I think this is just the easiest way to tell all the people we love that we are moving to Phoenix, Arizona! Kent's company is relocating us and we will move as soon as our house sells here in Gig Harbor.
We have a lot of thoughts about this move. Most of them are positive. Some are not, but isn't that just how it happens in life most of the time? We will miss the incredible beauty here in Washington, especially the summers. We will also miss the friends we have made here. Our hope is that they will travel south during the dreary winter, stay with us, and enjoy the warmth and sunshine!
Want to know the positives? I knew you would say yes! By the way, these are in no particular order of importance...

Sunshine
Warmth
Having a swimming pool again.
Only 5 hours from my family in San Diego
AND...
AND...
The Beach!
Only 1,000 miles from our Texas family and friends instead of 2,200 miles! Whew!
3 hours closer to Ryan and Sarah!
We will be closer to The Taylor Family than we have been in about 20 years. Just 4 short hours away in Las Vegas.
Troy will have swim practice outdoors...
all year long.
all year long.
The brand new Phoenix temple will only be 10-15 minutes from where we are looking at buying a house. Our family will also get to participate in the open house and dedication in the spring of 2014. What a wonderful blessing!
The Texas Rangers hold their spring training near Phoenix every year! Oh yeah!
