Here's the long and short of what we know. Rob will be recruiting in Dearborn Michigan. We will be there 3 years. We received our orders (still waiting on welcome package) last Tuesday, and have been very busy ever since. As the traditional Navy way..they put us in a time crunch! We have 60 days from last Tuesday to move and report! Rob will be attending a school in Pennsacola Florida for a little bit over 38 days. This will teach him how to become the "salesman" he needs to be to recruit.
Our house is on the market as of mid February. There has been a few people come by, but not many. Time to step up our game plan! We have set up Open Houses until the week we are to leave in hopes to sell this place. As for what happens if we can't sell, we are still working o the kinks on that one. Hoping to meet with Navy Federal this week to discuss options either way. If you know anyone who's looking, we're listed with Century 21.
Now back to the other info. We're still not sure how we plan to move out stuff. Also on the list of places to go this week. We will try to meet with the moving people in Norfolk to discuss our options. I have been in contact with a realtor in Michigan. So the house search on that side is already in commence. (got mom doing drive by's and peeking in windows! Ha!) The hope is we can find something there fairly soon. Which brings me to our very long list of dates. In case you want to keep up with us, here's the dates we have planned for almost everything as it will be very hectic for a little bit...

**During all the school etc, I will stay with my parents and keep on with the house search if nothing pops up earlier for us! So this is the breakdown somewhat with what is going on with us for the next few months. Be patient with us as this is very new to us and kinda hard to straighten out! I just wanted to keep everyone informed of the events going on as of now. If more news pops up, I'll be sure to let you know! See most of you very soon! And for those we are leaving behind, you will be missed!
