Moving to Colorado!!

Well by now you know that we are moving to Denver! This is a move that we have been open to if the right situation presented itself, and it did. Marty's company offered him a position out west and he really wants to go for it. As much as I'll miss those who I've grown close to in Liberty Township, this is not where my roots are, so it's not too hard for me. The kids are taking it well, Emma is sad to leave her best friends but she is excited for our new adventures. She has always made friends easily and I know she will be fine.

I've talked to people at some schools and we have decided to move to the suburb of Parker. I'm really excited to have found schools that are much like the one we are leaving, good schools are so important to me.

Beyond that, we have a lot of things to do with preparing for the move. Our home sold in under a week and while we are extremely grateful, we weren't prepared for it to happen so fast! We have to be out of here by June 25... Eeek!

Updates on the kids: LM is out of preschool...I can't believe our little man will be a big, bad kindergartener soon! He joined karate like EB, and he LOVES it. He had a brief, muddy spring soccer season and had fun. He really likes soccer and will probably continue in it for the next few years at least, I imagine. EB has a week left of school. She has mixed feelings, eager for summer and sad about it being the last days with her friends at Van Gorden. She is going strong in karate and was preparing to join the competition team for the dojo...she is sad about leaving that opportunity, but we know we'll get them into karate as soon as we get settled in Denver.

And I will be sure to post tons of pics!!!
