We made it to Colorado

When Annie and I were first married both our parents and families lived very close to us in Oregon City Oregon. It was a huge blessing for us and we loved it. We were excited that our kids would be close to grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. And of course the free babysitting wasn't bad either. Slowly, however, family started to move away. Annie's parents ended up in Colorado and mine in Kansas.  Between Colorado and Kansas we knew we had a better chance of finding a job in Colorado, and we couldn't give up both the ocean and mountains, so our goal became to move to Colorado.  Well that was over five years ago, and it has taken us that long to achieve that goal.  But we did it!  We are living in Colorado now and couldn't be more excited.

We know that we couldn't have done it alone.  Heavenly Father has supported us in this goal, and we had many faith building experiences along the way.  We experienced answered prayers, doors opening, and guidance and inspiration that has led us here. We are just as  grateful for the blessing we have received to be able to move to Colorado as we are of the journey and experiences along the way.  In future posts I will make an account of some of those experiences ... so stay tuned ...
