Well, thanks to the help from many friends, we were able to pack up and leave really quickly! The Relief Society sisters and my long time friend, Jennifer, all spent an entire morning cleaning every inch of my house. It was amazing to accomplish what it would have taken me all day, in just a couple of hours! We really appreciate the service given by so many, so willingly! Then we had the Elder's Quorum and the Young Men helping load the truck. (We probably should have gotten a bigger one) It was packed superfast with all of the men that were there helping!
We spent the rest of our day with my Brother and his family. We will miss them so much! I hope our little Madee doesn't forget us!
Saturday morning we piled into the car, took the rest of the trash to the dumpster, and headed away. We were teary eyed as we said goodbye to a home that was so good to us! We loved being in a house finally! We loved having grass and wonderful neighbors! We made great friends in the 8 months we lived in that house! Of course we weren't really excited for the 30 hour drive we had ahead of us...
These are pictures we took in Ely, Nevada. We stopped at a park to eat lunch and let the kids play. They were running all over like crazy and screaming at the tops of their lungs. This was a much needed stop!

I still can't believe you guys live in Washington! Gaged asked about his friend Liz the other day and I almost started crying when I explained that she has moved away for her Daddy's job, you guys will definitely be missed but I am so excited for you at the same time!
I loved the pic of your family in front of your Old Home.
Wow that was fast. Hope you had a great trip. Good luck up there.
