We now live in St. Paul, MN! Here are some pictures from the move, our apartment, and some sight seeing.......
Madison snuggled up with Daddy in our empty apartment.
This is how we lived for a day in our apartment. JD's family came down and helped us load the uhaul on Saturday. We left enough clothes out to make it till we got to MN and that was about all! We slept on our air matress Sat night and spent Sunday sitting on the floor leaning against the wall!
We left Sunday evening around 7:45ish, and drove 2 1/2 hours to Rock Springs, WY. My fam came with us and we couldn't have made it without them! My Dad drove the Uhaul and JD drove our car. We spent Monday night is Mitchell South Dakota, and arrived in St. Paul, MN Tuesday at about 4:00.

Along the way I noticed this rock/mountain that looked familiar!......We ended up driving right passed Devils Gate and Martins Cove. We stopped long enough to feed Madison and take a few pictures. We hope to go back and spend a couple hours there walking around!
The Sweet Water that the pioneers had to cross in the middle of winter.
Devils Gate
Madison was SO great on the long trip. She slept for most of it and wanted to eat at times that worked well for us! We were so blessed!

What a sleepy head!
The hubby driven. He and my Dad drove the whole way without switching with someone else!
This is Madie asleep the first night in our new apartment
Before my family flew back to Idaho we wanted to do some sight seeing. We don't know much about the place yet but we did know about the St Paul Catholic Cathedral. It was neat and very big.
A view of the capital from the cathedral.

Madison slept all through the cathedral
It's hard to see just how big this really is
The windows in this place were very neat and there are LOTS of them.

The fam out front


We then went to the St Paul Temple! Is was very small compared to the Ogden and SLC temples! But still just as beautiful - and it has such a wonderful feeling! I was glad we went there, it helped calm some of my fears.
Our family! Madison is asleep - again!
That's all for now. We're happy and doing well. I'll post more pictures and videos as they come along. JD is going to make video of our apartment sometime today and then I'll post that as well.
We love you all and miss you.
Thanks again to my wonderful family - your help is SO very much appreciated. We had a great couple days with you! LoVe Ya!

CUTE apartment!! I'm SO glad you guys made it safe, and Madison was AWESOME for you!! I will make plans and come visit sometime. But remember, when you're back in Idaho, give me a call so I can see you!!
Awesome. Our car is packed and I am very impatiently counting down the minutes!!!
Glad you made it safe.
You guys are going to have so much fun with that new fangled "indoor plumbing", you are not going to have time to play your PS3! Feel free to ship it to me and I will make sure it receives the attention it deserves.

Indoor Plumbing, Yeah!
Dear Dillon. Thank you for being willing to take in my lonely PS3. I have boxed it up and shipped it to you. Just wait for it to arrive. Sincerely, JD.
Wow. You guys are awesome! We are so glad that you made it safe and without any complications. It looks like a beautiful area and like everything is coming together for you guys. Madison is getting so big. What a pretty girl. Good luck! And keep in touch:)
