We are moving...AGAIN!!

Near Stinson Beach




Yeah, we rented a convertable for the week...that's the way to see Nor Cal.


Downtown Petaluma


Petaluma River...it runs right through the middle of town.



The Post Office!!




Justin got the most amazing job opportunity, with an amazing company. Justin has worked for Amy's Kitchen for 4 years as a Regional Sales Director. He has loved his job and we as a family have often commented about how great the company is. They offered him a position in the office that sounded like it was right up his alley. But there was one hiccup...we would have to move 500 miles away from everyone that we knew and loved. "Are you kidding" was our initial response, but then we decided to open our minds a little.
Boy did that pay off. We flew up to Petaluma this weekend and checked out the city, houses, and of course, the job. It was absolutely amazing. We fell in love with the area, the schools are great, and the people...oh the people...they are wonderful. Petalumans like to "enjoy " life. No one is worried about rushing around to get that next thing done. You will find families out taking bike rides, or couples out for dinner and a stroll by the river. They seem to live life like they are on vacation. It is, litterally, a breath of fresh air.
We fell in love and couldn't wait to bring the rest of our family. Justin accepted the promotion and now we just have to find a house...
This is an adventure for this family of five but we can't wait! We are so excited. It will be hard to leave our family and friends but this is what we felt we needed to do rto secure our future. And everyone seems to be thrilled for us, which has been so great to hear. I hope that everyone will come and visit very soon.
