Texans

This time next year, we'll be Texans!

Justin finished consulting interviews and received two offers and both locations are in Dallas, Texas! We are so thrilled! We are heading to Dallas next weekend for offeree weekend to help make the decision of which one is a better fit for us. Justin's brother, Matt, and his family live there so we are thrilled to move near family. My sister, Shanda, lives six hours away so it will be fun being closer to her as well. We feel blessed to know where we will be heading already and that we have time to plan and figure it all out. A cowboy hat filled with goodies came in the mail the other day so Jorgen and Shelley have had fun trying it on for size (and note Shelley's shirt).

You will love Dallas. My sister-in-law and her husband live there. I think that I told you about him. He works for Bain (I think that's what its called). Do you want to email her? She may give you great information about the different neighborhoods, wards, and schools so you can decide where to live. I'll ask her if you can have her email okay? She's great. She has a 3 yr old girl and a 1yr old boy. Perfect for you guys. I'm a little bit crushed that you won't be moving back here to Malaysia, but I think I would prefer Texas over Malaysia personally. ;-)

You already know how grateful and excited we are......what a tremendous to have two excellent options and to be near Matt, Jene' and girls......certainly simplifies our travel schedule... now when we come we can spend twice as long to have plenty of time with everyone!!!

Best of luck. We even get out to Texas every so often. Glad you get to stay in CA a bit longer.
