And we are being transferred to....

MOBILE, ALABAMA!!!
(Bienville Square)
We consider ourselves so blessed to be able to go back home for awhile. We've missed family and friends and just the charm of the South.
The hard part about military life is making friends and leaving them. Even though I don't think California is one of those places I would want to spend the rest of my life in, I have made some wonderful friends whom I will miss terribly.
On the up side I can hardly wait to be with my parents and siblings and for my kids to experience living near their cousins and Grandparents. In fact no one in my family has even met Hannah! As we prepare ourselves for this wonderful change all I can say is,
"Mama, I'm comin' home!"

Hi Kara! I'll bet your mom is so happy you are moving back:) Are you looking for a home in Theodore Ward? We are all doing great-yes I know that it hurts the "hiney" to spin, but believe me-you get used to it! Now I don't even feel the difference;) Storrie does not blog. She has gone back to teaching school full time and teaches at the gym 1-2 times a week and has very little time for anything else!

E.R. Dickson is a great school. However, if you plan to be here a long time (especially to the middle school years) you probably won't like the middle school selection-that is what keeps us out of Mobile Ward. Our oldest is starting middle school next year and that was a huge concern of our.

YEAH!!! How exciting to be going back home...I wish we could get back to Denver somehow...it will be fun for the kids to be around all of their cousins...think you want to drive through Tucson on your way?...just a little detour

Stacy is right about Middle school, but really IMHO, most of the middle schools are not that great unless you get into a magnet school---which is all lottery! Luck of the draw, we are hoping and praying Ariel gets into Phillips. Pray about were you should be, and I hope Heavenly father tells you Mobile Ward, but if not...I'm fine with that! :)
