This is the Columbia River Temple. It is here in the Tri-Cities and where Nolan and I got married.Saturday June 12th was the big and final move! It took many good guys to help us pack our final truck. We got almost all of it in, but not quite all of it. People kept commenting on how big our house was once it was empty. haha.
I spent a few days with my parents until Lexa's dance recital. She had a ballet dance and a jazz dance. She did great and it is always fun to watch.Then I spent a few days with the Murdocks in Utah. We had a fun day. Ily came up with a simple scavenger hunt for the kids. We spent the day going to different parks and looking for the items. It was so fun and the kids loved it. They got ice cream cones as their reward. After a good rest, we drove the rest of the way to Washington. Was a pretty uneventful drive, except for the rest stop with dozens of dead birds on the ground! it was gross. We are here and loving it. Marilyn is such a busy and active person. She is getting ready for a wedding reception on July 10th in her backyard. We have been busy doing yard work, planting flowers, etc. The last few days I spent painting the front doors. Marilyn has been on top of the gazebo cleaning the roof! I can barely keep up with her. Clara loves the big house and being with grandma and grandpa. Lexa loves having her friend Katie across the street. Everyone is so welcoming and glad Nolan and his family are back. Tuesday we spent the evening at the country club pool and had dinner there for grandpa's birthday. It was a fun day!
