A Day with Grandmas...

My mom took Ammon, Maddie Sue, and their cousins Kaili & Kennedy to visit my grandma in Tonto Basin while I worked on the job cost verification audit for Dean Douglas. They really enjoyed the special time together. They've also had the opportunity to spend a lot of quality time with my dad and stepmom too. They've been a HUGE help with the kids while I've been in Arizona. It's been difficult to be apart from Nathan, but we've enjoyed being able to attend special events (like Kennedy's birthday party and Daylen's baptism). We're sad to leave all of our great friends in Connecticut, but are excited to be closer to family. I've been horrible about taking pictures, but here are a few photos that my mom sent me.

Exciting (Yet sad) News to Share...

Life has been a little hectic lately. In early July, Nathan was offered a position with the California Air National Guard. We will be moving to the Mountain View area in a few months. I recently completed 2 HUD job cost verification audits for Dean Douglas, so the kids and spent time in Arizona. They enjoyed spending time with cousins, and it's been wonderful to spend some quality time with family.

Since September is a busy month for Nathan (usually works every day within the month to prepare for the fiscal yearend on September 30th), we've decided that it would be best for me to stay in Arizona with the kids to make this transition easier on them. We're sad to say goodbye to all of our wonderful friends in New England. We'll miss you all dearly. Thank you for all your love & support! At the same time, we're excited to be closer to our families and looking forward to a new chapter in our lives.
