1 year

We’ve just passed our one-year anniversary of moving back to the States. We flew out of Edinburgh on 26 July and moved into our apartment in Pasadena on the 31st. The year has really flown by, although it does feel like we’ve been here for quite some time (I guess being pregnant makes the time more of a reality as it feels like I’ve been pregnant forever almost). :)

We haven’t traveled nearly as much as we did in a similar time frame in Scotland. But we have been receiving paychecks, which is always a plus! Bryce has made much progress in preaching and general pastoral duties, while my PhD has not, but teaching has. We have acquired a dog, a dining room table and soon, a baby. I guess we’re becoming proper adults.

    It still just seems like yesterday when I was dropping wine gums on you as you left our flat for the last time, or 24 nights with a projector in you living room.

    I would call you both jerks for leaving us, but I like you both too much to call yous that. :-)

    I know, I can’t believe it’s been a year since we last saw you guys. I loved living close to the Urminskys. I hope we can see you in October. Can you email me (or comment) the dates you’ll be in Canada?

    So, is it weird being back in California after living in Scotland for so long? I often wondered what made you come back… :) What a beautiful place Scotland seemed to be! Mike and I are going to go there either next year or the year after. When we decide I will be sure to get in contact with you about where to go, and more importantly, where *not* to go. :)
