Movin', Movin', Movin'

Well....to make a long story short, we're moving. We're moving into a beautiful home (much larger...from about 1400 square feel to 2400 square feet) on Tapps Island. It's a beautiful, safe, kid-friendly community. We were renting our house in Puyallup and have decided to make this move...and we hope to be in this house for a very long time. It has a lovely fenced backyard (great for BBQ'ing, housewarming parties :), kids playing and our dog). We are excited and a little sad all at the same time. This new house will be a great new beginning for us (Jason's also starting a new job this week and the kids are starting full-time Montessori school starting next week).

I included a picture of the front of the house below. Our house is not on the lake, but it's accross the street, has a great view of the lake and of Mount Rainier. Once we get settled, we'd love to have our friends and family over to see our new home and celebrate with us. We'll be moving in officially on October 1, so there will be a lot of work to be done between now and then.

We've had a wonderful summer! Jason and I are both working on exercising more and eating more healthy. In about the past 5 months, Jason's lost 93 pounds (those of you who haven't seen him in a while won't even believe how wonderful he looks) and I've lost 23...it's a start. Trying to be better examples for our children so maybe, just maybe, they won't struggle with their weight like we have our whole lives. We've also been working on staying active...we go swimming at the YMCA at least 4 times per week, go for walks, take the kids to the park, etc.

Big things are happening for the Drury family. Keep us in your thoughts and prayers that this move goes smoothly, that Jason's new job works out well and that the kids thrive in their new school. As for me, I'm happy when my family's happy and I'm excited about this next chapter in our lives!

XOXO,

The Drurys
