march madness

boy are we happy that march is done with. we found out we were being kicked out of our apt 4 weeks ago. this was not due to anything we had done, it was becuase the owner of our apt complex stopped making his mortage payments. so, the government being as they are, decided that money would solve the problem. they let our land lord out of his mortgage and started throwing money at the situation. us being poor newly weds bit the bate and decided to move for mula. a very stressful and long, busy month later we are in our new place. our new place is pretty big and soooo much better then our last place. we have more room and its not tecnically in rexburg any more. :) this is the best part. we are outside of rexburg in a place called salem. from what i understand its a voting district of 10,000 people-or it could have been 1,000 (i past the sign really fast and i need a new perscription). by the way things look out here it may have even been 10,000-1,000 cows not people...anyways-its closer to where i work and we shop in sugar city, "where sweet things grow". i thought that was cute.

one thing that seems to be a little odd about our new place is that the lights in the kitchen go on and off on their own and then they'll come back on and another one will go out. i have decided that it must be a new way of saving energy-not having all the light bulbs on at the same time...andy says we just need to replace them...we'll see.

so after arguing for 15m about who would go get the camera out of the 4-runner i have the camera. :) (its cold outside! lol) here are some pics of what march has been like. enjoy!

this is the kitchen with the lights that are sometimes out. they take turns, its odd


living room-not too bad for just moving in-right?


got to love the midnight pics! this is the midnight 5k andy decided to run the day we moved. our other friend andy called him up and asked if he wanted to join the party-andy immediately thought "what would sam bremmer do?" and then replied yes. we were up till 1am and then got up later that day to move all of our stuff-love it.


this is andy and andy afterwards. they got their butts kicked but did impressively well for just running an impromptu 3.2 miles!


this was a primary activity that we did for st. patricks day. we made little hats and had a cake walk and then went on a hunt to find the missing shamrocks. while they were hunting a leapercon came and put candy in their shoes. too much fun! i am going to miss these guys!
With the new place comes a new ward-wish us luck!


ps-we have lots of boxes. come and get them-please!
