Moving

We have been torn the past few days. A friend of mine from Spanish Fork called us a couple weeks ago and told us about a job opportunity in Spanish Fork. We decided to apply for it, but didn't really think anything would come of it. They called us to come in for an interview one week ago, a second interview on Friday, and then yesterday, offered us the job! We had prayed and pondered whether it would be a good thing for our family, and we decided to accept it. We will have to move back to Spanish Fork because the job provides a house for us to live in. We have had a hard time celebrating because we really love the place that we are in right now. Our really good friends live upstairs and they are just now coming back from working all summer. We had really been looking forward to their return and now we are going to be starting our new job in ONE WEEK! I have really actually been pretty stressed upon hearing the news that we got the job. Happy and excited, but stressed. I know that it is the right thing to do, but sometimes the right thing is a very difficult thing....and so we are packing up our home once again. I am sad to leave this ward just as I was finally getting to know people. This is seriously THE STORY OF MY LIFE.... Welcome to it Chris (he lived in ONE home up until his mission!...Then he met me..... haha). Wish us luck as we pack up, move in, and start the job all in this upcoming week! I feel pretty overwhelmed. It's all just happened so fast, I wasn't quite prepared for it. I have come to understand the term, "It's bitter sweet" all too well.

As a graduate of Spanish Fork High I think moving to Spanish Fork is a going to be a great experience. Congratulations on the job. I enjoy catching up on your cute little family every now and then off of Kari's blog. Good luck with the move.
