Moving Forward . . . Tennessee

Most that read this blog may already know that we found out a few weeks ago that we are moving to Tennessee in a week or so! It is definitely a bitter-sweet move.

The reality of being closer to my family and old friends is exciting. The adventure that comes along with a change of scenery is intriguing. The possibility of finally buying a home is interesting. The beauty of the South is breathtaking. The milder winters and longer spring and fall are inviting. Leaving our dear friends and family behind in Utah is saddening. Leaving a state with beauty and charm all its own is depressing. Leaving a company and employer who has been very good to us is not thrilling.

We feel like it's the right thing to do and are praying for the best. Friends and family are as close as a phone call or a click of the mouse, but obviously nothing can replace being able to walk through someone's front door. Few things last forever, and time will tell how long our life in Tennessee will last. The last 10 years in Utah have been wonderful and we imagine the next 10 in Tennessee will be the same. We love all of you guys that we are leaving behind here. We will visit as often as possible!
