A new twist in events in the Pedersen Saga..
As you all know we are coming home to our beautiful Boise Idaho in a week from now. We look forward to be with our children and relatives and to take care of a few family issues we have regarding the kids school and extra curriculum activities (Jake's driving school and girls) lol. Anyway, Brett has been in a down mood since he found out our time here was limited, we know how much he LOVES working here. Here he is appreciated and admire for the great job he is doing, he has started this call center from scratch and made it very successful, he loves the people working under him, supervisors and managers. He has made good friends at work, and everything about leaving is making him sad. A few weeks ago he went looking for a house or condo for us to purchase, I personally wanted no part on the deal. He found one that he liked a lot. At that time there were seven condos available, and he was talking about the possibility of moving back here, once again I didn't listen. Last Saturday, I asked him to take me to see them for the first time, and the unbelievable happened... I loved the house! It was perfect! They showed us a model home, and told us that there was only one left, all the others were sold. Oh my! should we buy one or not... we prayed, we went out to dinner and discussed the issue, and the more we talked about it, the more it made sense to buy it. That same day we went over and signed the papers.. we are paying cash for it, we have a new home being built here in Costa Rica, it's in a secure neighborhood, with 24 hr guards at the gate, the complex will have a pool, a work out room, playground, and much more... it's also within walking distance to our Mormon Temple, so nice. We are planning to make Costa Rica our permanent home, with Boise being our secondary home.
Brett has been offered his job back here in six month... as a matter of fact his boss wants him back as soon as possible, but six month is the soonest he could be back with HP here in Costa Rica. We also want to open up a business here.. We have plenty of ideas, and businesses thrive here, specially American businesses. On the other hand, if we come back to Boise and want nothing to do with Costa Rica, then we have made a great investment, since the house will sell for about 30k to 40k more after is done being built. No great risk. We have decided to leave all our stuff in storage here in Costa Rica to furnish our new place that will be done being build in October. We have more adventures to come and we are thrilled. People at HP Costa Rica are super excited to have Brett back as a general manager, and I'm excited about starting a new business. We will spent the next six months in Boise having a good time with our kids, and will take a Disney trip with them for sure.
Erica is having the time of her life, her new boyfriend Chase is here, her best friend Becky is here, and they love it here... we have great week planned for them. We'll be going to Manuel Antonio tomorrow for three days and that should be a blast, beaches, scuba diving, zip lines, tropical paradise, and our favorite, banana boat rides in the beach. I'll make sure to take pictures. Here are some pictures of our new place.
Here is our Condo ... looks sad now, but after its done it'll be a beauty.
We are having the workers change that little window into a bigger one.
Monday we go pick our tile, yeah!
