Turkey Talk

Thanksgiving is one of those holidays that feels like a big hug—filled with food, family, and familiar traditions that bring everyone together. Whether you keep things simple or go all out, these Thanksgiving traditions are the heart of what makes the day special. 1. The Feast It wouldn’t be Thanksgiving without the food! Roast turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, green bean casserole, and pumpkin pie are the stars of the show. Everyone has their must-have dish, whether it’s grandma’s rolls, your aunt’s sweet potatoes, or a secret family recipe that’s been passed down for years. 2. The NFL Games Football and Thanksgiving go hand-in-hand. The NFL Thanksgiving Day games have been a tradition since 1934, and millions tune in every year to cheer on their favorite teams between helpings of mashed potatoes. Even if you’re not a die-hard fan, it’s hard to resist the excitement (and maybe a little friendly family rivalry). 3. The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade For many, the day officially starts with the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade . From giant balloons and marching bands to Broadway performances, it’s the perfect background soundtrack while the turkey cooks and the house fills with the smell of cinnamon and sage. 4. Gratitude Around the Table One of the most meaningful traditions is taking a moment to share what you’re thankful for. Whether it’s a quick round of gratitude before dinner or a heartfelt conversation that stretches long after dessert, it’s a reminder of what this holiday is really about. 5. The Post-Dinner Walk (or Nap!) Once the dishes are cleared, many families head outside for a refreshing walk—or crash on the couch for a well-deserved nap. Either way, it’s the perfect reset before diving into leftovers later that night. 6. Games, Movies, and Family Time From board games to holiday movies, the evening often turns into laughter-filled fun. Some families watch A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving or Planes, Trains, and Automobiles , while others start decorating for Christmas or pull out the matching PJs for a cozy night in. 7. Black Friday (and Now, Cyber Week) For those who love a good deal, the day after Thanksgiving has become its own kind of holiday. Whether you head out early for doorbusters or prefer to shop online in your pajamas, it’s the unofficial kickoff to the holiday shopping season. 8. Giving Back More and more families are turning Thanksgiving into a time to give back—volunteering at local shelters, donating meals, or supporting community food drives. It’s a beautiful way to celebrate gratitude in action. No matter which traditions you celebrate—football, feasting, or finding the perfect pie crust—Thanksgiving is all about connection. It’s a time to slow down, appreciate the people around you, and soak in the cozy start to the holiday season. 🦃 Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Eden Apartments! May your day be filled with warmth, laughter, and maybe just one more slice of pie.

60-Day vs 30-Day Notice: What You Need to Know

Packing boxes, booking the U-Haul, and figuring out how to fit all your stuff into one car—it’s a lot! So, here’s the big question: when do you actually need to let us know you’re moving out? First things first—if you’re thinking about renewing your lease, we’ll reach out about 90 days before your lease ends with your options. That way, you can plan ahead, lock in your spot, and avoid the last-minute scramble. If you’re planning to move out at the end of your lease, you’ll need to submit a 60-day written notice. That means your notice is due two full months before your lease ends, and it must be submitted on the 1st of the month. So if your lease ends February 29th, your notice would be due January 1st. You can grab a form in the office or submit it easily through your Resident Portal. Not quite ready to leave? That’s okay! If you’ve completed your initial lease term, you can switch to a month-to-month lease. Month-to-month gives you some flexibility, but a heads up—rent may change with the market, and there’s a $200 monthly fee for the perk of staying month-to-month. Month-to-month leases only need a 30-day notice, so if you plan to move out February 29th, just let us know by February 1st. Important: If we don’t hear from you at all before your lease ends, you will be automatically enrolled in the month-to-month lease. That way you still have a home, but you’ll want to keep the 30-day notice in mind if you plan to move. Don’t see the lease length you want? You can request a custom lease. This locks in your rent and gives you the exact move-out date you need. Unfurnished custom leases have a $200 monthly charge, and furnished ones are $100 extra per month. And yes, a 60-day notice is still required if you plan to move at the end of your custom lease. We know all of this can feel a little confusing, but don’t worry—we’ve got your back. If you have any questions, want to make a plan, or just want to talk through your options, stop by the leasing office. We love helping residents figure out what works best for them. ✨ Pro tip: Mark your calendar for the 1st of the month when your notice is due. It’s a simple step that makes moving out—or renewing—so much easier!

Eden’s Waitlist

At Eden Apartments, we are a community housing community, which means people are moving in and out all the time. Many of our future residents like to plan ahead, and our waitlist makes it easy to do just that. For example, let’s say you are hoping to move in April 2026. The first step is to explore your favorite floorplans on our website. On the photos and tour tab, you can even take a 3D tour of the apartment to get a real feel for the space. When you are ready, come visit us in person! We would love to show you the ins and outs of your future home. Eden’s waitlist works a little differently than other apartments in Rexburg. Instead of everyone waiting for one specific apartment to open up, we have several apartments become available each month. Our leases are flexible, and residents provide us with their 60-day notice when they are ready to move out. That is when we know exactly which apartments will be available. To join the waitlist, simply submit your application, pay the security deposit of $250, and the application fee of $40 per applicant over the age of 18. We will then add you to the waitlist for your preferred floorplan. As soon as a unit matching your preference becomes available, we will give you a call. You are also welcome to check in with us occasionally, but please keep in mind that we cannot guarantee availability, and typically we know about which apartments will open up about 60 days before your approximate move-in date. If you have any questions or want help getting on the waitlist, please call our leasing office. We are happy to walk you through the process and help you plan your move to Eden Apartments.
