DERNIT ALL...

.
.

.... Our friends keep moving. First all my old roommates, then the Johnsons, then the Blevins, then the Hayashis, and now the Grimmers. They were some of our bestest buds ever.
.
.
First, they decided to move out of our ward. This did not make us happy, but we could handle it, because it was only on the other side of town. And they were buying a house which was good news: the Grimmers would be sticking around for a LONG time. Or so we thought. Then, the little stinkers up and decide to move again to Washington of all places...way too far for a a Friday night movie date. This is unacceptable.
.

So what if you're going to be close to family? So what if Jared got this amazing teaching job that includes the head boys basketball coaching position at his old high school? So what if this is the opportunity of a lifetime? What about US?
.
.
Okay, fine. I'll stop throwing my tantrum now. We really are happy for those guys. Really.
.
.
I think.
.
.
.

We'll just miss seeing them any 'ol time we want to: exercising, taking the dogs out, playing tennis, watching The Superbowl, cooking tin foil dinners...

.

.

playing board games, watching movies, decorating gingerbread houses, babysitting their little ones...

.

.

It's all very sad. Here we are saying goodbye to Marley and Ashlyn. We wanted to keep the kids...but Jared and Amanda said no.

It's not like they couldn't come visit them once in awhile.

.

.

Good luck you meanie head stinkin' Grimmers you! We love ya, anyway.

.

Love,

your abandoned pals

Hey Rachel...was it Steve Reid? She was at our house, saw a wedding announcement for his bro (John) and said "hey, I dated his brother!" Small world, huh? I guess Andrew grew up with them in WA.
