Where are we going?

So that is the question that C and I get on a daily basis. Do we know the answer? No. Do we know what they are pushing for? Yes, Colorado Springs.
Here is the low down.....
Originally we were going to Tulsa. We were happy. Not because of Tulsa but because of the awesome and amazing concept. Would we leave Tulsa if we had a chance in the future? In a heart beat.
Then the Springs came up. Asked us if we were at all interested. Oh my goodness, we about passed out. We were more than interested. There is no comparison between the town towns.

In Tulsa, we know the location. It isn't the best but isn't the worst. There is a lot of traffic in the area so it will pull a lot of people. It will sit near a rough Ross and a terrible Burlington Coat factory. Maybe they will rebuild the area is our hopes. MOST of the popular dining is on the other side of the mall...I think it will over well in Tulsa but it will need marketing. I know a two concepts close to there that struggle because they are at the end of the dining row.
The Springs. New, outdoor mall, beautiful and clean area. It is much like Centerra in Loveland. All the dining places drew a crowd. It was always busy and Holidays were nuts. The Restaurants just had to open and people came in. There are two sites here. We'll call site A and site B. We want site A for site B price. Nothing fancy, just real estate. Everyone wants a deal right? The cost of stuff in Colorado is much higher than Oklahoma but that is expected.

So..for now, we are in DFW and enjoying it. HG loves school and we are enjoying the area. How long will we be here? No idea. Are we in a rush to get out? No, not really. We would LOVE to be settled because moving and still living out of storage is rough but don't want to make the wrong decision. We are really holding out and hoping for God to direct us as to where we are supposed to go. We *think* he was showing us by C's boss asking about the Springs. We've always said we'd move back to Colorado in a heart beat. It is the end of the world if we don't go? Of course not, home is where our family is. We make the best of it and always have. I can't think of another person who has moved around like us. It's coming to an end and it is exciting.
