We're moving again....

So, I'm not really sure why we're so hesitant to tell everyone. It was kind of a last minute decision. In fact just last week we were telling Jackie that "no, we're not moving any time soon....it will be a while!" But I guess we were wrong. We gave our 30 days notice to our Landlord this week. This is becoming kind of a trademark of our's. We will be moving to my Dad's house in the middle of January. He's so awesome to let us live there. We are hoping to be able to get into a house sooner this way. It's not exactly how we planned things, so I think that's why it's a difficult thing for me to sit and talk about. I hate dragging the girls out of school (and Brad out of Joyschool for that matter) and into different primary classes. I know that they'll do fine eventually, I just feel bad having to do it to them again. They both love their teachers SO MUCH! And I hate leaving a ward that we are finally starting to feel like we know people and are a part of. I'm just way too sentimental for all this moving. At least this time we can just pack up, move and unpack. It's not a bunch of getting rid of and selling all of our belongings, trying to figure out what will fit and what will weigh too much, and at least this time we can enjoy Christmas and THEN pack it all up and move rather than trying to do both at the same time..... it'll be much easier! It really is going to be a blessing, so I need to focus on the positive. Anyway- it's not just a rumor- we really are moving- as crazy as that is.

Well, crappy having to move but cool, I'm in Bountiful often, we can hang out:) And your kids will double the primary and nursery in the Ward Canyon Ward (really Kahner made three in the nursery when we were living at my parents house... they have some cool toys in there too!)Good luck with the move.

Shannon- yeah, it's mostly to save up for a house. But partly because we're just broke. Things have been tighter than tight ever since Nate went to Oklahoma, that cost a lot more than we had planned on. But this way we get out before we're too far under. Plus Obama promised the Controllers their pay back which means a pretty decent raise for Nate, so that is something we are hoping for. We just don't know when. We don't know where we want to live when we do finally buy a house. We'll just have to see how it goes I guess :) Thanks for asking htough :)
Ashleigh- that's cool, I didn't realize there were so few kids- when we lived there before it seemed like there were a lot.
Thank you Sherry, Becky and Chelsea-- is your house free?? That would be a nice price :)

That's not any closer to me!! I think we might have to move because we are pretty broke too--but we have a house and nobody is buying houses. So who knows. I will miss ya but will have to visit when we can.

I had hopes of you buying my house. I'll give you a better deal than Chelsea too, but don't tell her. HeeHee

Seriously though, I'm going to miss you! I'm going to miss your kids in Primary too. At least we still have our blogs though, right?
