WE ARE MOVING TO GEORGIA!!!!

WOW!!! I really can't beleive this is happening. Im so excited!!! NO DOUBT ABOUT IT! WE ARE GOING! I wish I could give detail but due to the nature of this offer affecting other people I really can't say much right now. It could put Tim's job on the line. Scary! But we are going. I can tell you that Tim did get a promotion and we are happy with the pay raise he is receiving. So now I know, when I go to Georgia on Friday, I am HOUSE HUNTING!!!!

We don't know when the move is going to happen. I want to wait until after my neices wedding in January and after my sister comes to visit from Holland in February. Hopefully that is how things will work out. I am kind of hoping we can wait until school is out but who knows if that will work out. We are putting our house up for sale right away so if you know anybody intrested in moving into this WONDERFUL ward and neighborhood, pass the word along.

Im begging all of you to PLEASE keep in touch. You have all made such a huge impact on me and I feel like I am losing a big part of my life. I hope I can find as wonderful of friends and neighbors there as we have been blessed with here. I really hope our Ward is a wonderful there as it is here. I don't know if that is possible. You have made my life better in so many ways. You have helped me grow in a way that I can not explain. You have made me stronger spiritually. I truly love you all. Yes, I am talking to you!

Pictures from the Georgia office.

Tim has an offer meeting tomorrow morning, 8:30am!!! (11-28-07) Im so EXCITED! Tony Peterson got his offer today. I guess they were told that Monika and I are NOT allowed to discuss their offers with eachother. WHAT!?!?!? I totally don't get that! BLAH! Whatever! They probably don't want us comparing. Here are some pics Tim has sent from Georgia.

Tim felt so Important when he walked in to the regus training office and saw this sign.
Tim went and had some fun. The Suns were in Atlanta playing the Hawks. He went to the Suns vs. Hawks basketball game.
On the Marta (train) riding into Atlanta to the Basketball game. It's like the light rail we will have here in phoenix.

Tim's office this week in Georgia. 11-26-07. Big enough? (This is in the training building not the McKesson building.)

View from Tims office in Georgia. (the training office not the McKesson office)
Behind Tim's office. (the training office) I love all the trees.
View from his bosses office in Georgia. That would be nice. He says it is better in person.
1/3 of the Gym in their McKesson office. I guess it wraps around to the left and has a bunch of equipment. The locker room and showers are in the center.

No News, Is Not Good News...

Okay, so I got tagged by Cresta. I know, I need to update my blog. I know it has been a while. I have been waiting until Thanksgiving to update, we were supposed to have news on Tim's job by Thanksgiving. But they had some last minuet changes come up. So we don't have any news yet. We are hoping this week.
Tim was home the whole week of Thanksgiving. It was SO great to have him home for the whole week. We got some MAJOR decluttering done! Im so excited! He is so WONDERFUL!!!
He left this morning (Sunday) back to Georgia. I think this week will go by really fast because I am going to go Georgia Friday morning. I will be busy all week getting ready to go. Im excited!
Well that is all I have for now. Below are some Thanksgiving photos. And we had Treasure Goates take some family pictures for us. She is so GREAT!!! Enjoy!


This is what happens when you play on the treadmill with 2 other boys. Thanksgiving morning Tyler and his cousins were playing on Grandpas treadmill and they got going too fast and he fell. He skinned his knees and ankles. OUCH!!! He is VERY lucky it wasn't worse. I have seen worse! Like amputation, worse.



The front half. Our traditional Thanksgiving Hayride. We used to have a old rickety trailor and bails of hay. And it was pulled by an old John Deere tractor. My dad has gotten modern on us. It's still fun.



The back half of the Trailor.



Kenna in the middle and her twin cousins Alison and Kimberly Flake. Yes, they live in Snowflake.



For 20+ years. It is tradition for the kids to jump off the trailor (with out notice) and grab something and then run and catch up and jump back on the trailor. There isn't much to grab anymore. We used to have an open desert behind us and they would grab beer bottles or rocks to throw at the beer bottles or whatever. Now it is the 202 freeway, so all they have to grab are Oranges off the trees. Which is fun to sit and eat them after jumping back on the trailor. Tyler was following the example of his cousins and jumped off. But he got too far behind trying to get an orange. This is him running, trying to catch up. He ran a good mile before he got worn out. He is the one in the middle of the pack in the blue. The others were allready back on.



Tyler made it on the trailor this time. But he did get a head start. He's a fast runner too. My brother was also on the back helping him get on. Thankgoodness! Although Tyler did have a near death expirience when a car was coming very fast down the road as tyler was jumping off he tripped and fell on the ground and the car barley saw him in time a swerved to miss him. My brother said he froze and was thinking oh no, here we go, he's gonna get hit. All he could do was scream "Tyler, get up! Tyler, get up!" Im so glad I was on the opposite side of the Trailer and didn't see it happen. I would have died! I swear he has angles around him.


Yes, Mommy and Katrina were on the hayride too.

A fun Idea for a picture. It turned out cute.

I stole this Idea from Heather Darger. Her's turned out cuter but hey! This pic. was actually by accident. I was trying to get some cute ones of him smileing and then he looked over at something Katrina was doing and I took it.

Im so impressed! Can you beleive we allready have our christmas decorations up? Usually the lights don't happen at all. But this year they did. I think its because Tim knew he isn't going to be around during the week so he had to get it done when he was here. And he is acutally going to be gone the next two weeks. And wont be home this weekend because Im going there. So, he really had to get it done. YAY!!!
