So I guess this is the 100% official sad but good news all wrapped into one. We also second Missy's comments.

You've got to be kidding. I've only ever seen these pictures before in a forwarded email. Why in the world are you moving there? For how long? Did you get the map out? 'Cause I'll sure have to! Good luck! I hope the cost of living is better than it looks!

I have to third Missy's and Michelle's comments. We are going to miss you guys. Maryn will miss playing with Abby especially. You will probably do this already, but you'll have to keep up with your blog to tell and show us all the fun and new places and things you'll be doing.

There are more amazing pictures online if anyone cares to look. I will tag along to help with the kids for the first few days and then maybe venture over again. I will be saving my royalty money for the second or third trip. I am sooooo excited but sad when I think of them being gone - especially the little ones.
