I know some of you have been wondering about our upcoming move, and what is happening. In April, Craig started work in Roosevelt as a contract pumper. He works up there for 8 days, staying with his brother, and then comes home for 6 days and then returns for another 8 days and so on. It has been a strain on both of us. It is hard for him to be away from the family and it is hard for me to be a single mom half of the time. You might be saying, Megan, why didn't you just move straight to Roosevelt? Well, our house here in Spanish Fork has had renters in it for too long without any real TLC and it was in pretty bad shape. So, in our "spare-time" we have been fixing it up and getting it ready for renters again. It has been a pretty rough few months for everyone, it seems like there isn't enough hours in the day to get everything done.
A month ago, we found a house in Roosevelt that we were interested in. I drove up and we went to see it, and made an offer that night. The house has been in underwriting for a LONG time, and as of today, we have all the proper paper-work and information we needed to close. This morning, Craig was hired on as a full-time employee of Crescent Point (the company he was previously contracting for) and we can now go ahead with the home purchase. HOPEFULLY, we will be moving before the end of the month, though there is no promise of that yet, just high hopes :)
If anyone knows of anyone looking for a place in Spanish Fork, I have a cute 3 bedroom for rent, available August 1st :)

I am glad to hear the anguish of being a single mom will end soon! It's exciting to buy a house (even if it IS in Roosevelt....). I'm happy for you guys. :)
I'm so glad he was hired on full time! So when are we doing dinner before you go?
