Fox Valley area it is!

An update on our living status and future...

...OshKosh Corporation finally got back to us with Ed's job offer on January 6th! And on Thursday the 7th....after much discussion, he accepted it, and called the Menomonee Falls company to rescind his acceptance of their offer.

Therefore, we will be moving to the Fox Valley area!

Today we took our first trip to look at houses in Appleton and Neenah! It was a long, cold, but productive day. We have found a subdivision we like, as well as a home, but are awaiting answers to a few questions before making any offers.

I have started looking for jobs, but haven't been very successful so far. I am picky and would really like to stay within an NICU, so if I don't find a position, I plan to commute for awhile if necessary, but probably/hopefully only part-time vs full-time. We will see.

We are sorry to leave our friends and family in the area, but we feel we need to do what is in the best interest for our family at this time.

You know my feelings on this move. I'm not happy.

But, I am happy that Ed has a new great job, and that you're excited to go. We'll just miss you!

What month do you want us all to come up for CAMP?

Congratulations Ed on your new job. I am sure this is a hard decision for both of you. You will not be that far away from all of us!! Watch out Neenah!
