COLORADO, HERE WE COME!

I've been waiting to post this until I gave notice at work, etc., but our whole point in moving to DC was to get work experience so Tim could apply to graduate school. He would love to be an Economics professor and do research someday studying primarily International Development. He's decided to go to University of Colorado at Boulder. We went out there in April to check things out, and felt that that is going to be our new home for the next 5 years. We can't wait!

To celebrate, I threw a surprise party for him at work. He had no idea!

We made him choose hats like they do for football prospects.
His dad and brother, Scott came too
And here's his future home (away from home)...

Congratulations Tim! I'm so proud of you!

Ah, look at your cute party! You're such a good wife! We're excited for you guys too! Jon has a really good friend there right now- and he loves it.

Scott said...

Oh man! I wanted him to pick the South Carolina hat. I don't know any jokes about people from Colorado.

Amelia is right. You are a great wife. I don't think I have that much creativity. I am excited that you will be so much closer. Hopefully we'll get to see more of you.

Cute idea. You guys are so creative with all the fun stuff you do. It will be nice to have you closer, but Colorado is still not close enough...
