We moved to Washington

So for some time now Camille has been trying to get us to move to Washington. She has been lining up work for Barney and everything. She was diligent to the point we made the decision to do it. In late August of 2011 we made the move. Camille and Dan own the Duplex they live in so the other renter moved out, leaving it available for us. It is a two bedroom apartment. Quite a change for us form our two story house in Wellington but we are making t work for us. of course, we haven't moved everything up here. There just isn't room enough to hold it. We have gotten rid of alot but there is still much more stored in our garage in Wellington, for now. Barney had recently finished building (Camille and Dan and us) nice large storage sheds in the back yard. That has helped alot. Mostly he needs a good place for tools and a place to build stuff since he doesn't have a garage here. It has been great being next door to Camille's family. We are having alot of fun with the grandkids.
In Nov. we went back to Utah to do some work, handle some things with our renters and mostly to spend time having Barney work on the basement of a new house his sister Nancy recently bought (the house is not new. Just new to her.) We spent a month there. We returned home to Washington just before Christmas. We will actually be going back again at the end of Feb. for another month to finish up at Nancy's house so she can get it ready to start renting soon.
Since we moved here, I got called to teach early morning Seminary (again,like when we were in San Diego). I love it. Barney got called to be Cub Master. He is enjoying it. We love our new Ward. Friendly people here in Yakima, Washington.
Our kids and their families are doing well. Tamara has three kids. They are in the San Diego area, still. Brian is married, no kids, in the Navy again and in Honolulu, Hawaii. Camille here, three kids. they may be buying a house soon for us all to move into. Something that has something similar to a mother-in-law suite. Nice. Jennifer and Chad, no kids, are still in the Provo area. they are looking for house to buy soon. Amie has three kids now. they just built a new house in Helena Montana. Matt is on the SWAT team now there in Helena. He loves it. all are doing well.
