snowy, snowy day

This is a photo of our first snowman and snowdog of the season. It has finally warmed up enough to make the snow packable (the first sign of spring here in Rigby!).

We are hoping to be in a permanent residence by the end of March--just in time to start working our new acre of mud!

Visiting Boise

It was Kick-off Boise this past weekend and we were there! It was weird to go to Boise and be visitors. We had a great weekend, but we are glad we are back here in Rigby (even though it is spring in Boise, and definitely still winter here!)

We are still searching for a permanent residence. It is hard to feel settled in this rental, even though it is very nice. And it is hard to be patient with the search.

My ankle healed well enough to dance with my team. We did great on our dances! I did so-so on my solos. It was really fun. I miss Boise Cloggers.

Please go to http://picasaweb.google.com/mitzihull to see my photo gallery of the competition, or to http://www.americaonstage.org/Competitions/KOC/Boise/kocboisehome.htm to see results and pictures. John was great to hang out and take pictures while Madi and I danced!

We now live in Rigby...

Well, we are here! It has literally cost us blood, sweat and tears (and more tears), but we are now official Rigby-ites (Taylor and Madison are denying this currently--they say their home is still in Boise, but as of today, the house at 1618 Malad Circle belongs to someone else!)

We are currently renting and looking for a home to buy. Taylor goes to the largest elementary school in the state of Idaho (960+ kids, grades kindergarten-5th), and is trying to adjust to her new teacher and new class. Madi goes to jr high (8-9th grade) and will be going on her first ever ski trip today to Kelly Canyon Ski Resort.

Our new ward is very friendly and nice. Madi has already been involved in New Beginnings and a Daddy Daughter Party in Young Women's, and we have been here only for 2 weeks. Taylor will have her first Activity Day next week.

I had a little accident on the stairs last week which resulted in a trip to the "doc in the box" for some x-rays on my ankle and foot. Luckily there is no break--but I am impatiently trying to recover so that I will be able to participate in the Boise Competition with my clogging team next weekend. My foot is an interesting shade of blue currently. I am walking on it now...
