Utahns or Idahoans?
Yes, it is true, we are moving back to Utah. We just can't decide if we are Utahns or Idahoans. This will be our ninth move and we are in our ninth year of marriage. Pretty crazy.
We will be moving back to Saratoga Springs,
In our old neighborhood - so that is good.
Leaving our small town - that's bad.
Being near Cafe Rio - that's good.
Leaving Taco Bandito - that's bad.
More options for shopping - that's good.
More options for shopping - that's bad.
Going back to the Mecca of Ballroom Dance - that's good.
Leaving Jennifer and Melissa's studio - that's bad.
Having a neighborhood swimming pool - that's good.
Not being on the Burley Barracuda swim team - that's bad.
Jackson being in Itty Bitty sports - that's good.
Maddie not dancing with Jennifer and Melissa - that's bad.
Being in our old ward - that's good.
Leaving the 3rd ward - that's bad.
A neighborhood with lots of kids - that's good.
Leaving Lauren, Sammie and Sylvia - that's bad.
And the biggest pro and con of all:
Being near tons of cousins - that's good.
Leaving Gramas & Grampas - that's BAD.
As you can see there are lots of pros and cons, so we are just going to make the best of it.
We have absolutely loved living in Burley and are so grateful for what we have learned and the special relationship our kids now have with both sets of grandparents. Life will never be the same. We feel we know the reasons we have lived here and hope we can always remember those lessons and make them a part of our lives.
We will miss this old Burley town! (Jacee's words)

We will miss you! You always have a smile to give and make Sundays just a little brighter:)
Well when the market picks up you and come back. We may not be here, how knows... but Burley is nice. The Grandparent thing will be the hardest on all of you, at least it is for me. Good luck!!!

Like I said before in my email. NO, NO, NO!!!!!

I didn't notice in your list of good or bad... you missing your presidency. HELLO??????
I am glad we will get to see you more. However, it will be hard to leave that special relatiionship with Grama and Grampa mission.
We will miss you and your cute family. I have learned lots from you and have had some greats times as a presidency!! Good Luck!!
