Jerry and Marylyn News

Hello Murray Family!I guess everyone is tired of sending in news to Allison for the Murray Newsletter Blog, since the only ones we hear from, lately anyway, is Uncle Neil, and our family. Maybe we should do this just "whenever" someone has some news they want to share with the family (just my suggestion) and then we won't feel under any pressure. It's been fun though, Allison, and thank you very much for your awesome efforts. And, a big thank you to Neil for giving us such fun and interesting things to read and figure out!September in Utah was fun and October in Utah looks very promising. We have taken some beautiful canyon drives to see the Fall colors. This is a beautiful place to live in the Autumn! We will be going back to Petaluma the end of October, but we have enjoyed our visit with Dewey and Beverly, visiting with Neil and look forward to LaVora's visit for a week on the 15th. Jerry is busily engaged in our basement putting up the molding and door trims. We are doing the temple work for a Murray family from Ireland. We don't think they are related to us, but a friend did the research and asked us if we wanted to do their temple work. Neil and Jerry put a lot of work into a rental agreement for the Myton house and then sent it to our possible renter. We haven't heard back from him, so maybe the terms were too tough. Those boys are pretty rigid about how they want their old home treated! Maybe we will be on the lookout for a new renter.News flash from our family: Lyle and Jean are buying a fixer-upper house in Suisun, CA - about an hour from Petaluma. We sure will miss having them just across town, but it is a good thing that they will be putting money into a home of their own instead of down a black hole. Their Michael turned 7years old and Andrew turned 1 yr. in September. Have I ever told you how cute our six grandchildren are?!?!Jerry and I are getting together with the senior couple missionaries we worked with in the MTC International Office. I went to lunch the other day with four of the sisters and we had so much fun catching up. Jerry and I hope to attend a session in the Draper and the Oqquirh Temples before we go back to Petaluma.Well...that's about it for this month. We hope you are all healthy, happy and busily engaged in worthwhile things. Happy General Conference weekend!With love,Marylyn (and Jerry)
