Moving to Russia

| Wednesday, April 1, 2009

We've kept this quiet for some time now, but wanted to let everyone know that we are moving to Russia! That's right. We have talked about this for quite some time and are really excited. We are going to live in a small town just outside of Penza. We found a great little place there (we haven't seen it yet but her Mom promises it to be a great place). We are super stoked and we have no plans to move back to America any time soon. There are so many great reasons to move to Russia:

- Lots more opportunities for us and our kids
- Better hospitals and medical care
- And best of all we can shed this mortgage we just picked up

I hope that all of you are excited for us as well. We are accepting farewell gifts, so please make sure to give us money because we aren't taken much with us. Oh yeah, we don't have jobs lined up yet, but we aren't worried. There are plenty of great jobs on the outskirts of Penza. I'm sure I'll be programming for a company in no time. Maybe some of you want to join us.

Here's a picture of the small древня (town) where we're moving:

We're leaving the end of May!
