It's official...
...we're moving to Portland, OR!
We're so excited to be closer to Dave and Karmin, and all the cool folks we've met at the LIFE is Good conferences. While we'll miss Jackson -- it has been just shy of 16 years!!! -- we're excited about the change.
Bret will be working for City of Portland (Bureau of Environmental Services) and flys out on August 20 to begin work the 22nd. He'll fly back to Jackson on the 29th to drive back out with the girls, cats dog and me (for some reason, I blanched at doing the drive solo...can't imagine why...).
We should arrive in Portland on the 31st of August and move into the house that has been owend for almost 20 years by the midwife who caught Vivian. I'll post photos once we finalize things with her. It's in a cool, older neighborhood about 2 miles from downtown/Bret's office, and within walking distance to several neat shops/parks/etc.
So...advance apologies if I'm slow to respond to an email...or if blog doesn't get updated much in the next few weeks...but we're weeding out stuff and packing...WAHOO!
