Our Decision

Well, the word is pretty much out now...the big decision I wrote about earlier is that we are moving.  Yes, moving back to NV. (and no, Mark will not be working at his old shop).  It is something we have been contemplating for a while now.  As I said earlier, it was a very hard decision, one we put a lot of thought and prayer into.  We have had so much turmoil in the past few months here in MN.  Most of which is because when we got married it upset a certain someone.  We have gone back and forth for quite some time now and well, we finally came to the decision, together, that we married each other for a reason.  We got married because we love each other deeply, we are best friends, we have always been there for each other no matter what.  When you take your vows, you promise each other, and God, for better or worse, in sickness and health, among other things...and this whole situation has definitely put that to the test.  But, we are one, and just because this is our second marriage, we are still choosing to honor it and put our marriage first.  The bottom line is that we are both in this for life, by choice and we are happy about it.  Now, I know that some of you reading this might not understand or even agree with our decision, that is alright, we aren't asking you to.  But, as our friends, we do ask that you support us as we would you. 

We will be flying back to MN once a month to spend four days (sometimes more) with the kids.  The kids know and are on board with it.  They will be with us in NV for Christmas, Spring Break and Summer. 

This is a new chapter in our journey, one of many chapters.  While it was a difficult choice, we are both happy about it and looking forward to the new and exciting things life has in store for us.  We are a family and nothing will change that. 

As for what we will be doing...we will be starting a business together!  We are really looking forward to it too!  Life is full of opportunity and we are seizing it!  Life is also full of unknown, but when you are walking into the unknown with a person you can trust with your life, it doesn't seem so frightening! 

In my last entry, I talked about the meaning of True Friends.  For those of you who read it, please don't think it was about you.  We are well aware that we have an abundance of true friends, and we are very thankful for you. 

We hope that you will support us as well as be excited for us.  I can promise you there will be some great stories added to our blog throughout the next month as we depart on this new journey!
