So, I have something to tell you. It's kinda big and it is very very exciting for us.
Do you want to guess? No... I'm not pregnant :p
I'll tell you. We are moving to the UK!
My lovely hubby has been offered a marvellous position in Birmingham and we are all thrilled to bits about this new family adventure! It has been an incredible (in every sense of the word!) journey so far and we are delighted to be able to finally share this news with you :)
I'm sure it probably explains a few things :) Of course I'll still be around in this space, but there will be a little less making and a little more packing and bearing finding...
So, what do you know about Birmingham or the UK or Europe that would be handy to know or great to visit? Any bloggers close-by? Any tips, tricks or pointers gratefully accepted!
I hope you haven't choked on your cup of tea... :) And I'll make sure there is a fresh pot on if you should ever find yourself in our new neck of the woods!

Wow! That's a big move! I'm looking forward to seeing all the new scenery on your blog. The only thing I know about Birmingham is that Fox News doesn't know squat about it but opines anyways :) #foxnewsfacts
ReplyDeleteI'm so so excited for you all - what an incredible adventure. I can't wait to see all the good things that 2015 has in store for you in your new part of the world xx
ReplyDeleteExciting! We have just come back from a 6 month stint in Prague, which was pretty good. The flights, and resulting jet lagged kids were a bit miserable, but that passes pretty quickly really. Enjoy your big adventure!
ReplyDeleteSo excited for you and your family Leonie! I'm sure you're bound to make many new bloggy IRL friends from that part of the world.....who wouldn't want to be friends with you! You are just the nicest, bubbliest and caring lady I know! We shall miss you xxx
ReplyDeleteBig hugs to you and your sweet girls (never met your hubby, but I'm sure you can give him your own hugs :-) what an adventure! I hope you do keep up with your blog, so we can stay in touch.
ReplyDeleteOh wow! That is so exciting. It will be an amazing adventure. We moved back from the UK 6 years ago - so if you want to know anything about schooling or anything else for that matter just drop me an email. Birmingham is really diverse, you will love it. Elaina xo
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited for you and your family! I can't wait to see all the blog posts about everything you get up to! Birmingham doesn't know how lucky it is to have you! xxx
ReplyDeleteWow ....what a journey and a new adventure to look forward to ...cant wait to see where it all takes you. xxxx
ReplyDeleteWohoo!! The great adventure begins - that is wonderful news for you all and I'm sure it will bring you closer as a family and broaden all your experiences as individuals. So cool. Can't wait to see the photos xxxx
ReplyDeleteIt will be the best thing you will ever do! Go wide and far in weekends.. ooh all the little villages - but Birmingham will have you busy for while alone. We have lived in 3 countries and I wish, wish we went again, but with kids in the higher classes of high school, it gets a bit tricky! Enjoy every bit!
ReplyDeleteSo pleased for you my lovely friend. Remember your new motto: NDN! And inhale some complan xox
ReplyDeleteWow - you sound very excited, what great news! I hope everything goes well in your packing and sorting and arranging for your brand new adventure!!
ReplyDeleteHi Leonie. I travel across to Birmingham every year for the Festival of Quilts which is on in August in the NEC. Best of luck with the move.
ReplyDeleteWow, how wonderful is that! Many exciting adventures coming your way, especially with Europe soon to be so close! White Christmases! So many good things.
ReplyDeleteWow, how very exciting for you and your family! I hope the move goes really well and that you will all settle in to life overseas quickly. What a wonderful opportunity - with so much to see and do in the UK, I will look forward to reading about your adventures!

ReplyDeletewow - how exciting! I was born in Birmingham and lived there until I was 9. We visited last summer - I think the Cadbury chocolate factory was the highlight!

ReplyDeleteoo I missed your news!! hope you are having an easy settling in
ReplyDeleteHi Leonie, I have just popped in for a visit and a long read up. I missed this! I don't know many other bloggers but you were one person I had hoped to meet one day- that might still happen- you never know! You are so brave to move so far away. Your girls look like they've coped so well with all of the changes. I'm looking forward to following you on your new adventure, so as you said 'I'll be back' : )
