And this week we'll be moving to . . .

Memphis. It has been a really long process, not always easy, but as of yesterday it's official that we are moving to Memphis. We still land in Minneapolis this weekend and will spend a couple days there before driving down via Austin and Pella, hoping to arrive Memorial Day weekend to our new home where we'll feverishly find a house, buy a couple cars, gather things scattered in three states and shipping from the Netherlands and do what we can do to get settled before this baby arrives. So, lots of mixed emotions here amidst good-byes in Maastricht and the let-down of not going home to Minnesota and excitement for what Memphis holds for us. The good news is that we have great friends in Memphis and Ryan's job will be one that we anticipate he'll really be challenged by and enjoy. I wish I had time to write more and e-mail folks individually, but as you can imagine it's a little crazy right now so thanks for your e-mails, thoughts, prayers, etc. More when we catch our breath. Love from us!
