T-minus 31 days til we set sail for big sky country! That means only 21 working days left! I can't believe it's come so fast. Last weekend Carolyn and I headed north for an extended weekend to hunt for housing. It rained and rained and rained and rained some more, being from the high dessert area I can honestly say I don't think I've seen so much rain for so long...Overall it was a successful trip but I was so shocked at how hard it is to find decent rentals in the area. According to the locals because of the oil boom in North Dakota a lot of people are relocating to Billings which is one of the closest metropolitan cities. We made about 100 phone calls and drove up and down almost every street up there. Good news is I got a good feel for how to get around. We did find a place and I am super excited! It's a little duplex that is owned by Colton's secretary's mom...did you follow that?. Anyways super nice lady, super nice place and within the budget YAY!!! Our planned moving date is June 22 and I start school July 8. (again still in shock that it's so close).
Good news #2: We are fairly certain Walker has a job working for a surveyor. So relieving to have this taken care of prior to moving. Billings is a little behind on the times and a lot of businesses up there don't have websites making it difficult to find places and work.
So glad things are starting to fall into place. Currently we are just working on checking of items on our Utah county bucket list as well as wrapping up some ongoing projects!
I can't express how excited I am to be at the start of a new adventure and am just about ready for it to be here!!
That is all so exciting Crissy! It is amazing how far we have all come in the last 2 years. I am so excited for your new adventure of moving and school! YAY!!
