We found out he got the job a week and a half ago and he started his first day of work TODAY! Sheesh. We have been hustlin and bustlin. We started packing and drove to Billings this last Friday (about a 6 hour drive from Rexburg) to find a place to live. Luckily we found a lovely 2 bedroom apartment next to the river with a garage!
Saturday we drove back to Rexburg, Sunday we taught our last Sunday school lesson, Dane left Sunday after church.
I am in Rexburg packing, eating, feeding Zoey, changing Zoey, setting up Immunizations for Zoey, figuring out car insurance, selling furniture, and the list goes on.
The whole thing definitely feels bittersweet. We are grateful for this great opportunity but very sad to leave friends, family, our ward, and Rexburg. We are definitely leaving our comfort zone.
Dane is even missing hunting season (it started today). He can't hunt in Montana until he gets his residency.
Dane will be back in Rexburg this Saturday to load our stuff and then we are blessing Zoey Sunday. What an adventure.
Here is our new home:
Population: 100,000
Elevation: 3124 feet
Land area: 33.7 square miles

what an adventure! enjoy it!
he only has to wait 2 months and during that time he'll be too busy getting settled to notice. maybe you could come visit and he and andrew can go fishing together. i hope you get settled soon and start making friends.
Congrats on the job! I hope the move goes well and that you get settled in fast!
Congratulations! I hope everything is going well in Montana and that Dane likes his work. Best of luck!
