Tornado Alley, here we come!
We're moving to Kansas! I know, right? Kansas!! Chris has been offered a job with Fort Hays State University. The job is initially a one year temporary position, but they've made it clear that if they like him then he will be invited to stay permanently.
Kansas!
The town we are moving to is Hays, a historical little spot just about smack dab in the middle of the country. You all know Hays, although you don't know you know. Hays (back when it was Fort Hays) is the last stop the main character in "Dances with Wolves" makes before he ventures off into the frontier.
The LDS church is much smaller there than the last few places we've lived (China aside). For example, it will take us an hour and a half to drive to our stake center. It takes us 20 minutes now. We are fortunate that Hays has it's own LDS congregation, so that's good news. Hopefully there will be a decent sized Cub Scout troop.
It is a huge relief knowing that we have a job for next year, and that the job has potential for permanence. It has been such a trial on the kids to move once a year for the past three years. They've been troopers about it, and I feel we really do owe it to them to settle down for a few years.
It's a smallish town, but we'll soon make it home.
