So I wrote out a whole long descriptive blog about our first few days here but the computer erased it and now I'm out of time....
1. Learned ALWAYS HIRE MOVERS--they were awesome, I didn't lift a thing!
2. Next time, triple/quadrouple check up on the utilities companies to make sure everything is set up when you arrive. (had no water or gas i.e. no water or heat source wahoo!)
3. Love, love, love our new house--amazing how a nice house makes your furnishings seem even better than before!
4. Went to church, listened to the organist play Enya for postlude music. That's right folks, Enya is officially church worthy in Kingman.
5. Lady bore her testimony wearing a long dark dress, bright purple Harry Potter socks and buckskin slippers. Long live Voldemort!
6. Heard the Sunday School teacher say "well, sorry this is last minute, guess that's what I get for sleeping with the Sunday School President" followed by uncomfortable laughter and then "at least we were married this time!" WOW
7. Heard an analogy about a devil and a duck--I'll have to explain that later?!!
8. Watched the STEELERS win the Super Bowl!
9. Listened to a sister tell about finding an incredible garage sale and that everything on her body--right down to the underoos--came from it. She gave directions, told everyone to bring cash, and that it was still open until 4 that afternoon (shopping encouraged in Relief Society on Sunday, but only at garage sales & with cash & only if it is a rockin' deal??)
10. So much more but I'm out of time. Welcome to Kingman everybody!

Haha - these are hilarious! And all on one day! :) I actually have many similar stories from our ward here in San Francisco. It's good to know there are other totally weird wards out there! Hehe! I want to see pictures of your new house!
Wow, that is so different I am sure compared to Vegas :)!!! Well, it sure makes for some good stories. Have fun and enjoy your new life!!
This is so funny. It's so weird and shocking to be in a completely different environment. Also, when people say that the church is the same no matter where you go, they certainly haven't been to Navarre, FL...or Kingman, AZ!! Good luck with everything.
Woah. That sounds like a good book- and you're living it! I'm also voting for pictures of the new house.
I seriously just peed my pants a little!! That was one of the funniest posts EVER!!!
Amazing. Thought of you guys when we watched the Super Bowl on Sunday. Missed Scott's bbq. Good luck getting settled!
i personally prefer led zeppelin on the organ for postlude, and hey, i don't know about you but to me any harry potter vs. voldemort related to God vs. Satan analogies are a welcome change from sports references- you may just get one of those from the purple sock lady! sounds like you're in for a lot of fun!! uncomfortable sexual references at church are always a plus as well. miss you guys!
