...Portland anyone?
Goodbye Unified Fire Authority, hello Tualatin Valley Fire & Rescue!!!
Now...?
Thanks CC.
Thanks Chris for coming down and going skiing with Eric (my paramedic partner, left in pic) and telling him about the lateral hire so he could come and tell me at work that morning in late January so I could get a better job.
Hello rainforest, goodbye desert brown.
Ross followed in my footsteps for some time, then I moved to Orem following her, stole her best friend and started a family. We thought we were just going to be here. Now I follow her Oregon trail (no pun intended). Ross, but sorry, I was born in Vegas which is good enough for me. I'll keep Oregon and all it has to offer my little family.
I'm going to Disneyland!!!

WOW!! That's BIG news! Good for you! We wish you and your darling family the best!
Well, that is quite a circle we are following each other in! I didn't even realize!
We are so happy for you! Now all you have to do is remember to take slow deep breaths. It's all gonna be ok!
Congrats! Sometimes it is good to strike out on your own..... enjoy Portland, what a beautiful place!
I think you are going to love your new adventure! And ... I think Pop's moving service is back in business!
Love ya,
Mom
A penny for my thoughts? I am up at 6:00 thinking all of this..What about the 16 and 17 year old girls living downstairs? They are crying...where will they go? How the heck am I going to sell this house in this economy? When is the weather going to clear so I can get the yard ready for curb appeal? What am I going to do with my 3 kids while we are trying to find a place? When are we going to move? How are we going to pull this off. Lastly, I AM SCARED. (But,I feel like it is the right thing to do)
Wow, that's HUGE! I will miss you! Good luck with all of those big decisions, it will all work out somehow.
I am so excited for you. I know it will be very stressful for you, but I really think it will work out for you. I also think you will be very happy. And you know I will do anything I can to help. All you have to do is ask:) I love you guys and I wish you all the best.
Love,
Ashley
Well, flights out of Las Vegas are cheap so once it is time to look for a place in Portland you will drive to Vegas and fly out of here and I can keep your kids for as long as you need me to. It will be so fun! We can go to the park and swim! I have a car big enough now.
Congrats! What an amazing opportunity for you guys - we are so excited for your adventure. I had my own mini freak out last night thinking of all the challenges, obstacles and changes that lay ahead for your family - but i have no doubt that you will successfully tackle each one.
Love you,
Karly
Oh my gosh Congratulations!!! We are so ecstatic for your family! It is a huge change but I think it is going to be a big blessing for your family and a fun one at that (of course once you are settled in)! Can't wait to visit you all in Portland.
If you need me to help in ANY way let me know. Love you guys!!!
I am so excited for you and Mercedes too. I can't wait to meet you and your super cute wife and kids! By the way, I am a Reno/now Portland CC friend.
to add to the irony of where everyone is ending up, i moved to portland from las vegas to live with ross, now ross is in las vegas.
moving/uprooting is scary, but also incredibly liberating. there was a reason why you guys were prompted to look into and pursue this change; try to think of all the positives. you will have some difficult months ahead of you, but remember that you have a huge support system full of love and excitement ready whenever you need the help.
i love you guys and cannot wait to have you near me! i'm happy to do whatever i can to help make this a smooth transition.
xoxo
You guys have all kinds of offers for help, so on behalf of my girls, Tania and Monica, I know they would be happy to help in anyway they can! Family first, that is what Grandpa taught us. A move is really scary, wish I was closer, so I could help too, but...if you drive through, we have beds. Love and Luck Aunt Robin
i miss you all i hope you all have fun.....call me soon
