A couple of months ago when we moved to my parents house, I said that I was refusing to blog about why we were moving until we had a happier ending. Well, we have our happy ending, finally!!
So here is the whole story. Back in April the company Brandon was working for told him they wanted to hire him full time but he had to wait about a month. When the end of that month came they kept putting off. Then finally we were told that they had implemented a hiring freeze and they couldn't hire him. He was told that he could work there part time until he found something else. That is when we decided to move in with my parents. Then in the middle of September we were told that there was not enough work to do because they had finished the game they were working on and the next one wasn't ready yet. They gave him 3 weeks and then he was done. His last day there was October 1. On the 23th of September he got an email from Blue Sky(Ice Age, Horton Hears a Who) They were interested and wanted to to a phone interview. The Monday after that they said they wanted him to fly and meet everyone. He left on Thursday the 4th and came home on Friday the 5th. They said it would take about a week to hear from them.
Well, this morning we got the call and the offer! This afternoon we accepted it! They wanted us to come as soon as possible, but no later than November 3rd. Well, I just can't leave before the Butterfield Halloween party so we will be moving to Connecticut on October 28th, the day after the party. We are so excited for this opportunity, I have never been so sad and so happy at the same time. It is so far away, but we can't wait! Thank you so much to everyone for all of your support and prayers! We love you all!
