The Sabbatical

I realized the other day how long it has been since we last posted an entry on our blog.  Our sabbatical was for good reason though.  Zack finished school and we moved up to Idaho to live with his parents until he enters active duty in December.  Although we certainly miss Provo, we weren't completely sad to leave because we will be back in August for Graduation and Commissioning.

The highlight from the last week though was Mitchel's excitement in being able to ride in the moving truck with Daddy.  I cannot begin to describe how he would light up and how animated he would become in telling me the stories of his trip with Daddy.  I know that he will cherish that time with his Dad and even though he might not remember it, his Dad sure will.

A piece of advice to anyone that is moving in the near future though: Penske is a great moving company!  We originally were going to rent a Uhaul truck just because that is the first company I think of when moving.  However, my best friend was telling me that when her sister-in-law  used Uhaul, it almost broke down on them a couple of times.  I asked for a free quote from Penske online and then when someone followed up with me, I received a discount of almost $75.  We didn't have any problems with the truck and it was unlimited mileage!

On the other hand, we are settled in Idaho, enjoying the different scenery and enjoying our time with family!
