Not displaced Midwesterns for long...


Yes, as many of you guessed, we are moving back to our home state of Michigan. Grand Rapids, to be exact. Jonathan has accepted a position as the Vice President of Leasing for Encore Development Group and will be starting August 1st. Things are moving surprisingly fast. We bought a house last week. Sold one tonight.

As excited as we are to be moving back home and close to our families, leaving Pittsburgh will be very hard. We will dearly miss our friends here and have lots of visits back here already planned. But we are looking forward to improving our Michigan accents (no yinzers here) and we will only be a ferry ride away from our dear Milwaukee!

Congratulations to all of you! Jonathan's definitely moving on up and that's awesome! So happy for all of you! I know your family is thrilled to have you back so close. I miss our homestate... :(

No one is happier about your move than Grandma and Grandpa in Berrien Springs! We are looking forward to visiting you in Grand Rapids and stealing those little girls for some good old-fashioned spoiling! We can't wait! Pittsburgh's loss is definitely Michigan's gain!

What is a yinzer?

Glad you're getting to move back home. As much as we loved Milwaukee, NC is my home and the place I hope to raise my own kiddos.. I mean, they have to perfect the correct usage of "ya'll" or they will be disowned!

ha!
