The Move...Again!!!

Yes it is true, we have moved again. For those of you that haven't heard yet we moved down to Kimberly Idaho a month ago. We relocated so Taylor could open up another division of Eaglewood. For those of you who are unfamiliar with Kimberly we are about 7 miles from Twin Falls. The company purchased some land where they will eventually build a subdivision, meanwhile, we are living in the farm house that is located on the property. It has truly been an adventure!! When we first moved in, we couldn't get the heat to work, so we spent our first night in a hotel. Our heat runs on heating oil which is pumped from our tank in the backyard. With gas prices up so high it hasn't been cheap to run the furnace. Just last Sunday the water stopped working!! We were afraid that maybe our well had dried up or that the pump had stopped working. Luckily it was just the filter needing to be changed. We have officially killed 3 mice and about 250,000 spiders and counting. It was a rocky first couple of weeks but it has gotten better each and every day. We have enjoyed being surrounded by 40 acres of property and living in a small town. We love our ward and are really looking forward to the next few years. Here are some pictures of our home and what we see each day when we look out our window.

Congrats on the move! Sorry to hear that the first few weeks were rough.

Now that you're somewhat closer, maybe Katie and I will have to take a day trip to come visit you guys! We're in Michigan for the holidays but maybe after the 1st of the year.

Happy Holidays!
