A sign of change

I'm sure some have heard through the grapevine (or Facebook) that we will soon be moving. We will be leaving this....
...for this.
The beautiful Minnesota farm. And yes, these pictures were taken just yesterday! While the cold weather will be quite a change again, we are so excited to be moving home!
In honor of our move, this was how we dressed for Halloween last night.
Nora loves lollipops!
Go Vikings!
Trinity and Trelise joined us for some Trick-or-Treating.
The whole family. They will soon be moving back to New Zealand. We will miss all of our friends so very much!
Out Trick-or-Treating. I may have mentioned that the street right behind us goes all out each Halloween, which brings large crowds to our neighborhood on Halloween night. We went through all our candy (at least 20 bags worth) in less than an hour!
Nora shows off her moves!

Mike and Amanda! You are moving home to where Mike grew up? I have goosebumps. :) Thrilled for you and all your family that will love having you back. What a wonderful feeling to be moving home (in every sense of the word!)When does this take place?
Coming out of the woodwork with love, Kari

Thinking of you guys as you get ready to move. Maybe we'll run into you every once in a while in MN!

So wonderful to move back near family. That is one thing I very much miss. Hope your move goes smoothly. Wish you were coming closer this way. We miss you all.

Will be sad not to have you as a cross country pit stop but I'm SO excited for you! Your new home looks fabulous.

It's amazing how fast the years can go, but it's just another chapter of your life just about to begin as this one wraps up. Good luck with the move and all the changes. It's a true blessing to be willing for the things in life that can cause us to grow...and I'm grateful for the chapters that you were apart of in our lives as well. We will miss our oasis in the desert on our way to Cali, I suppose we will have to work in the east, then.:)

Yes, the old ASAS grapevine just keeps on informing. I just heard last night. I am so happy for you and Amanda and the kids - but Las Vegas will be a sadder and darker place without your family. I will continue to keep checking in on you, more often than before. I'll always consider you friends, Mike and Amanda. I wish you all the best. Lisa
