The Second Move-Wisconsin to Wyoming {with some Colorado in between}

So much, and at the same time, so little has happened since June. We embraced all of the troubles and excitements of moving to a new state. I think I shall begin there as even though it all occurred just months ago, I am again wondering how I ended up in yet another "W" state.

Rewind back to Verona, Wisconsin: Adam and I were walking to Culver's one night. {I always justify these trips by convincing myself the walk canceled out the calories from the $1 treat we would consume. Magically, I still put on about 5 pounds while living in the dairy and beer capital of the U.S.A.} We got to discussing how great it would be to spend the summer in Colorado. It then dawned on us that there was really no reason to stay in Wisconsin as the move to Wyoming was eminent. 

So, in the next week both of our amazing, gracious, loving sets of parents journeyed from Colorado to, again, help us relocate. Our dearest Peter and Brit drove over from Milwaukee to help us load the truck. On June 21, 2014 we said goodbye to 530 Enterprise, our wonderful neighbors, and the state of Wisconsin. 

My car---Adam's car---my Mom's SUV---my mother-in-law's van---and our U-Haul truck then proceeded to drive though Wisconsin, Minnesota, South Dakota, and finally into Wyoming. We put all of our belongings in storage and met our new realtor, Judy, who I am still convinced was a gift directly from heaven. Under her expertise and organization we saw about 20 houses over the next two days. We made an offer. God didn't want us in that house. Made another offer and headed to Colorado for the rest of the summer. God didn't want us in that house either. {And come to find out, PRAISE JESUS} Fast forward to August: At this point Adam was close to starting work. Our angel Judy let us live in one of her rental houses for a reduced rate AND overlooked the fact that we own two large white dogs who are usually not welcome in her rentals. We made yet another offer. We found where God wanted us this time around. Six weeks later we moved into our perfect, cozy new Wyoming house.
