Moving on....again

Well, it seems as if Beau and I are meant to live an insanely crazy life. We have learned to swing at even the craziest curve balls and hit a homerun every time. We have moved 5 times in the 2 years that we have been blissfully wed and it seems the sixth move is right around the corner.

This is our lovely apartment where we currently reside. It is a fuzzy picture but I couldn't find another one that looked good so this is what you get. It looks a little different because we have added stuff but, you get the idea.

Our first apartment in Cedar City was this little basement in an 8-plex. We really enjoyed living here and we loved being able to have our little puppy with us. I can't wait to move and get a new dog!
Our California apartment was very nice and very fun also. I liked living there because I never had to worry about rent or utilities :). But, the appliances were brand new so that was also a plus.
Jim and Mechel were gracious and loving enough to allow us to live with them for four months after our landlord died and we were kicked out of our first apartment. I had mono and was sick most of it but, we really enjoyed our time there and are grateful that we had a place to land for a while before we left for California.
Our beloved first apartment at 1514 23rd street. We loved this apartment because we got to paint the apartment and make it our own. Too bad Fern had to pass away and we were kicked out...oh well the apartment was haunted anyway. No kidding it really was!!
So you can see that moving is in our blood. We have become pros at packing, sorting, getting rid of junk, and moving in record time. Our next move is an exciting one. To give you the short and sweet version of a very long story that I have told at least 12 times, Beau is not on track for graduation. His adviser kind of didn't really pay attention to him as an individual and kind of screwed us over. Pretty much he cannot do anything in math until he takes calculus 2 which he will not be able to take until fall 2010 which means he can' t start the math program until spring 2011. Also, we found out that his adviser was having him take education classes when he is not admitted into the program and they won't let him into the program until he finishes his math major. Confusing? Yeah, I know. Anyway we got screwed over but, we look at it as a great blessing. So we had to make a decision for our future pretty quick. Since graduation at SUU is estimated for Fall 2014 we decided that there was no way we were going to wait another 4 years. Beau already has his associates degree after this semester and so we prayed, fasted, and went to the temple looking for guidance on what to do. The answer came swiftly and with assurance. In fact, it came so swiftly I thought that it must be the wrong choice because things don't usually come that easily for us. So we will be moving in May so Beau can start the education program and the math program in June at.....
What? I have never in my life thought about living in Logan. I have only ever been there once and we just drove through but, it is where our next move is. It just feels so right! He will start summer school right away and he can apply for the education department in January and be working on it at the same time as the math program. It is such a blessing. We are really sad to be moving away from Cedar City. We have made lots of really great friends here and have built our lives here. This move will be very different than all our other moves because we will have a 5 month old coming with us but, we know the Lord will take care of us as long as we are doing what he asks.

So with this I would like to make the announcement to our friends in Cedar City that we are quitting the apartment manager job in May and so if you are interested let me know. It's a GREAT opportunity and Brad is an awesome guy so let us know!!
