We are MOVING!!!

So it's official, we are moving.  We had been thinking about West Virginia for a long time, and Karl had been searching for a job there.  Well, his performance review came up at work, and it turns out he's doing really well, but he mentioned to his boss that we were considering a move out of state.  His boss had mentioned a while back that he was considering expanding his business, and as it turns out, this was just the thing to get him going on that.  His boss contracts with a business called Red Hat, and they accepted his bid for Utah, Colorado, and Arizona, specifically Salt Lake, Denver, and Phoenix.  Well we've done Arizona, and didn't like the heat AT ALL, and I've never cared to move to Utah (no offense to my Utard relatives) so we've decided to move to Denver Colorado!  This is really good, because it means he's staying with the same company, we'll keep the same benefits, he'll continue to get certified in all his little certification thingies, and we'll be able to afford and HOUSE OF OUR OWN!  YAY!  We're going to have a real winter too, which I'm actually pretty excited about. 
I don't want to get into to much detail, but Ben misbehaved at school again and got suspended for two days, so that pretty much sucks.  We have a meeting with the principal tomorrow and it's going down!  I am so sick of that little hill billy school and their ineffective methods.  Ben's going to stay home with me until we move, but Joe's going to keep going, he's fitting in really well and making friends, which I realize is going to make moving harder, but we plan on settling where we land.  That's all for now!

Wow! Yay! That is so exciting! When do you officially move? Honestly, Utah isn't bad at all. Don't mock it til you try it! Haha. Everything has its pros and cons. But, Colorado is so exciting! I love places were you can really experience all four seasons. Are you going to be right in Denver? Do you know where you are looking at home wise? Sorry if I am bombarding you with too many questions! Seriously, so excited for you guys! Sorry to hear about Ben.

How exciting! I think it would be fun to live in a place with four seasons. I hear Colorado is beautiful! Good luck with the house hunt! --cheryl

Denver sounds great! It is on our short list of potential cities to move to in 2010...
