultrasound clinicals are and Joe can attend his classes on campus instead of online. It worked out for both of us and we are very grateful!! When I was doing my first week of clinicals January 9-11, Joe was sweet enough to go apartment shopping. He went to quite a few and was nervous to go without me. However, we found a basement apartment in Buhl, which is about 14 miles west of Twin Falls. We were kind of excited to move to a little town, and were beyond excited of having only one ward meet in a building....that would be a guarantee of 10:00 church every year for us!!

We were beyond excited and organized a moving crew to meet up with us Saturday, which entailed Sally and Phil (Joe's mom and brother). We packed up the U-Haul from a storage unit we had in Twin Falls, and headed to Buhl...just to realize that the steps were way too steep to get furniture in, let a lone the washer and dryer through the bathroom door...YIKES!! Needless to say, we were frustrated. Our neighbor didn't help with the issue...lighting up a bombfire to burn his garbage and blasting AC/DC. Note: his home is a mobile home and a shack... He hangs out outside everytime we come and it's FREEZING outside. Doesn't give the warmest feelings...

So we ended up bunking with Sally and Phil at the Super 8, and we looked for more options on Craigslist....just to find a treasure!! We called them at 8:30 pm and was able to see the apartment Sunday at 11:00...to sign the contract and get the key!! Our U-Haul had to be back by 2:30 or we would get an additional $40 charge. So Joe and Phil were brutes and got the job done by 2:15!! Beyond impressive and what a miracle!! We really thought we were out of luck, but have been beyond blessed.

Interesting note: the landlord said that the building was built in 1905 (it has 4 apartments) and was the original first Catholic Church in the city. How fun is that!?! Our front room/kitchen has high ceilings and the front entry way is the original wood floor....I am in LOVE!! LOL, so was Sally and Phil. It is quirky, cute, and homey. I will post pictures as soon as we get the boxed out of the way and moved in...which could be a LONG time ;0)

Our new address is:
501 2nd Ave. East Apt. #1
Twin Falls, ID 83301
