We are Moving to OHIO

Yes, we cannot believe it!  We are moving to OHIO! So excited for Ryan and our new adventure together as a family.  This weekend Ryan and I got a sitter to stay with the kids and we drove to Athens, OH to look at homes and Matthews preschool and the area.

Lake Trip

Prior to this lake Trip, Ryan was offered the job as Senior Associate AD for Development at Ohio University!  We are moving in less than a month from now.  Lots going on before the big move. Below are pictures of the lake trip at the Hodges home with the Riffles.

Last NoVa Visit before our Move

The week prior to this visit Ryan had just interviewed for Senior Associate Athletic Director for Development at Ohio University.  We stayed at Eric and Jessica's house, but visited Christine and Dylan's for a dinner and to catch up with more friends (Chi O Sisters).

Tacoma/Seattle Trip with Mom

Mom and I took a trip alone to Tacoma and Seattle mainly for Kellen Eakin's special wedding weekend and it was beautiful!  It was also a very nice excuse to see our old home, my old school and other fun sites we used to go to.  We did get to meet the owner of our old home which have been the same original owners who bought from us 22 years ago.  Thank you mom, I am so blessed to have been able to go with you and I really enjoyed myself! Below are some photos of our experience. 
*** this was also 4th of July weekend and Mom's 60th Birthday!!
