Update on the BIG MOVE!

In case you haven't heard, Tahitian Noni, the company that Cim works for, is relocating us back to Utah. Cim will be starting a new position and will be working in Provo. So, I have spent countless hours looking online for homes and we are heading out to Utah next weekend on the 26th to look at homes. We will return on October 1st and will then have 2 weeks to get ready to move. Originally our plan was to fly out to Utah on the 18th, but we just found out that the Primary Sacrament Program is on the 19th, so we will probably leave on the 20th. We moved to New York exactly 3 years ago today! It was a huge adjustment at first and took some time to get use to the NY way of life, but it has grown on us and there are a lot of things we will miss. We have made some really wonderful friends here in our ward and we will really miss them. Fortunately, we know that most of them will visit Utah every once in a while, so we know we will see them again. We will really miss the schools and the special ed programs! Caleb only has 8 kids in his class here with 1 teacher and 5 assistants. Caitlyn only has 7 kids in her class with the teacher and 1 assistant. It will be hard to find those ratios in Utah schools. But, we really feel like moving back to Utah is the right thing to do. So, this adventure we call life continues! We will keep you all posted and let you know where we end up, when we know.

Your new back ground is so cute! Ok, so I feel like I did when my parents moved from AZ to UT. I don't know how to explain it. But, we had a lot of fun memories together in NY and now those will only be memories. Having babies together, playing together, ect. I can honestly look back and remember good, fun times. So, good luck with the move! I'll be interested to hear how your trip to UT goes!

I love your new blog look! And...I'm sad to not be able to visit you in New York (that was such a fun and memorable trip), but look forward to being able to see you even more often in Utah! :) Good luck with the move.

Well, we were considering moving near you guys, but now you've gone and ruined any chances of that happening. I mean, Utah? Really? New York was great, why would you want to move to Utah?

On the bright side we'll come visit you more often, and we're DEFINITELY excited about that. And if you feel like it's the right thing to do then it probably is. I'm excited for you, I just don't envy you.

Hi Katie!
I just found your blog on the Lester's. You have a darling family. I am so envious of you moving back to Utah. We are in Texas where Shawn is finishing his PHd and we have been offered a post doctorate position that lasts 1-2 years, then hopefully, we will be back in Utah. It is fun to see your family through the blog. Good luck on your house hunting.
