Texas Y'all

After much speculation, gossip, and innuendo, Jim's company today announced that his position will be relocated to Houston, Texas after the first of next year. We have been anticipating this news, and, with the economy being the way it is, are very happy that they want to keep Jim in their employment, as many of his coworkers are simply being "transitioned out." His company offers wonderful benefits, and since he has been with them for almost 30 years, he has accrued lots of vacation time as well. It wasn't a very difficult decision, therefore, to accept the job transfer, and we are actually even becoming a little excited. Jim's plan is to rent an apartment in Houston, and Jacob and I will split our time between Michigan and Texas. Adam will do his own thing, but I'm sure he will want to visit the Lone Star State as often as possible. We intend to get a two or three bedroom place down there, so hopefully friends and family will feel free to drop in anytime and stay a spell.
