Wow, it's been awhile...

I haven't blogged since November, and a LOT has happened since then. Scott went to MI for Thanksgiving and enjoyed a couple of weeks with his parents and all three kids. We had a nice Christmas in Spokane with Cadence, Bethany, and their grandparents on their mother's side. It didn't go quite as planned because the overdose of snow caused the girls' plane to get redirected to Spokane rather than Seattle, so our drive over the pass got bumped up a few days and took nearly 8 hours rather than the usual 5 - but we still ended up having fun. It was a blessing to have the girls for the the holiday.

Then January rolled around and we got the news of Scott's new job - in Ohio. I took him to the airport Sunday to fly in and start in the new position on Monday. I'll be going there in February for a couple of days to help look for our new residence, but I won't be moving permanently in June. It will be an interesting couple of months - seeing how it affects each of us individually and also how it affects our relationship. It is my hope that we all come out on the other side of it for the better. It was my choice to remain out here until June, and Scott is less than thrilled about it (to say the least) but it will make the transition easier for me. I look back on how stressful it was to move out here with only three weeks notice, and I do not want to repeat that fiasco. I was not a happy camper and the stress of the move (and all fo the things that went wrong) made it harder than was necessary to adjust to a new environment.

So, that pretty much brings things up to date - the extremely condensed version.
