The purpose of this blog is to keep our friends and family updated as we are moving to Chicago and once we get there. Since I haven't talked to everyone as often as I should some background is probably needed about the move...
Last February, Andy's school sent him to Chicago to visit another high school in his charter network. I came along for the trip since I was off work that weekend. It was cold. It was wet. We still had a great time on the trip. This picture is from the John Hancock Center in Downtown Chicago (the fourth largest building in the US). You can get an idea of how dreary it was during this trip.
After we returned to Denver things began to fall into place for us to move. I found out about some incredible tuition payment programs at various Chicago Hospitals. It seemed like after we were back home, Chicago started popping up everywhere -in news, on TV, in conversations. Synchronicity is a funny thing when you see it happen in your life. Strangest example- One of the TV stations at work is based out of Chicago and actually shows the Chicago 7pm news here in Denver. I have worked at my job for 2 years and never noticed!
I am not sure exactly when the decision to move happened. I think we both agreed it was a step in the right direction for us. We are definitely excited about the move and will show some apartment pictures in the next posting.
