As everyone is aware, Scott and I have decided to relocate to Arizona with Scott's job. This has been a really great opportunity for us, and we are looking forward to our new adventure in AZ.
We spent some time in Arizona during the Christmas holiday in 2007 and really enjoyed it out here. It is very conducive to our lifestyle, plus the warm weather helps. Scott liked the fact that he can run year round and not have to contend with the various elements he deals with in Maryland, won't have to worry about running in the ice out here, just the extreme heat during a few summer months. He will obviously run at the gym or late in the evenings then. Arizona is very different from what we are used to, but we really enjoyed it and think it will be a nice place to some day start our family. We will certainly miss our family and friends on the East Coast, but everyone has an open invitation to come and visit us!! When the weather is cold and dreary in the winter...come see us in AZ!!
We found out the official news of Scott's relocation in March of 2008. We traveled to Arizona in the beginning of April to find a home, and we were successful. We found a lovely home in Chandler, AZ. Chandler is the city where Scott's company is located, and it is about 20 minutes southeast of Phoenix. It is a very nice area, very family friendly and clean. We move into our new home in Chandler on May 16th. We can't wait.
We were fortunate enough to spend some time in late March at Kristin and John's with them, Jack, Betsy and Millie and Scott's parents. This was a great time, we will miss the ability to just zip up the road to see them, but will see them frequently. The next time we see the Cushwa family there will be another Cushwa baby, we can't wait to meet baby Cushwa. And Jack, Betsy and Millie will continue to amaze us as they are growing up so quickly. We had a lot of fun with everyone that day!!
As part of our relocation with Toyota, they sent a company to pack our home in Owing Mills, MD on April 23rd and 24th to pack and load everything up. Wow were those guys impressive!! They didn't even mind the fact that Bayley wanted to help. She made four new friends over the course of those days, and made sure everything was thoroughly inspected :)
Once the house was packed we were able to breath a bit easier. On Friday, Scott's HR department on the East Coast took us to Tom Mitchell's for lunch and a round of miniature golf/ We had a lot of fun!! Friday evening we enjoyed the last steamed crabs that we will have in MD for a while with Mike and Jeanette White. We really enjoyed the crabs, but especially the company!!
Saturday afternoon and evening Scott and I enjoyed spending time with many of our friends...one last bash in Baltimore. We really enjoyed spending time with everyone and reminiscing over fun memories.
Sunday morning we enjoyed a wonderful brunch at Harryman House with Jen, Dan and Reaghan Strine. That was really nice too!!
Next time we see Reaghan we probably won't recognize her, she's growing up so quickly. We will miss everyone, but will be back to visit...and everyone has an open invitation to come visit us in Arizona, there's plenty of space.
