Little Update

So it's been a couple of weeks and more has happened then I can probably remember at this hour. Shortly after my last post my former boss offered me my old, old job back and I was very excited to accept. I have been very ready for a change and back to work sounded perfect. The kids and I went and looked at a couple of day care options and settled on the YWCA. The one in town here has great accreditation's and wonderful programs so I was excited about that choice. Mark was going to finish his master's and we were starting to think about building a new house in the spring and were really settling into staying in town for awhile, but then..... This last Sunday Mark got offered a job back in MI. We have wanted to move back so this sounded perfect, albeit we didn't really think we would move back to that specific location we were thinking more up north, but still we are VERY excited about moving back and being by family. Maybe this next summer when I go to the playground I won't have to talk to AJ about running up to random elderly men and saying, "hey grandpa look at me!", since hopefully it will be more concrete in his mind who exactly his grandparents are.

Anyways yesterday Mark told his boss and today I my former and soon-to-be boss that I wouldn't be able to start in January, so now we are telling everyone. Now that I had the Christmas decorations, they are all coming down since we are painting and getting carpet, etc. and hopefully listing the house next week. Granted maybe not the best time of year to sell, but we are praying it sells quick! Anybody know someone who would like to buy our place?

Also, Mark got my Christmas present early... a new digital camera so here's a couple of shots of my mom visiting last weekend to make cookies with AJ and then some of the kids dancing around today:
