We are moving!
We have some good friends, the Appels, who live pretty close to us. Matt (Page) and Matt Appel were mission companions, and now we even have kids the same ages. We hang out with them fairly often (at least in our standards of doing things). Matt Appel's parents decided to buy a house down the street from his little family. It was a good deal on a foreclosure. They currently live in California. Well, they are going on a mission this October, so they offered to let us rent their house for... get this.... $10 LESS A MONTH than we are paying for our apartment! They are just fixing up some things that were trashed, with it being a foreclosure, and then we are moving in! We have 25 days until we have to turn in our keys to Monarch Meadows Apartments. In those 25 days we have: a cousin leaving on a mission, a cousin coming home from a mission, an all day wedding, and a completely different wedding reception, dermatologist appointments, hair cut appointments, family pictures, preparing for family pictures, Matt working another 82 hour week, plus packing and moving, with Cooper's first birthday 3 days after we turn our keys in. We are looking forward to a crazy busy month!
I can not even begin to tell you how excited I am to be moving into a HOUSE! It is going to be such a great opportunity for us. Even though it is only temporary, it will be awesome! I am just dreaming every day of all the nice things... more living space, more storage space, a deeper sink, a bigger kitchen... we will have so much space, we won't know what to do with it! hooray!!!
This is by far the luckiest thing that has ever happened to us.... if you want to know the story of how it really was just FATE... let me know!

HOORAY!!! That is so exciting Jo! Do you need help moving?? Let me know the date(s) and I would be HAPPY to help!
That's so awesome! You will be right in our neighborhood and in the same ward as us. Can't wait! You will LOVE the area. It is by far the BEST neighborhood I have ever lived in. Lots of cute moms and lots of cute kids. We get together often too. It will be so fun for Ella to have a little girl her age. (most the kids her age are boys:)
Thats so awesome jo I'm so happy for you guys. How long will you be there for?
That's so exciting! It's nice when everything works out so perfectly!
