oh yeah...

So,

did I forget to mention that...

WE ARE MOVING TO PORTLAND!

If you've been wondering where in the world I have been and what could possibly be talking to time away from my blog...well.  There ya go.

We got the official word on Monday that as of the middle of September, Jon will be working at a new job. 

Well, same company

different department.

Even though Jon doesn't start till mid September, we will be moving down there the last week of August.

At that time we will be houseless here in the tulip valley and (hopefully) moving into our new place somewhere in/around Portland.

Thats t-minus 4 1/2 weeks people.

You know the things I have to do...!?!?!

Lucky for us, we have moved every single year to a new house, so we are old pros at packing.  That's the least of our worries.

Its the finding a place to move into thats affordable but fits our needs.

Ya...that.

So these days, my computer time has changed from blogging to craigslisting.

Our family dinners have turned into "whats next" talks.

Life has gone from 0 to 60 and it ain't slowing down any time soon.

Your prayers are once again welcomed.

Prayer for guidance to the right house

and a not so stressful move.

Prayer for the hurt of leaving friends behind

but rejoicing in the friends we are going to.

Prayer for getting to know new jobs, new places and new people...

and that, over all, we would not stress and trust God would put us where He wants us.

We thank you for the prayers you have prayed for us already...
even if you didn't really know what you were praying about.

This was it, people,

this was it.

So...

if I'm not updating my blog a lot in the next few weeks...

or if you wonder if I have fallen off the face of the earth.

well no...

we are just moving across it.

xoxo
