I am feeling a little torn these days. Andy and I decided a while back that we would like to move internationally for a few years (hopefully with his current company). We've been back in Utah almost 2 years and I still don't feel settled which I am taking as a sign that we aren't done with our adventures yet. However, we've got it good here!!!! Andy goes to work early so he gets home almost everyday before 4 pm! I love that. His commute is only 15 minutes each way. I love that. I get to hang out with my mom and sisters and my adorable nephews and niece. I LOVE that. I get to hang out with my best pal Ashly and her cute kids. I love that. I have a nice house that fits all of us (although a 4th bedroom would be heaven) and a yard with a garden. I love that.
Oh, by the way, I have a TON of beautiful tomatoes growing and I can't WAIT to eat them. But I digress.
We've just got it so good here and the thoughts of going back to apartment living, even if it is in a wonderful city like London, makes me kind of sad. I do hope that we get the opportunity to go somewhere for 2-3 years but it will make me sad to leave our comfortable life in Utah. Mostly we just think the kids with an English accent will be too damn cute!! Am I right?? I would love a foreign speaking country though and have the kids learn another language. What a great opportunity to learn while they're young and their minds are still sponges. My mind on the other hand is all dried up and my kids will have to translate for me!
I suppose we'll put it all to prayer and go from there. HEY, that rhymed!!!

Let me tell you, now that we're on the verge of an international move, I'm sure glad I haven't had the chance to get used to a bigger house. I feel like we can pretty much move into anything after we've been out here! I'll be excited to see how your adventures unfold in the next few years.
That's a tough one. I say go for a little bit and then come right back here. And quick. It would be sad to have you leave but you'll likely never get an opportunity like that again.
so i know i don't really know you and all but i agree with the other comment you only have one life to live and you should live it to the fullest you most likely won't get a chance like this again espescially when your kids get bigger and settled in themselves. And what a great experience for you guys! (by the way i have never left springville and pack light..just sayin)so i'd say go for it but for sure come back when it feels right.
