We are moving
And, you thought my surprise was something different, and least some of you did. That won't be a surprise to me when I tell everyone about it... This was a complete suprirse. Most of you know that we move a lot. In the 3.5 years since my hubby and I have been married we have moved 3 times. I've accepted moving as part of my life, my husband's job requires it. The knowledge doesn't make it any easier. We thought for sure we would be in New Mexico until March or April. Well, this week is busy, crazy week for my husband, because they have state inspections for the main part of the job tomorrow, and he's been pulling 15-16 hour days at work. Well, Monday he tells me that the Operations Manager from Nashville was coming on Tuesday (yesterday). The operations manager is in charge of where people go, who is fired, who receives raises, and promotions, making sure the job goes smoothly, for the people where were hired out of the Nashville Office. Anyhow, I thought he was coming to see how the job is going. But, yesterday when I called Scott to ask him something, he told me that he was pulled aside by the OM and told that there are going to be some changes, and they needed Scott to move and take our family to a place called Valparaiso, IN. He needs us to move at the end of the year, the last week of this month. Wow. What a surprise. This is something we were not expecting at all, at least not for another few months. So, we are moving...soon. I still can't really wrap my head around it, and I am not sure how I feel about it yet. New Mexico will not be hard to leave, but all of the friends that we've made will be REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY hard to leave. But, so life goes. If there is soemthing that I have learned in life is that change is good, even though we may not welcome it, its good. People come into your life for a reason, and people go out of your life for a reason. I fully believe that there is a reason we are moving now instead of later. I just don't know what it is, and I am not sure I excited about it. I'm not looking forward to living in snow again. I am not looking forward to the super cold weather. I am not looking forward to driving in the midwest in the dead of winter. But, I am excited to be close to Chicago, to be close to some church history sites, the great lakes, Detroit, and Canada. So, anyway, this is the surprise.

but you are right things happen for a reason.
But I am really glad i got to know you guys. You are awesome!
I guess this is a good excuse to get together more often before you go.
I am sad that you lived so "close" for a little while and we still didn't get to see you (I thought you would be there longer too!) Love you and good luck!!
