Pause

I've learned A LOT of patience in the last few years... but I guess I'm still an impatient person. But maybe it isn't impatience so much as the fact that I ALWAYS have to wait for EVERYTHING. lol. And how exactly can you call it being impatient or patience if that's just the way your life is?

Have I lost you yet?

Well, on a completely different note (sorta) we are moving back to Las Vegas! I don't think I'm really supposed to shout it from the rooftops yet, but no one really reads this thing. Ha ha.

We're excited... and bummed to leave Austin. Jake was offered a job and it isn't something we can pass up. It's finally a really good thing that'll happen to us and we are running to the opportunity with open arms. There are a few downfalls... leaving behind this awesome city to go back to the ugliness that is Las Vegas is one. But at least our families are there and we'll be able to do things like backpacking through mountains (which don't exist in central Texas) and going to Disneyland. We will no longer be able to see movies at the Alamo Drafthouse which has been our favorite thing about Austin. We will no longer have amazing BBQ... or Torchy's Tacos, or TacoDeli, or Kirby Lane Cafe, or P Terry's Burgers, or Mighty Fine Burgers... um.. we're going to miss the food. A lot. And we'll surely miss the super friendly Texans that are full of state pride and are really just genuinely pleasant people.


Yes, Austin will always be in our hearts. Texas will always be a part of us. How can it not be when we've lived here for two years? I say y'all all the time now! Maybe not a true Texan, but I have loads of respect and admiration for the spirit of this great state.

First off, huge congrats to Jake for the job offer. I'm sure that will be a bittersweet move for sure. We're currently debating moving to SLC, Mesa, or St George next Spring or Summer to be closer once baby arrives. I'm SO torn because I LOVE Portland and all that it has to offer. I just wish I could pick up my family and move them at least ten hours closer. :)

Good luck with the move!!

p.s. let me know when you find patience. I'm still currently looking for it. :)

All right! That's exciting! It's sad to leave a place where you've grown together and have come to love all your own. That's how we felt about Salt Lake. Yay for Jake! Maybe now we'll see each other more often (like once a year instead of every 2 years). Hooray!
