The News.

I know we have been super vague about our trip to Delaware, but we can now reveal that we are moving. Yep. Darrin was offered a job that we can't refuse. He will be the Assistant General Manager of the Lewes, DE Board of Public Works. He starts ASAP. We found a house that we are putting an offer on and are trying to be there in three weeks. What a year this has been. The community and the ward are sooooo friendly. They welcomed us site unseen. The Board begged Darrin to seriously consider the position. They need him and want him and esteem him. Take that City of Safford. :O Seriously, we have felt directed literally the entire way. We couldn't have even considered this move a year ago, heck even a month ago. It is a beautiful little town on the coast with farms dispersed through the county. Darrin's office is right in Lewes, but we will live about 15-20 minutes inland. This house is in an awesome area with a lake. It is 4 bedroom 2.5 bath, 3/4 basement (guesthouse) foreclosure that isn't on the market yet, but the realtor is going to try to get it under the table. We love it. The school says to go before school is out to give the kids a chance to meet some friends before summer, so.......here we go.

This is Darrin's office. It is brand new. No furniture yet.

Sounds like you are going to enjoy it over there. Too bad it is so far away. I don't know when we will ever see you guys...besides the pictures on your blog. It's a good thing you update it a lot!

Your blog address is very appropriate for this move. That is a beautiful house and what a lovely little town. I'm glad you've been blessed with this opportunity but we sure will miss you.

Congrats! I'm glad to see you've gone coastal instead of postal. Hope everything works out like butta with the new house and three week move. It's crazy, but it can be done. What do Dallin and Emily think? Will you fly or drive out? Do you need a pit stop in Wyoming? etc.

Well my goodness! That is exciting and it will be a crazy couple months. I sure will miss you guys. I am glad I got to spend some time with your younger kids before you move across the country. They are wonderful and I love your family. Question, is that address for Dal the new one since transfers? I would like to write him this week.
