It is really happening!

Long story very short (Long version coming soon)

In October of 2011 Josh had a conversation with his former principal, Kelly, regarding the time Kelly and his family had spent living in Saudi Arabia.  Not sure why, but Josh and I decided it would be a fun adventure.  Now, almost a year and a half later, Josh has been offered a teaching job at the Abqaiq school.

We have gotten A LOT of questions so here is my quick attempt to answer a few of them:

Are you crazy?   YES!

When do you leave?  We will need to be there sometime in the middle of August.

How long will you be there?  Anywhere between one day and twenty seven years.

What are you doing with your house?  Probably selling it.  It's a beautiful house...anyone wanna buy it?

Will you have to cover your head?  No.  When I am on the compound I will dress the same as I do now (although not in quite so many layers).  When we go into the Kingdom I will wear an abaya (long black dress) over my clothes.

And for my favorite Llewellyn cousins...  Will you miss the 24th of July?  We get to come home every July!!!

Lots more details coming soon!
