So I'm a slacker. I had good intentions (like always) of keeping the blog thing going a bit more regularly but didn't make the time for it. Since my last post life has gone on much as normal-internship, work, hanging out, etc. However we've also had some big developments in our lives.
First-I completed my Master's thesis, turned in my last assignments, and graduated with my Master's in School Counseling. Hooray! Three years-both long and short at the same time have passed by. I really enjoyed school but am definitely glad to be done. I won't miss all of the driving and wear & tear put on my truck.
Second-Brittany's teaching position was unfortunately cut for next school year. Even though this was her fourth year teaching she was the last in seniority for pe/health teachers. I've also run in to some dead ends for any jobs that might allow me to put my degree to use.
Third-So.....we are moving to Thailand! The short story is that our church helps support a children's home in Chiang Mai Thailand where we will be going to work with the kids and teach english to kindergarteners to help start a school. Kind of crazy but going overseas is something that we had talked about when we first got married. So because of some closed doors here we've decided to explore some open doors elsewhere. At this point we'll be just going on a short term basis which will put us out of the states from late June 09 to March 2010. We'll be starting a new blog that will give some more info about our new adventures and hopefully I'll be a bit more faithful in my blogging efforts :)
