Moving (again)

My peoples,Erin and I have some news for you. Rather than stress and worry about who to tell when and in what order, we’ve decided to write you all.

Long story short: we’re moving! (shocking, right?)In a nut shell, my job has required me more and more to be in San Francisco. As our company has grown, the San Francisco office has grown large, while the office I’m at in Santa Monica has gotten smaller and smaller. Because most of the work that I do requires me to be in San Francisco, I’ve had to drastically increase my travel up there — sometimes up there every other week. This travel schedule has taken its toll on our little family. This past trip, I missed Ava’s first words (“da da”). The trip before, I missed the first time she crawled and her first teeth. Erin and I seem to catch up only through email and the occasional phone call. Frankly, the idea of continuing this pattern in the months to come is simply not an option for us.

So, we’re moving to San Francisco in January.Obviously, there are some big drawbacks to moving: primarily leaving behind both our extended families in San Diego and also our tight group of friends in Los Angeles. However, keeping our little family together more often is top priority for us. We do plan to make frequent trips back to San Diego to see everyone.

Well, I guess that’s about it. We’ve put a lot of time and thought into this decision and we’re ready to make the jump into a new life in a new city. We now request your love/support/prayers for us as we venture off to a city neither of us know very well. We’re very excited for this new chapter in our lives in such an amazing and vibrant city. Stay connected with us online (Skype/Twitter/Facebook) — we’ll make sure to send you plenty of updates.Love,
J, E & a
