Our Move to Vancouver Washington

So we made it to our new home in Vancouver Washington on Friday! We are enjoying ourselves so far. It took us around 18 hours to drive here from St George. We packed up the moving truck on Wenesday and headed to Lehi were we stayed the first night. I had a chance to visit my sister in Salt Lake for and hour or so. It was so nice to see her again and my cute little niece we are going to miss them so much. Thanks everyone who helped make our packing a trip easier. My mom helped all day wenesday clean and pack all the little stuff. Chris and Brad loaded the truck almost all by themselves. Thanks to Dan and Suzanne who also came over and helped. It was so wonderful to have to much help. It was really hard to say good bye to my Mom. I am going to miss her so much. I am going to miss all my family and friends in St George and in Utah. I know that we are suppose to be here in Vancouver at this time in our lives. When we arrived in Vancouver on Friday with in a half and hour we had 5 elders from our ward here to help us. I am so grateful for the church and all the help and service that goes on. We settled quickly and Brads family came up to see us on Saturday we had a great time with them. Brads mom is so excited that we are so much closer now. We are about 4 1/2 hours from them. Sunday we went to church and had a good time. It is so different going to a regular ward. Our ward in St George is a lot different then here but, I think it will be a good thing. After church we watched the Superbowl. Thanks Mom and Dad for visiting. I can wait for my parents and family to come see our new home. Life is good and I am looking forward to this new chapter in our lives. We love and miss you all. But one day we all will be together one day and it will be wonderful. Sorry for the long post but, just wanted to let you all know what we have been up to.. I promise to post more and I will have pictures on my blog soon...
