We Moved!

As many of you know we have been looking at the possibility of moving for months now. We had the opportunity to expand our business by buying a failing Papa John's market in the Spokane, WA area. Let me just tell you, the last couple months have felt like a roller coaster, the deal has been uncertain, to certain, to having fallen through, then back on and when it was finally 100% for sure we had 2 days to finish packing and get on the road!

Well we have been here for a couple weeks now and are finally feeling settled in. We ended up moving to Richland, WA which is in the tri-cities (about 2 hours SW of Spokane). We have already got one of the stores back up and running (they all closed during the buying process) and the 2nd one in tri-cities will be open this week. From there we will begin re-opening 3 stores in the Spokane area which will be managed by one of our former managers from Boise.

The first week we were here we were able to stay with Kent and Ann (my mom's uncle and aunt) while we looked for a home. We found a really nice condo right off the river to rent and really like the area, we were blessed to find a family to rent our home in Boise to last minute; they came and looked at it the day we were moving! We had previously found renters, but had told them nevermind when we thought the deal was off, so we were really excited to be able to get it figured out still before we left and we like these renters better anyway :)

All in all we are happy to be here and look forward to what lies ahead, Preston has been nonstop working to get the stores re-opened since the day we got here and the girls have transitioned really well. Thanks so much to my dad who came and helped us load up the truck and drive here, unload into a storage unit, load back up and unload into our new home, then unpack. We couldn't have done it without him and we loved having him here for over a week! The girls became especially attached and we were sad to see him go, but appreciate all he did, thanks Dad!
