Dang!!

Well I just had a new post written, and when I tried to post it, it deleted itself!! Oh well...here we go again!

So as I was saying, Micah and I are staying really busy with school, and Micah with work as well. He is working for the ISU maintenance department. It's not his favorite job; he's used to working hard and fast, and it's a little different there. Sounds like not a lot gets done in the time they have. Oh well, it's a job!

Last week we went to the 6th Ward for the first time. It seems to be a nice ward. One of my friends from the nursing program is in the ward, and there are a lot of other friendly couples. Clint and Melissa Vickery are also in that ward. It seems strange all be couples--quite different from the singles' wards, but I think I'm liking it! After church we had dinner with Andy and KJ. We had pot roast and vegetables, and Andy brought a fruit salad; KJ brought himself. :) It was fun. I'm glan Andy made the right decision and came back to ISU instead of BSU.

Tuesday we went to steak night at Press Box. Delish! Andy, Bonnie Dance, Todd Wight, Dan Hines, Blake, and Todd Hubbard all were there with us. It was fun! Micah has been able to play soccer with a few groups this past week. He's enjoying it, and I'm glad he's getting some time to play. I joined the "Get-Fit" program at ISU recreation, and the classes are kickin my trash! I am so sore today, and Micah thinks it's soooo funny to whack my butt or squeeze my legs...NOT funny!!!! Dumb boys!

Today we woke up to thunder, lightening, and lots of rain! It is getting colder for sure! I'm scared for the cold season--Poky is merciless, and our apartment is old and drafty and will be expensive to heat! Lots of blankets! Dian--your quilt is already being well-used! And it is so nice!!! Thanks! We had to go to Rupert to meet KJ because my mom and Uncle Korth sent fresh fruit and veggies. YUM!!! I love it!! Mom also sent some fresh homemade bread! Poor Micah, I'm not the best cook, but I'm working on it!

Alright Dian, here's another post. So I'm in nursing school, which is taking over my life, so if there is anyone besides Dian that reads this, I apologize! :)

Micah and I moved into our apartment in Pocatello where we are both attending Idaho State University. It is a very old apartment, and it was kinda ugly. Fortunately our landlord let us paint, and it looks SO MUCH BETTER! We moved all the furniture in, and the first weekend we were here I got the stomach flu. Pretty gross, and kind of embarassing in front of my new husband! So we got a little behind on the unpacking (seeing how most of it was my stuff). We jumped into school and time has flown! Micah had a rough first day of school. First, he couldn't get into the classes he wanted (I didn't do a very good job of putting together a schedule for him--after he saw an advisor, he changed his pre-major). He spent all day at the school trying to figure things out, and nothing was working. Then he got our car towed and it cost us a chunk of money! It was kind of funny, but I felt really bad because it was just adding to the stress! Anyway, it was just a different start than we would have liked! :)

We were able to go home for my cousin's farewell. Chris Elliott is going to South Korea. His mom is Korean, so we like to say he is going to his homeland. :) The next weekend we also went home to see Micah's brother whom we hadn't seen for most of the summer. His family went four-wheeling at the Moses' ranch on Dry Buck. It was a blast! Kara Thayn (Moses) brought out some of the horses and we did a little barrel-racing. My groin was sore for a few days--not gonna lie! But we really had so much fun!!! My parent's house has been fun! We have two foreign exchange girls, Hertina is from Taiwan and Fernanda is from Brazil. They are sweet girls, and we're glad they goined the family! That's about it for us!!
