6 years of marriage, 6 homes to live in

It's official, we are moving back to Texas! Jeramy's company has transferred him back and he is being moved to a new position. It's a lateral move, but it's a move into an area that he has wanted to be in since he started back with the company over three years ago. Really it's the job that he wanted when he quit roughnecking 11 years ago and went back to college. So, I'm really happy and excited for him even if I'm not entirely pleased to be moving back to Texas so soon.


I have really adjusted well to living here. It's not the just the clean air, nice folks and mountains of snow either. I have made some fellow expat friends here that I hope will be a part of my life forever. I have grown attached to their children and look forward to the day when we are all back in Houston or hanging out during a visit to the UK, watching our kids run and play while we reminisce about our time in the Great White North.


The movers come to pack our things on July 20th and on the 21st everything gets loaded up and heads out for the trip south. We plan to stick around here in a hotel for about another week and then fly to Houston on July 27th. We spent some time during our visit home last week looking for a house, but nothing really jumped out and grabbed us. This will be our 6th residence since we got married and Ryleigh's 5th home to live in. Maybe this will be the one that we stay in for more than just a few years, maybe not since we plan to jump at the next opportunity to move abroad. To know us it to love us!


So, if you're here in St. John's, make sure we get together before we leave! And if you're down in Texas waiting on us to return, we'll see you soon y'all!
