New Job!

After interviewing with several companies, Matt has decided to accept a position at ClearEdge Power, a fuel cell company in Hillsboro. Matt will be staying with my parents to reduce costs until I finish school and we sell the house here. We are not looking forward to living separately, but are excited that Matt was able to find a job that will allow him to continue working in an area that he really enjoys. Matt will start on September 15, so we have three weeks to finish the back/side yard, and to arrange all of our storage so that I can find things when I need them. School starts near the end of September for me, and I am looking forward to finishing my student teaching. We plan to spend a lot of time on the phone or iChatting so I can tell Matt how things go.

We are really looking forward to living on the west side. Finally. After 11 years. Uncle Chris was right (my mom's brother), when he said we would eventually find a way to get out here, that it would just take some time. We will miss our friends in Spokane, and the gorgeous country around us, but at least now we can convince them to visit on vacation so we can show them around the prettiest part of the PNW.
