Big News!

Ever since Derek and I were first married we have wanted to move. Just to have the experience of living on our own. Derek has always wanted to move to Seattle. He served his mission there and has always loved it. We've had some changes come up lately and had to make some tough decisions. The last week we've talked a lot about what we were going to do. And last Thursday we decided it was time to move. We didn't want to tell anyone until we were sure that's what we wanted to do, but yesterday we heard back from the place we wanted to rent from and it's a go! We're so excited! Here's the link to where we're going to live if you want to take a look: Our New Home It's in a little town named Stanwood and he knows a few people there from his mission.

The kids and I won't be leaving until the end of May, when they get out of school, but Derek will be leaving in two weeks. The people that offered him his new job, he'll be cooking for a restaurant in Bellevue, said that they'd keep it for him until then.

We're so excited to start out on our new journey! Wish us luck!

  5. Your moving?? We were just getting to know you! And so far away!! I am sad...but also way happy for you!! It is exciting to move to a new place. We've thought about moving up in that area, it would be a neat experience. But it won't happen for us for several years.
    Good luck!! We will miss you!

    PS if this is an April Fools joke then, ha ha!! At least you know that there are alot of people will miss you if you do happen to move away.:)

  6. WOW!! That's great! I don't love doing new things but when you know it's you time... then what do you do? We started this new journey by moving back up here and we'll be going to Alaska during the summers. I can honestly say that I am excited! I am super excited for you too! We will have to get together before you go! Maybe the kids and I can come down for a visit. Sterling leaves the end of this month until June when I will take the kids up there. We'll all have to take a drive down to disneyland with out the dads!

  7. So..... I totally bought into this. Are you really moving and the April 1st is just a coincidence? We have had the same thought for real. It would be a great opportunity.
