Final moments in Idaho!

We miss Idaho Falls! We didn't expect to miss it this much. We love Utah but we miss our friends in Idaho, having our own place, our backyard (and backyard buddies Bailey and Kaydence), our routine, the familiarity of everything, our ward, our callings, etc. Here are some pics from our final days in Idaho:

                               Sam and Bailey

There was an occasional disadvantage to sharing a backyard with 7 other units, but mostly it was awesome. Everyone shared toys but mostly they played with Tanner's toys because he had so many! Sam could go out there any time and almost always another kid would come out to play too. Bailey and Sam are just a week apart and Kaydence is 4. We miss those two!

 Eliza at 5 months!

The photo shoot obviously went a little long...

She loves to roll part way under the couch and play with the fabric. She laughs and squeals and is so much fun.
Sam still has an obsession with the pacifier, even Eliza's. One day he climbed in her crib and I walked in and saw this:

Elder Braby and Elder Hedgecock came to say bye to Caleb. They love Caleb! He taught a lesson with them to Tayler Lyons about every week for the past several months. They are really great Elders.
Wow moving is a LOT of work!! We thought we could load up the moving truck all by ourselves so we said no to a lot of people who offered to help. Turns out we needed the help.  Thursday after work Caleb picked up the Uhaul and we loaded it that evening. Our neighbors the Jaegers were lifesavers. Jeanelle helped watch kids while Bjoern carried big loads with Caleb. Our neighbor Mario, Josh Dalton, the Griggs, and Dan Stevens were also really helpful. We barely fit everything in the truck and cars!! Next time we'll be getting a bigger truck. Friday was cleaning day. Amanda Jones watched Sam for a few hours while we cleaned and Heather Redd came over and helped us scrub walls. Jake, who will be our maintenance/cleaning guy for the fourplex, came and helped too.
I got a ticket on my way out of town... trying to catch Caleb in the Uhaul because he had my cell phone!!! Grrr. :) I'll try to block out that final memory of Idaho.
