Move to Utah

After some deliberation, we've decided it's time for us to move to Utah. There's a program that Mark will like up there that starts in late June. We think it would be smarter to get up there sooner rather than later for a few reasons. There's a house up there that's currently empty (the same one we lived in before) and if we wait too much longer there might be competition to get into it; jobs in the beginning of summer are easier to come by sooner rather than later in college towns; we'd rather be settled when school starts and not still moving in. Mark is also really not fond of his current job and is excited to be done as soon as possible and on to other things - whatever they may be.
Well, for better or worse, we've heading up there. The in-laws volunteered to come down and help us get cars/kids up to Utah. They flew down and then are driving our car and the two big kids up and keeping them for a week while we finish packing and follow next week. My mom will help us drive the truck and we'll take our second car with the baby. Hopefully we'll get all this done and finished!

It was a bit depressing how excited the kids were to leave... I have to tell myself that they didn't realize that we weren't following for a whole week. We tried to tell them, and they just seemed more excited to go see Ethan than they were sad to see us stay... I might get over it one day :)
