Al and I are officially moving back to Wisconsin. I have accepted a job offer, and we will
return to the dairy state in two weeks. We are both thrilled to be moving to Madison
for the career opportunities, close proximity to family, and LESS
TRAFFIC!!!...and really…the most important reason…THE CHEESE!!!
We will miss the DC area, the museums, the events, and
mostly our many friends that became our DC family. When you live so far away from your
biological family, you form a close bond with your friends. We’ve celebrated holidays together, been pet
sitters for each other, cheered each other on at ½ and full marathons, thrown
each other graduation parties, and even taken care of each other when we were
sick or hospitalized. We couldn’t have
made it out here without our DC family, and we will miss you tremendously. We hope you can visit us in Wisconsin, and we
look forward to visiting DC (like in January when it is negative 3,000 degrees
outside in Wisconsin and the snow is higher than the trees…expect a knock at
your door).
We also want to thank our Wisconsin friends who have kept in
touch with us through phone calls, emails, FB messages, and even visits out
east. It is very easy to get home sick
being 1,000 miles away from home, but your words and laughter would always
bring our spirits up! The friends that
stick with you even with half a country in between you are friends for life.
Finally we have to thank our families. Thank you for supporting our decision to move
so far away, supporting us while we were here, and supporting us through the
move back. We are so thankful for your
patience and understanding. We look
forward to spending more time with you now that we will be living in Wisconsin.
Now, someone get me some curds...STAT!!
mmmm...curds...
I guess you are a real cheese head!
ReplyDeleteFYI, the traffic in Madison sucks, too. Although I don't think any place is as bad as DC. At least not anywhere else I've visited. ;)
