So we are moving to Blackfoot in 2 weeks. Mark got a job there last year but we didn't think that we could stay because we thought they couldn't pay Mark as much as we wanted, so we got a job in Elko, NV and went there to buy a house. We get there, find one, buy it and the next day after we get home Mark's employers give him the raise we wanted so we decided to stay with his company in Blackfoot. Everything worked out too because they hadn't deposited our earnest money check so we were able to get out of buying the Elko house and weren't even out any money. It was VERY stressfull but Mark felt good about being wanted so much. So yep, we are in Idaho for a long time! I am excited to be living close to Mark's work and hopefully have him home a little more (he spends about 1hr/day commuting now. It's not bad but it is still an hour we could have him home for).
With the move coming up we are excited, but there will be a lot of work to do before we move in. We are going to paint the WHOLE house from top to bottom. And paint the cabinets! I can't wait to get started but it will be one heck of a job. The house is on 1 acre and has a great yard with a garden, basketball court, porch outside. Inside it has 5 bd, an office, Living Rm, Family Rm, 3 bath and they all need to be painted! It will be a great house when we move in.
Other than that we've been having a great time celebrating my birthday, Mark's birthday, Valentine's day and having a new niece born. We've been staying busy and the next few weeks won't be any different.
