This is a newsletter that we e-mail out to our past clients on a monthly basis.  I'd be interested in hearing what others are doing with e-news or postcards.

Team Talk

Can you believe that we are already over a month into the new year? It's amazing where the time goes.

The new year brings new changes at the Johnson Team. We are happy to announce the addition of Lenea Booher, as courier and administrative assistant to the team. Lenea is a Sehome High School and Whatcom Community College student. She is in the office twice weekly and handles the task of keep all our listings stocked with the latest flyers and marketing materials, as well as reception work around the office. She is a great addition to the team and we are happy to have her!

Mike and Kim are enjoying being the parents of a 3-year-old and all that it brings.  Lauren's preschool activities keep everyone on their toes. Mike is anxious for the weather to get calm and get out on his boat. The new boat this year means that Kim and Lauren are much more likely to come along on trips as the new cabin is quite "plush." Mike did get to slip away and attend the annual Roche Harbor Fishing Derby, which he looks forward to every year!

Graham has been having a lovely winter with all kinds of new things going on in his life. The biggest event is the addition to his household: Mia, his new dog. She is a husky/shepherd mix and so loving and kind. Graham has also decided to put his condo on the market with the intent of moving into a small home in Bellingham.  Something with a yard for his new best friend! 

            Fawn's getting pretty anxious since the end of the month brings the start of the World of Outlaws Sprint Car season and an end to the raceless winter. She was been busy the past month with all kinds of activities, including snow tubing up at Cypress Mountain in British Columbia and attending the monster truck races in Tacoma. She and Austin have also attended some indoor rodeos -- another of her favorite past times!

Nickie and Phil have been busy in the new year. They are looking at soon moving out of Sumas and into Bellingham. With Nickie now attending school at both Skagit Valley College and Whatcom Community College, the thought of a shorter commute just sounds great! School and homework have kept Nickie very busy this month. She finds herself really looking forward to the weekends when she is actually able to see her husband Phil and enjoy a little down time around the house.

Rich and Lylene have been staying busy as always. Lylene has really been enjoying being able to spend time with Graham and her new "grand puppy" as she likes to call Mia. Without a dog around their house, both she and Rich enjoy having one around from time to time. Rich has been working on his routine for his summer dance recital and wants to let everyone know to get their tickets early, as it will be a premier event. Rich also got a new car during the past month: a Jaguar, quite the upgrade from his Dodge pickup. Believe me, we get to hear about it. You will have to give him a wave if he passes you on the road.

Well, that's our month review.  Happy Valentine's Day!
