We are now the Idaho Pearces!  Greg got a job with AMET as a mechanical design engineer.  The company makes automated welding systems.  We are SO grateful for the wonderful job Greg has with great pay and benefits!  Heavenly Father always has a plan for us it just takes some faith and patience that he knows us and our needs.  We have a always like the Idaho Falls area and have now ended up here!  Rexburg is certainly an interesting town with it mostly existing because of BYU Idaho.  I have seen quite a few Aggie shirts though so maybe Rexburg won't be so bad after all ;).  With some more help from Heavenly Father we found a place that lets us have Cyris.  Greg and I spent 2 whole days looking online for places to rent.  There were two places that would let us have pets, a 700 square foot apartment and a 2000 square foot house.  I don't even know how I found the link to the house because I could not find it again later but we ended up getting it!  It is a cute house with 4 bedrooms and a huge fenced yard.  With the extra bedrooms we have a guest room and an office.  The yard has the potential for greatness if only Cyris would go out there by himself without crying, sheesh!  The only thing we don't like about the house is that is has all wood floors that are very old making them hard to clean.  My OCD has been on overdrive about no body being able to walk around without socks or shoes on.  We did find a great price on some carpets so the main living areas have carpet now and I finally found a hardwood floor moping solution that seems to be picking up some dirt!  Once I find the camera I will take pictures of the house.  I am loving being at home with Emmett and Cyris.  I already have a nice little routine down.  Another amazing blessing from Heavenly Father is that I have a part time job!  At the beginning of May I had an interview with Golder in Tucson.  It would have been a wonderful job and I thought Tucson and the desert were amazing but Greg and I wanted him to work and me to stay at home.  I was offered the position and we accepted that maybe for now Heavenly Father needed us to keep our reversed roles.  2 days later Greg was offered the position here is Rexburg (YAY!!!) and when I called to turn down the position they offered for me to work part time from home doing groundwater modeling!!  I start on the 18th and with the amazing pay they are giving we plan to save it all and buy a house next year!  Picture to come of our new lives in the next post.

Hi,

My family is moving to Rexburg in January. I googled Rexburg, mechanical design engineer, byu-i and family and found your blog.

We have never set foot in Rexburg, or Idaho for that matter, and I am anxious and not sure what to expect. Have you found you like it there?
