Watch out world!!!

The much anticipated call finally came today, and Ben got his promotion! YAY! The only thing is that we are headed for Tennessee! That's right, the home of Davy Crockett, the Grand 'Ole Opry, and the Great Smoky Mountains! We are 90 percent excited and 10 percent scared spitless (yah, that 10 percent is ALL mine!) We are planning on a moving day of January 31st.

Amanda! When I saw you in Walmart the other day... I didn't expect you to move until the end of the semester! We Kings are sad to see you go. You are going to have a new adventure. Ashley King.

Holy crap! I knew you guys were serious, but so stink'n soon? And clear across the country! I know this is good, but man we are going to miss ya!

Joshua said...

Hah! Tennessee, I'm sure I'll be able to give you a world a corrections when you pick up that redneck talk down there. I can't wait. I'm pumped for you guys. This is so cool. Tennessee, Nebraska, Hong Kong, and Utah. Not the type of places parents would say their kids live. But they work. Sweet!

Amanda - it is SO sad that you guys are leaving, but so great for you guys to have this adventure in your life. You have been such a great friend, and don't EVER forget me - keep in touch via blogs, email, phone, you know. Okay enough sappy talk. You are so funny, I caught up on your posts (since I haven't stalked your blog in a while) You always bring a smile to everyone's faces. I too am a pack rat and got such a kick out of that post. I have stuff from elementary school, and maybe even worse, have such a hard time throwing away anything Charly brings home. What on earth would she ever do with a paper that contained a pattern that she had to color? You got me, I just can't let go!!! We love you guys and wish you the best of luck and let us help anyway we can.

Call us if you need help moving stuff. I have a strong, strapping young man that I can lend you. :0) Todd wanted to tell Ben "congratulations". He knows you guys have been working hard for this promotion, so great job!!

Oh My GOSH! YAh! I can't WAIT TO COME AND VISIT YOU! Especially since I have family there already, it's definitely incentive to go! Congrats! Ben has worked SO hard for this. The Lord is taking you to a place where you will be SO happy. I just know it! We love you soo much!

Mike just got back from Memphis today, but the kids and I didn't get to go, so we will have to find a way to come visit you! Good luck and keep me posted! Congrats to Ben!
