Well it's happened- Tyler has a job offer from Idaho Falls and we've accepted! His current job was basically ruining our lives with negativity and stress. It was a "good job" with a great big company that would have been a life-long career had things worked out differently. As things are though, we are not willing to sacrifice happiness for some fancy-schmancy career. Even with our so far limited experience in the new company we can tell already it is 1000x more positive and uplifting. This will be a good thing for our family.
That doesn't mean I'm exactly happy to leave though...we have formed life-long friendships here in Utah that can never be replaced or re-created. I will miss my beautiful house and the good neighbors and of course my family. The good news is we are only 3 hours away- and only 2 hours from fun places like Yellow Stone and Jackson Hole. There's also great outdoor things to do close to IF--so everyone should come see us lots! :)
We only had 3 weeks between the offer and his start date- so right now I'm kind of frantically figuring out new schools, Dr.'s, soccer and a new job. Oh yeah and we found a cute house to rent in a fantastic neighborhood with one of the best schools- so that at least is done! Our current house will go on the market as soon as we vacate next weekend- so stay tuned for links and pics. If you know of anyone looking to buy in the Layton/Clearfield area we've got a steal of a deal for ya! PLEASE pray for us to sell quickly and pass it on to your friends/family.

What big news! Im happy for you guys though sad its not closer to us ;) We'll pray for your home to sell and Im sure you'll love Idaho!
Good luck! I am so excited for you. Keep us all posted on your blog (I tried FB-I really did-it's just not for me right now). I look forward to hearing all about the new neighborhood, house, schools, everything! Who would have thought a year ago that you'd be living in Idaho and I'd be in Sandy? Both are places we didn't expect to be:) But both will be great!
