Moving Day

What a crazy, crazy turn of events. I feel like I've told this story until I'm blue in the face, but just for the blog..... We had our house on the market for 11 mo. With the goal of finally being able to move to Utah. Chuck company Affinity Media was going to allow him to work from home in the Salt Lake City area. Showing the house almost 35 times and having about 15 open houses, was probably about the hardest 11 months of my life. And at the same time allowing our family to still "live " in our home. We loved our home that we built almost 8 years ago, but moving West was finally with in reach. We hadn't had any offers on our house in about 10 months, then in one weekend we had 3 offers. We accepted an offer and declined the other two. We were very excited and nervous at the same time, because we needed to figure out where to live for the last 2 months of school...but then we were headed to Zion! Well all of that changed, because the very same day that we signed papers selling our house, Chuck was offered a job that her couldn't pass up. About a week before this, he had gone to Middlebury to meet a new ward mission leader that moved here from Idaho, Bro. Jenkins. He had invited him to come see and tour his new factory at Jayco. Chuck had done this not thinking about anything, just talking about Church stuff. Well Bro. Jenkins handed Chuck a job opportunity. We now had a great new job , with more stability, and had just sold our wonderful home. We enlisted Monique to help us look for a house, and she found us a rental in Prairie Lane Estates. Certainly not what were used to (about 30 years old and about 1/2 as big as our Coveside house). But we feel blessed that we found something.
