This picture is totally unrelated to our announcement but I had to share it some time. Gotta love the bug eyed little girl.
After several months of denial and job searching we have decided that we will be moving back to Anchorage. Its not that we don't love living in Ketchikan. The prospect of actually getting a job that either of us consider a career is much greater in Anchorage than in Ketchikan. So we will be moving out of our apartment to house sit for my grandparents for six weeks then we will be packing up and moving around the middle of March. There is a possibility that I will be getting a job before then but we will see how it goes. Once we finally move we will be living with... you guessed it... my ever loving parents who are happy to house their bum children with families in tow while they get settled.
For our friends in Ketchikan we have a couple more months to kick it in K-town. As fun filled as the coming months will be we will be sad to leave the life we had started here. At the same time we are also excited for the sweeping changes that moving north can bring. We feel that we have been stagnating as we have fruitlessly attempted to commit to living in Ketchikan. We will be seeing most of you before we leave but we hope that you will come and visit us up north some time. My parents have a large house and I'm sure they more than welcome the guests. Just remember that unless you feel like skiing summers are the time to visit.
We are grateful for all of our friends and family that will be helping us in the coming months.
Ian, out.
Peace.
This public service announcement brought to you by the number 7 and the letter Z.

The eyes are wonderful that picture made my day
Although you probably already know it, I just have to say. I'm so sad to see you leave Ketchikan. My hope is that I'll learn better ways to be an 'away grandma.'
