Found!

We found an apartment! Well, it's actually a condo. A fancy condo. Which is kind of weird for me. But it sure is pretty. Apparently this particular condo has been available for a while and has come down $250 since it was first listed, which put it just barely into our price range. Sweet.

The best thing about it is that it has an attached garage. A garage! I've never had a garage in which to park. The garage in my parent's house was for storage of stuff, not vehicles. I've always parked outside. Having a garage means that I can put the boys into the car without being snowed/rained on. Glorious.

The next big step is to actually move. We get the keys on Friday and have to be out of our current apartment by the 30th. I want to be totally moved by Thanksgiving, which is a little crazy. The big problem is that we think we'll move our stuff on Monday or Tuesday of next week, which isn't a great day for calling the Elder's Quorum and asking them to help lift stuff. My parents and my Grandma are coming for Thanksgiving, so they'll be here for all baby-wrangling purposes. I know that I'll be of slightly more help than I was the last time we moved, because I'm not eight-months pregnant (or any-months pregnant for that matter) and can actually carry stuff. But I'll be honest, I'm not that strong. This leaves Bryan as our muscle, which he can totally be, but I don't think he can lift all of our furniture by himself.

That said is anyone available and willing to help us move on Monday or Tuesday?

Oh, and I'm not saying where we're moving to, cause this is the internet and I'm appropriately paranoid. But it's not far from where we are now and closer to where we lived last.

I'm available in the evenings on those days. Too bad I'm in a different State!

We can help! At least one night anyway. Do you have enough boxes or need help packing? KSL.com has boxes listed for free all of the time in the free section if you want to check it out. Let me know the details.

I wish we could help, but Will and I are both up to our ears in school, especially during the week. VERY best of luck, though, and congrats on the garage!! We need to plan a get-together again so that Will and I can bring your seasons of The Office back! Sorry we've kept them so long even though we've been done with them for...uh...a few months? *blushing*
