Too long...

Wow...has it really been almost a year since I updated this? I guess facebook just became easier!



Well, with another year brings another move for our family. In late March, Todd was promoted and his new position took him to Edina, MN just outside Minneapolis. We put our house on the market then, but did not receive an offer until the end of September as we were pulling out the driveway for MN. Todd had commuted every week from PA to MN for 6 months. Needless to say that got old after about a week! But God took care of everything, in His time, not ours and we now own only one home again instead of two. Whew.
While Todd was working here, he was the one to go on the house hunting trips. He found a house and we agreed to put an offer on it, but I only saw the pictures online. We took a huge leap of faith and things worked out. We absolutely love the neighborhood and the town. We are about 25 miles outside of the Twin Cities but it does not feel that far. Our town is small and quaint with about 6,000 people and 1 stoplight...love it!
Hayden seems to be doing well in his new school and has made some new friends. There are lots of kids in the neighborhood and everyone is out when the weather is nice. However we do miss our friends in Central PA and they will always hold a special place in our lives.
As for the weather, it was absolutely beautiful the first month we were here and has just recently turned cold. We had our first MN snow storm this past Saturday and that brought us about 11" of heavy wet snow. Unfortunately it also brought us about 24 hours without power.
I will try to get some new pictures soon. We hope this finds you all well.

Welcome back, Angie! We love you guys so much and can't wait to see you! I hope we'll get up to Minnesota sooner rather than later. Enjoy! There is so much to do, and the people are wonderful.
