We are here!

Well we are officially residents of Rock Springs, WY now.  We left Cedar City Wednesday March 21 around 2:30pm, it was a slow drive with lots of stops so we stay in Heber, Utah instead of driving at night (I was really freaked out to drive during the day, I wasn't about to do it at night!).  We finally arrived in Rock Springs on Thursday the 22nd around 1:30pm.  Halliburton, the company James works for, had a two bedroom apartment for us to stay in until we found a house so that's where we went when we first got here.  As assume as I think Halliburton is the apartment was AWFUL!  I'm so thankful that we didn't have to stay in it too long.  Friday evening we went to look at a 4 bedroom townhome, Sunday morning the owners called us and told us we could start to move in Monday.  The crazy part...late Saturday night we had to unload the Uhaul truck and trailer into two different storage units because we had to turn the truck in.  James, Bailey, Sabelle and Chad didn't get done unloading the truck and trailer until about 2am Sunday morning...7 hours later we found out we had the house.  Funny how things work out sometimes.

So, since the week we moved was James' week off he had to work the Monday when we were allowed to start moving in.  So during his lunch break for 4 days he would meet us all at the storage unit, we would load the trailer and when he went back to work the rest of us would come back to the house and unload what we could.  Thankfully James had a couple of guys from work come help us unload the really heavy stuff a couple of the nights.  We still have one of the two storage units at least half full.  This house that we have rented is almost half the size of our house in Enoch.  The kitchen is the worst part.  It has NO pantry!!!  How can a house have no pantry? I didn't even notice it when we looked at it.  So now I have three bookshelves in the garage loaded with stuff that should be in a pantry.

And now that we have moved the whole family up to Rock Springs so that we could all be with James...Halliburton has taken him up to Dickinson, ND to work!  Dang them!  He left very early Saturday morning and thought he would only be up there for a week but now we are pretty sure that he won't be home for three weeks.  The good news is that he is making tons of money while being up there, but the bad news is that he will miss Easter and will miss his week off.  But things change daily so who knows!

Anyway, we are here, its windy...ALWAYS!
