New look, new name, same blog

 Closing the circle
We started the new year living in downtown Salt Lake City, planning our adventurous year ahead. Little did we know that we would end up back in SLC; Jake back at his old job and me...well, pregnant. From SLC -> Leiter, WY -> Portland -> and back...it's been a year full of traveling and since we haven't made it back to SLC yet, there's still a long trip ahead. We gave it a try (albeit a short one) to make a go in Portland but after hearing time and time again of how bad the job market is here in PDX and not hearing back from any of the places we submitted applications/resumes I started getting antsy. I wanted some stability, a place that was ours, and a way of supporting ourselves... and it didn't look like that was going to happen any time soon so we decided to start looking into jobs in SLC as well as Portland. As soon as Jake's old work heard that he was looking into Salt Lake they had a job available for him. Although we were just starting to get used to Oregon and were enjoying being around my sister and her kids, finally hearing a job offer was something we couldn't turn down. So...here we are, moving back to Utah this weekend, and closing the circle of our journeys this year...as far as we know...
