Cam the man CONGRATULATIONS!

Congratulations Cameron Jon!! He nailed the position he wanted in Palo Alto, Cali with his company!  He actually leaves the burgh one day before we do. Plus Sarah will be driving cross country with him from Chicago on, and they get to spend one night with Ash & Paul so Sarah can  finally meet them in the flesh!!

We are sure going to miss our incredible son as it's been a memorable year enjoying his upbeat, motivated, cheerful, thoughtful, cleaver self!  It has been such fun meeting up with him for dinner and movies, as well as adventures in Utah and Florida.  This has been a very unique experience for him to be able to move back home to Pittsburgh for his career in finance; he has excelled in his field and thoroughly enjoyed his workplace team.  But with the love of his life wrapping up her degree in California it was time to move on so they can continue to make their eternal plans together.  

We are very excited for him and all of his future plans!! What a dream come true living closer to Sarah and in the state where he has longed to be.  So many longed for prayers have been answered for our entire family; words cannot express how very moved I am by all of this.

PS ROAD TRIPS for us all along the California coast in route to visit with our kidlets! :)

Lovely birthday Mrs. Nerdin!

Facebook post ... HAPPY BIRTHDAY my precious daughter and dearest eternal friend! You have brought so much joy into our lives! So many fond memories of raising and loving you our sweet, darling super star! Seeing you grow up to become such a magnificent, loving, caring, brilliant, creative, articulate, stunning, spiritual, thoughtful, devoted, wildly talented woman - so beautiful inside and out - has been a great thrill sweetheart. Daddy and I chose you in Heaven to be our baby doll and our hearts are knitted together with silver threads of love as I like to say. What an interesting journey thus far; it will be extraordinary seeing what you achieve as a loving, devoted, passionate wife, mother, and mentor to countless children in the years to come through your teaching and love of music. Paul and Connor along with all of us are richly blessed to have you in our lives! Enjoy this special celebratory day and when we move out in a few weeks we will all go out and celebrate big time together!! xoxo Ashley babe   PS  Love your two beaus giving you the Cinderella treatment on your evening out; beautiful pink roses and all :)  Also, the darling birthday cards your students drew for you - even your music cart lol :)
