Hittin' it outta the park in.....


Chicago! That's what Chris is doing as of late.

Within the last week Chris has officially moved to Chicago, interviewed and accepted a position with IBM and also secured an apartment - all this while also visiting relatives and friends in the area. Whew! I'm tired just writing about it.

The funny thing about Chris moving to Chicago is that even though it's not where he grew up, it's like going home. Both sides of the family are based in Hammond, Indiana - right outside of Chicago, so he'll never be alone on holidays. I think the only bittersweet part of this is Mike, Angela and Nathan living in Florida. Nathan is growing up so quick and both Chris and Robert & I are missing out on some really fun times with him.

A job with IBM?! That's a wonderful entry on anyone's resume. Chris will spend the next few months in training and three of those weeks are here in Atlanta.

The apartment sounds wonderful too. He and a friend will be sharing a two bedroom apartment on N. Broadway, four blocks away from Wrigley field. Hardwood floors, fireplace and lots of closet space make this one a real deal. I can't wait to see pictures, how about you?
