Embarrassed isn't quite the right word to describe how I, Jen, feel about how long it has been since we've updated our blog. However, circumstances in our lives have changed pretty dramatically since our last post, nearly 6 months ago and I'm fairly confident that I will be updating our blog much more frequently.
For now, I'll give you a quick re-cap of the last 6 months and share some recent Esther pics with you.
As you know, Cory and I moved to Korea shortly after getting married in 2007. We just finished our 5th year there, and it became very clearly to us that it was time for us to leave. And now we are settling down in Bakersfield, CA. Obviously there are a lot of missing details, but perhaps some of those can be shared another time.
Within a week of deciding we would not be returning to Korea for another school year Cory found another job doing IT Support here in Bakersfield. He's been there about 3 weeks now and seems to like it pretty well so far. It is also allowing me to stay HOME with Esther. We'd like to expand our family, we'll keep you posted. I'd also like to pursue my Masters in Administration, but for now that's kind of on the back burner. I'm trying to learn how to be a wife and mother while NOT working full time, and that will be an adjustment, I'm sure.
I've got lots of pictures from the summer to share, but we are now working out of boxes and suitcases, so getting organized is taking some time. I've never been on the West Coast before but am looking forward to settling down stateside for a while. Cory has a brother, sister in law, a nephew and a niece here which is really nice. The rest of the family is hours away, but still SO much closer than we've been! This summer marks 10 years for me being out of the continental US, so I am preparing for some culture shock!
Keep an eye out - I plan to update on a weekly basis. We'll see how that goes!
