It's official. We're moving to Arkansas on May 30th, 2009 to be closer to Hayley. And Walmart. But mostly Hayley.
We've wanted to do this for a while now--be closer to Hayley, not move to Arkansas--and a series of events that opened doors for us led us to believe that this was the time to do it.
I've taken a job at CJRW, an advertising agency in Springdale, Arkansas. Their biggest client is Tyson Chicken, but they also do work for the University of Arkansas and TGI Fridays packaged goods. So, buy them. I realize in the past I've asked you to purchase Buicks, lease Fords, donate to Make a Wish, refinance with Quicken Loans and buy NFL Fatheads. But picking up some Tyson's nuggets in your local grocer's freezer seems most reasonable.
We'll be moving to a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment in Rogers, Arkansas. The apartment community is called The Greens at Blossom Way and it boasts ammenities like a 9-hole golf course, pools, sauna, tanning beds, full gym and fresh baked cookies daily. It was between Blossom Way and another apartment community run by super-southerners who said the community's best features were 2 muskrats and a family of geese that inhabit the area.
We'll be within 10 minutes of Hayley's school, Central Park Elementary of Bentonville, and about 15 to 20 minutes away from CJRW. Troy will be looking for positions when we arrive, and we've set the goal of buying a house before December so we can reap the tax benefit for first-time home buyers.
We can't wait for you to visit. Seriously, please visit. We'll take you to Walmart, buy you some nice... Walmart... stuff.
Bill & I were just talking about how incredible role models you 2 are as parents.
ReplyDeleteAnd buying your 1st home with a little help from Mr. Obama is a smart move you 2 won't regret.
Congrats on your new journey together!
Love, Aunt Tiff & Uncle Bill
What can we say except.....we'll miss you and are soooo proud of you both!

Hey Guys,
ReplyDeleteGrandpa Chuck always called people 'guys'. I feel so good about this is my spirit, I know so many blessings are to come. (Like finding a Bible teaching Church?)
Alice Walton is my kind of gal. Anyone who builds a formidable art collection with their billions is alright with me. Erin Hollis sometimes goes to Walmart twice a day, with Buggy in the blue cart.
We'll chopper some steaks into Rogers, AK and turn the Blossoms into a beach party.
Meg, do you have a new e-mail yet?
Uncle Bobby
Thanks, Guys, for the well wishes! We're so blessed to have such supportive families:) We love you guys and will update as often as possible!
ReplyDeleteI'll post our new address and phone number next week.
No new email address. Just meghanbusch@netscape.net! We move in (hopefully) on May 31st. Fingers crossed that our stuff will arrive then.
Love you guys!
Us
