Christmas in June...

I'm grateful that having a simple conversation with someone can give me clarity on something that I've shoved into the back of my mind, because I don't want to confront it.  My hubby asked me this past week where I would want to be buried if I died.  I told him, in Salt Lake City at the same cemetary my Grandma's buried at.  So then he said to me, "why are we wasting our time trying to make a life in a place you don't even want to be buried in when you're dead?"  (light bulb goes off and smack myself on the forehead moment)...I've always known my husband was smarter than he let's on...and he posed an excellent question.  

Soooo...we're Salt Lake City bound in 2011!!  That is our plan, by summer we hope to be there permanently.  We know we'll have to start again and hubby will have to look for work, but we feel like it's the right place for us and where we NEED to be.  I won't lie, it's a little scary,  we're doing pretty well here job wise and in this economy, it's not exactly pick and choose, you kind of have to go where the work is...but we have faith that the Lord will take care of us as we do what's best for our family eternally and not just financially.  We are certainly not alone, we have our families to help us out as we get situated which I am so grateful for and the rest will take care of itself.    WE ARE SO EXCITED!  I feel like I'm going to burst out of my skin.  It's going to be great to be near loved ones again.  I can't wait to for my son to grow up with his cousins and be able to have dinner with my sisters and their families and be near my parents and learn from them while they are still here and giggle with my nieces and nephews and hang out with our dear friends as a couple again and spend time with my Grandpa.  I am counting down the days for sure....it'll be Christmas in June.
