Anna's Going AWAY! Come wish her well ....

***Blogger is having problems with photos right now, so sorry for the all text posts. I guess they're working on it...***


Howdy y'all! You're invited to our PIONEER PARTY
:

BARBER HOME IN NEWCASTLE
1430 Kentucky Greens Way

Sunday July 30th

LUNCH AT 1 p.m.

916-663-3518

We know this is late notice but we'd like to invite you to our home this coming Sunday afternoon for lunch – and to wish Anna well as she heads out on a great adventure!

As you know, our family is in the process of relocating to Austin. Our home is up for sale and Michael & Sharon plan to put theirs on the market this fall. Paul & Jess will make the move when it works out best with Paul's nursing schooling.

Anna recently decided to quit managing at Black Angus because the hours were just too long and she was tired of missing out on all the holidays and family get-togethers. After a couple of weeks off to rest she began thinking about a new job. She decided that it didn't make much sense to start a new job here when it was possible she would be moving to Austin in the next several months.

So she has decided to be adventurous and head on out to Texas on her own! She is going to load up as much as she can in her car and this coming Tuesday she will hit the road, with Jess along for help and companionship. They will make it to Austin in three days and then will find Anna a small apartment close to the University. She'll then begin looking for a job. Jess will fly home the following week, after having a chance to get acquainted with the area. By the way, Michael and Sharon just returned from spending a week there and they loved it! You can check out their comments and pictures at http://michaelandsharon.blogspot.com.

All this seems kind of sudden, but Anna wanted to get settled before college starts so she can get a jump on a job before all the students arrive back.

The get-together here will start around 1 p.m. – we'll eat by 1:30 . Bring a swimsuit if you'd like to swim, and lawn chairs if you'd like. (We sold most of our outdoor stuff at our yard sale!).

Please let us know if you can come by this Friday – July 28th so we'll know how much food to prepare.

Hoping you all can make it!! We know Anna would love to see everyone…

Dave & Karen
