As a rule, man is a fool / When it's hot, he wants it cool / When it's cool, he wants it hot /
Always wanting what it's not, / Never wanting what he's got.

We've Moved!

About a month ago, we left our home in Carrollton, Texas and relocated to Aurora, Illinois. Dallas to Chicago - a big move for us! Robert was offered a promotion with the condition that he would have to relocate. We happily accepted and now we're in a new place. Moving was a big headache and we had some hiccups selling our home in Texas (including a check that the title company mailed to Aurora, Colorado instead of Illinois), but things are smoothing out now. 

Our house in Carrollton, Texas
Good-bye Texas!
I have to remind myself to not say Ill-i-noise. Emily keeps telling me that it's "just like Texas here!" The weather hasn't been "just like Texas" here; seems like the high temperature has only been 80 degrees instead of 95+. Robert loves his new job and the company car that came with it. We've made friends and started sightseeing. We're working on getting licensed for foster care in Illinois. 

Hello Illinois!
We had a family picnic the first night in our new place.
All in all, we are sad to leave our friends in Texas, but we are very happy with the way life is turning out for us in Illinois.
