This could be it...

Well, we've been in contact with a realtor in Colorado Springs. He has emailed us a few places worth applying for. The one I really want is beautiful! A little higher than we were hoping in price but we may be able to get it a little lower. We are filling out the application this week.

The Jeep is officially for sale. We have had some interest in it. I'm hoping that everything with that gets worked out. God has been providing us with everything we need for this transition. So far, so good.

Here is a link to the house we are applying for... http://ppmlslistings.marketlinx.com/SearchDetail/Scripts/PrtBuyFul/PrtBuyFulPhoto.asp?prp=mls&AgentId=002087&EmailKey=23065457

The kids are doing great. Nathan is getting to the age where he wants to do everything by himself. He is learning how to be independent and it is fun (and frustrating) watching him. Kelsey is just the sweetest little girl, always has a smile on her face. She LOVES playing with Nathan now. They are constantly laughing.

I think that's about it for now...
Our kids need warm clothes for the snow, if you see any good deals, let me know! We should stock up now! :)

Spelling

Shannon always laughs at me because I usually spell the word "since" as "sence." Well since I have put this blog on my Facebook a few of you will be finding it now and are finding out just how bad of a speller I am. Usually I just turn “right” into “write” (as in my last post) and stuff like that. Stephanie is very nice to point this out to me (as was my mother over the years of her proofreading my homework). Well I won’t always be able to check my own writing (I got it that time Steph) and so you will undoubtedly laugh at me a little. I’m ok (Mom is that supposed to be capitalized?) with that and I just hope you all enjoy hearing updates on us Patersons as we move to Colorado.

Update, a little habit building.

So since I haven't really told anyone about this blog yet I'm more writing this to form the habit of bloging. I we know God is telling us to move but not sure exactly how it is working yet. We think REI is where God wants me to be a least at first. We are still waiting to hear back from them whether there is room for me at the Colorado Springs store. It sounds like the want me for the sales floor there. That is exciting because it is one step closer to being promoted too manager. They want you to be both customer service trained (which is what I have been doing for two and a half years there) and sales floor trained. So it looks like it is all a step in the write direction. So once I have the job we just need the money for the move. The sale of the Jeep should be the financing for the move. It is sad, but Shannon said I could get another one down the road. Well that's what we are looking at right now. I should hear from REI in the next couple of days.

The Start

So I decided that since we are most likely going to move far far away. I thought it would be a good idea to start a blog. Well here it is. Shannon will be writing on it as well hopefully. We would like to be able to keep you all up to date on what will be going on in our lives as we move and live in Colorado. Please notice that I gave you all the weather in Colorado Springs (where we will be). It is very different than San Jose. I hope you all enjoy the updates.
