New Zealand!

North Island.  We'll be living South of Hamilton.

Our new home.  A lot of land, big trees and sheep.

So the word is out (or starting to get out I hear) that the Watson family is packing their bags and heading south, VERY far south to almost the end of the earth to live in New Zealand.  It is true!  Cordell has an opportunity to work in New Zealand in a small town as their Doctor for a few short months.  Short enough for us to be able to return back to our life here in California pretty easily but long enough for the kids to go to school there and get the full experience of New Zealand life.

We are really excited for this adventure and time to take our family to a new place, to learn a new culture and a new way of life.  It will be hard to leave some of our responsibilities and our lives here but this is a once in a lifetime opportunity that we feel blessed to be able to experience.

So I guess we'll see you all later.

First of all, are you serious! Second of all, that is amazing, what a great opportunity, I am a little jealous. Third of all, you will be missed! I might have to get a calender and mark off the days until you come back :)
