Well, we left Arizona on Friday (which happened to be my 25th birthday... pretty exciting day, boy I am getting old!). We went up to Utah and visited some family and friends... it was freezing cold and didn't know what we got ourselves into, (it snowed in the beginning of October, can you believe that!). On Sunday morning we were headed to church and our truck didn't start! Talk about freakin out... we realized it was the battery and after giving it a little jump (and a few prayers) it started right up and we haven't had a problem with it since. On Monday we started our journey eastward, just so you know, Wyoming and Nebraska are the longest states in the world!! It seemed like forever just to get to North Platte, Nebraska where we stayed the first night of our drive. On Tuesday we made it the rest of the way here to Valparaiso, IN. We stayed at a Best Western the first two nights, a little ghetto and it smelled so we decided to move into Holiday Inn Express instead. It is wonderful! A kitchenette, laundry room and a soft king size bed (yeah, we're in a suite since the company is paying and we will be here for a while).
We have spent the last two days shopping for mortgage loans and checking out houses. It's an exciting time. Anyways, I have taken pictures of our adventure but do not currently have the capabilities to put it on my computer so this will have to do for now, I will post more later.
FYI, Austin starts working on Monday the 20th, hooray!

Wow i bet it feels nice to just get the drive over with. Good luck with house hunting and all that!
Rather than answer your text (about the game-in-the-envelope) just know that you can throw it away. . . . .We use that one for ring around the rosey, in case you couldn't tell . . . I'm too old to be falling down. . .most likely would have a hard time getting back up again!!!!:)
I look forward to seeing pictures. . . You will be busy next week. . . . just hang in there and don't forget to read your scriptures and have FHE. . . love you both.
What an adventure you are on. I love the moving strategy--with the boxes and knowing exactly what's in each one. Good stuff! Have fun moteling it for now.
