Hey Baby Let's Go To Vegas!!!!

We are moving. again. seriously. i am not even kidding.

This might get confusing, so gear up. Jeremy's boss is a distributor for a surgical device company and his area included Utah, Nevada, Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico. As of January 1st his boss is no longer the distributor for Arizona and New Mexico, so we just assumed that Jeremy would be working for someone new come the beginning of the year, no big deal. Well.....the new distributor had already hired 2 sales reps from another company to work Jer's area and basically told Jeremy that he didn't have a position for him. Thankfully Jeremy's "old" boss called and asked him if he would consider being the rep in Las Vegas - and we, of course, said YES!!!! We are excited - Jer's brother and his family live in Vegas, I have a cousin that lives there and I have a lot of family in St. George.......which of course are great perks. There is a lot of potential in the Las Vegas area for Jeremy and that is very exciting. This was completely unexpected - as was our move from Idaho to Arizona 8 months ago - but we are rolling with the punches and trusting our Heavenly Fathers plan for us, because so far we have had an absolutely blessed life. "Our future is only as bright as our faith."

I am a little apprehensive about moving for selfish reasons - my weight loss journey, I'm really going to miss the YMCA here, it has been such an important part of finding myself again. But Melinda informed me this afternoon that there is and awesome gym in Vegas that has the same stuff as the Y only bigger, better and cheaper - wahoo! And we worry about the twins having to go to a new school and leaving their wonderful teachers and friends here, but they will bounce back - they are very excited about being so close to Brady and Zach. That's all I've got for right now - more updates to follow!

Good luck with the move (and everything else)!

Maybe you already know this, but last weekend I went to Nina and Larry's endowment and sealing in the Abq temple, and it was seriously the most amazing day. Just thought you'd like to know.

Yeah! We pass through Vegas like once ever 10 years. Now we'll be able to see you more often. Congratulations! Wish I were there to watch the girls while you packed.

We still miss you guys.

We miss you guys too. Hope the move goes well. And your girls will do just fine wherever you go. They are so cute and sweet and outgoing. Funny how things just have a way of working out. Good luck with everything!
