Thank you to all those you have called or emailed about how we are doing. Just a quick update- no pictures. WE MADE IT TO MA! We got here last Thursday night after a very smooth (as smooth as 4 days in the car with 4 children can be) across the country. We got in to our house Friday morning, but our landlord had not finished clearing out the basement or garage yet. So he worked in the basement most of the day while we moved the things we had with us in. Adam was able to help our landlord take his things to his new house once we had emptied out the U-haul. We bought paint Friday night and then spent all of Saturday painting. Master bedroom, dining room, front room, and breakfast area all painted- still to go, kitchen, master bath- well at least those are the two must dos! Church on Sunday started at 9 and it took us about 20 minutes to get there. A family in the ward was kind enough to invite us over for dinner and it was great to get to know them. Monday, the kids started school and all had a GREAT first day. Our truck was delivered and with the help of two guys we had hired, we got the truck completely unloaded!!! Now I am swimming in boxes and doing my best to get them unpacked, while getting kids to and from school, homework,laundry, meals! Adam started back to work today and the kids school was cancelled because of a snow/freezing ice storm. We are praying that the power stays on! They had a similar storm before Christmas and the power was out in our area for 5 days!! I will send out our new info via email. Pictures to come~
By the way- I REALLY like it here! I think our house will be great once we can get everything arranged and updated! The neighborhood is great, the schools are great, and we all feel very peaceful and comfortable. I think our kids will grow up here.

It seems like you getting things done like always. I hope the power stays on too, that is just way too cold to not have power. We think of you everyday and missing all of you.
Hey Tynel-- Glad to hear all is going as hoped. I have been contemplating our conversation that one afternoon a lot--you know, the one about God' plan for each of us...and how our lives change unexpectedly. And I look to you guys as such a great example of someone who follows the spirit...and is so blessed for it. I have to say the ward is just not the same without the Jarno fam=)
...um...and please say you have a fireplace=))
take care!!!
Yeah! I am glad you guys made it safe and are doing well - albeit very busy. Hope everything continues to go smoothly...including the weather/power situation! I am excited to see pics of your new place!
I wish I could help you unpack! Wow, what a big move! I'm so glad that you love it there, but we miss you here!
I am so glad you guys are getting settled. We miss you!
oh, i'm so glad that you made it safely and that you are already feeling at home and liking the area. i'm impressed with how much painting you've already done!
I'm glad you guys made it there. Good luck with all the work. Hope your kids are still loving the snow.
I'm glad to hear you're doing so good. Good luck with the painting. Take some before and after pictures for us. I'm glad the kids are liking their school. That is so important! Miss ya!!
