They took all our furniture!!!!
Another funny story that still makes me laugh when I play it over in my head. We got back from our trip to Boise late Sunday night. While we were driving, Emily Merkley had called us and texted us leaving messages like "call me now!!!!" and "This is so important, call me asap!!!" So we call her once we got service up in the high mountains of Colorado. Turns out Icon hadn't told the apartments or the furniture company that we were staying another 2 months, and they wanted us out of our apartment. So we call Josh, well, more like call everyone who is with Josh because he is up in the mountains trying to get a hold of him. He tells us he will make some calls and everything will get worked out. Luckily, we were already planning on moving into Brandon and Hilary's old apartment because it had a garage. So we figured we would do it this next week. So we get to our apartment, unload and go to sleep for the night. Knowing that Josh has worked things out. Now it is Monday morning, Labor day, so we figure we have at least by tuesday to get out, because no one works on Labor day. Well, all of a sudden, someone starts unlocking our door, Nathan comes sprinting around the corner into our bedroom because he was out in the living room with just his garments on, his eyes are wide open, terrified, telling me to get back, get back!!! He gets some clothes on, and goes back out there, luckily we had the deadbolt locked, so he lets them in. It's the furniture people coming to take away all our furniture. Nathan is talking to them and they have already taken out the furniture of the apartment that we were going to move into. Nathan calls a bunch of people, and tried to figure out what is going on. They still needed to take our furniture that day, so they did. They were planning on taking furniture from more apartments, but only scheduled the 2 today because it was Labor Day, and they had volunteered to work to get paid over time. I guess some people DO work on Labor Day. So we had to empty out all our dressers and drawers right then and there, as they dismounted the tables,chairs, dressers and beds and wheeled them out. Literally, 15 minutes later, our apartment was empty, except for all our belongings strewed about on the floor. What are we going to do. They took all our furniture, where are we and our two babies going to sleep!? It really felt like we had just been robbed, and we watched the whole thing! So we finally got a hold of Josh, and found out that Ben and Dena's apartment was not being rented out, so we could move into that one. So we spent the day to be free of Labor, loading car load after car load and driving it around the corner to a new stinky, smoker apartment. It took the whole day!!!!!!! One thing I did realize... we have a lot of stuff here, how did it all get here, and most importantly, how will it all get home to Boise, and where will we put it there?! Anywho, it was kinda crazy, but we are all settled back in Colorado in a new apartment. I still giggle when I think about Nathan coming around that corner so fast with his eyes soooo WIDE open!!!!!! Just had to document it:)

What a crack up!!!! You should have gotten pics!!! TOO funny! Thanks for the sweet note... I too am so glad that so many people have started blogging... with ya'll (mostly, lol) in Idaho and most of us here (well, except college kids) it is REALLY nice to be able to just LOOK and read at what everyone is up to!!! I hope you enjoy your next 2 months in CO and it doesnt get TOO cold TOO soon!
HAha!! That is awesome. I can just picture Nathan's face. I miss you guys. I cannot wait to see what your kids will look like next summer. I'm glad everything worked out and you finally got your garage. Miss you!
You seriously make me sound like a crazy! I guess this should teach you to not listen to Josh because he didn't really fix anything and to listen to Emily because she was the one who knew what was going on. Yep.
