I find myself talking about Boise a lot. I talk about the things I loved there that made it such a great place to live and I talk about the reasons why I miss it.
I'm sure it gets very annoying.
But I really loved Boise.
Really, really loved it.
So in order to put myself in a more positive frame of mind, I'm going to list some reasons why I like Idaho Falls. I really like lists and so maybe if I make a list about Idaho Falls, the two likes will merge and I will magically love it here!
Did that make sense?
No?
It didn't make to sense to me either so lets just commence with the list.
1. I love the location of where I live. I'm only one minute from Cafe Rio and shopping....for whenever I start shopping again.
2. The people seem to be a little more carefree. Moms will actually go to the store with no makeup on or maybe with a ponytail. (I've come a long way from when we lived in Pocatello and I cried after my first trip to Wal-Mart).
3. People use the word "ain't" more often than I'm used to. I like it. It reminds me of cows and horses.
4. The cold weather gives me an excuse to get cozy in Trevor's sweatshirts and flannel jacket.
5. I love my ward.
6. We are a lot closer to Salt Lake and St. George. One day, we'll come visit you all!
7. We have a DownEast Home here. Back to the shopping thing again. Once I start doing that, I'll like it even more.
8. Trevor likes his job a lot more now. Besides a few stresses, he's much happier in his job now than he ever was as a Sales Rep.
9. I can see mountains from my house (not as big as the ones in Boise but it's number 9 and I'm kind of stretching here....)
10. We have free cable so I can watch Conan at 9:00 if I want to. I love Conan but I won't pay to watch him. It'd just feel wrong.
11. And last but not least... more time to have fun.

(notice the flannel)
Good night Idaho Falls....

Okay, so that was totally selfish of me to want that on your list, but we LOVE being near y'all!!
