We moved!

It was hectic getting away and left later then planned. Uhaul told us we could tow our car with a two wheel trailer, but we really couldn't. We were planning on leaving around 4 or 5 Wednesday morning but didn't leave till after 12pm. After we got on the road it was a long drive! We had to go 65 with the Uhaul and trailer. We listened to the third Fablehaven and that helped the trip go by faster.

Having fun driving :)

Luckily we had made some new friends here in Lincoln and they were able to pick up our apartment key. We would arrive in the middle of the night and obviously the office isn't open then :) Thanks Chad and Michelle for meeting us at 3 in the morning! I fell asleep a few times for short about of times. Bryson was a trooper, usually I help drive but not with all the stuff. The last hour was a hard stretch to stay awake and we didn't want to pull over when we were so close. Eventually we made it though. We pulled in late and luckily our mattress was in the back of the truck. Suddenly we got a little extra energy seeing our apartment and everything. We unloaded a few things and went to bed.

Thursday morning we grabbed breakfast and picked up some pictures. Last time we came, Sears gave us a free picture. I ended up buying a couple more. They aren't the best pictures but they will have to do.

I unpacked things all day Thursday slowly as Bryson brought them in. Some guys from our ward came around 6 and got everything else unloaded. Bryson and I tried to get the family room and Akoy's room ready and we pretty much did. Made a quick trip to Walmart around 2 in the morning and Kieth and Kelley (who kept Akoy for a day) arrived shortly thereafter. It was nice to see Akoy though. I missed him so much! I hated that night away from him, however I know I couldn't get much done with him here.

They made a quick stop

Since we have been here we are almost unpacked, just a couple random boxes left. We still need to hang frames. We have made many trips to the garbage! I couldn't believe how much trash we had after putting our bedroom set and table together. Everything turned out pretty cute, if you ask me ;) We did have to put our desk in our closet because of room. Oh well!
So unfortunately our apartment complex doesn't get AT&T service. For the first few days we had to walk outside to get somewhat service! It was ridiculous! Saturday we went to the store to see what we could do. They had a Micro cell tower (kinda like a mini cell tower) that would allow us to get service when we are in our apartment. Luckily we got a good deal because our reception was so poor. We hooked up our internet and TV as well that day. It's amazing how you can go from nothing to DVR, Cable, Internet with Wifi and our little tower all within 24 hours.

Funny moving story. We bought a bed and mattress before we left, then put it together here. After a night of having everything set up, we slept and woke up to two indentions in our bed. Almost like our memory foam wasn't coming back up. It was so retarded. We had to sleep in a pit for a couple nights. We had a hard time calling to complain (remember no cell service till late sat night), so we waited for a until Monday. Sunday, our mattress kept falling into our box springs. This was so dumb and just getting worse. I had no idea what the company would even do for us since we moved. Later on that night we realized we were the stupid ones. Our box springs mattress was upside down and our mattress was caving into it. After some switching around of things our bed is no longer broken. I was glad I hadn't called yet since after all, it was our error. Little humbling for us :) I am still mad about our dresser and mirror- they don't go together and RC Willey won't do anything about it because it's the companies fault... so dumb!

In other news, Bryson bought a bike and seat for Akoy to ride it. They have already gone swimming and ran a few errands for me! They have a long month ahead of them! I started working yesterday. Nothing like my old job, I really miss it. There are 24 kids between the age of 4-5 and they are loud! I like being with them and some of them have already found a place in my heart. I don't mind the people I work with. I worked with amazing people before so it's hard to replace them. It doesn't help that i'm the only LDS person their and I rather not be a part of their conversations. It's really not that bad, I do like it and I will enjoy it. Two days down! ha :)

Good news today, we got our mattress for our couch- Long story, we bought the couch from Bryson's aunt and the mattress had a couple dead rats in it. We bought a new one and then couch cover is getting dry cleaned as we speak! yuck!

Akoy loves laying down on things
(-don't mind my huge shirt, I just got home from work,
and I have to wear their shirts and all they have is Large)
