An Update

Just a quick update since there have been a lot of changes in the last few weeks.

Our lease for our apartment in Castle Rock is up at the end of the month. We've really enjoyed the year that we have spent here. Castle Rock is a fantastic quiet family community and we are really going to miss it.

Our plan is to move to the Boulder-Erie area so that David can be closer to his job and so he won't have to commute as much. Currently it is about an hour commute depending on traffic. It's a lot of time and a lot of gas!

Kellie was working at Messenger International but has recently left which means we no longer need to live in an area that is in between both of our jobs. Kellie was driving about 30 minutes south everyday and David was driving north on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays.

We are currently looking for a two bedroom apartment in the Longmont, Louisville, or Layfette areas. Housing is a little bit more reasonable in these towns then in Boulder. Erie is a 'bedroom' community without any apartments at the time and a townhome is too big for us. These areas will be about a 20 minute commute from Erie and Boulder. We want to be between the two towns since David works in offices in both places.

David's dad and stepmom, Rick and Kim, have been kind enough to open their home up to us during the transition. Since we still have not found an apartment and since our income levels are changing in the next month, we will be staying with them in Colorado Springs for the month of April. We are very lucky to have family so sweet. Hopefully they will be able to deal with us when we come back from Boulder/Erie grumpy because of the extra 45 minutes that has been added to the commute!
