Good News/Bad News

So, on July 9th Ammon received a call from the state of Idaho asking him if he would like to work for them as a Case Manager in Children and Family Services! He was so excited because when he had his interview with them a week before, they said that he would get a call from them by Wed. if he got the job. Since, they hadn't called on Wed. he thought that he didn't get the job and was a little bummed! When he told me that he got the job offer in another city, I was a little stressed and overwhelmed! I told him that we needed to go to the Temple and see if it was right for us to move to Twin! I of course do not want to move! Well, we couldn't find a babysitter, so I watched the boys while Ammon went to the Temple! He came out and said that he feels like this move will be a good move and the best thing for us right now! I am still having a hard time accepting that! Maybe before we move (on the 23rd) I will be able to go to the Temple and find peace! Well, Ammon called and accepted the job on Monday the 12th while we were there looking at apartments to rent! We found one after a very long day of driving, looking, and calling phone numbers that no one answered! We are excited for this apartment because it has a fire place in the living room and is two bedroom, one and a half bath, new carpet, new vynil, new microwave, new stove/oven, and the best part (tells you how old the apartment is) a radio installed in the kitchen! It has a nice walkin pantry for food storage and a nice walkin master closet! It is on two floors and has a carport also! The bad news is that we won't get to really enjoy the new swing set that is coming together very nicely, we have to rent an apartment instead of being at a nice house rent free, miss all of the produce from the garden that we planted, and have to figure out how to pack up all of our stuff to move it (luckily it was all put in storage so, once we find a way to get the stuff to the new city, it should be an easy move)! The good news, is that it now has a temple which will only be a few blocks away from us! Yeah! Well, once we get the move and get internet, I will do more posts from the fun that we have had at Granny and Grandad's place (so keep in touch)!

Way to go Ammon! It is always hard to move, especially once you've gotten cozy where you're at. Your new place sounds great though. Good luck with the move!
