Eric Got A JOB!!

Just a quick update on Eric... he turned his application in yesterday & got a call a half hour later last night. This morning he set up an interview & a half hour after the interview he got the job offer! He will be teaching 8th grade Algebra & Pre-Algebra. He is "happy happy"... that's what he said. He starts working August 13th... so no more chilaxin' at the home base by himself :) He said he won't miss it anymore... but I think he will.

Love to everyone,
JeN

Last article we moved into our new Uhaul... it was HOT that day!

We're Almost Settled In :)

Hey everyone! We are finally almost settled in and getting comfortable. I am posting some pictures from our move out here and where I work. I am working four 10 hour days with Tuesdays off... which I have to say I enjoy getting paid for working, it feels good to be graduated and working. On the weekends we have been going to all the state parks and Mt. Rainer discovering the mountains and trails. I just got a bike last week and Eric's bike is supposed to come in tomorrow. We are planning on going on a bike trip this weekend :)

Eric spends his day completing paperwork and applications for school districts to work at here in the Puyallup area. Other than that, he is discovering all the disc golf courses and relaxing A LOT! He will start working the first week of September, and is also looking to start working towards his Masters degree in Business or School Admin.

We really like the scenary with Mt. Rainer in our back yard, but we haven't been able to take any real great pics since we don't currently have a camera, only have our phones.

We also went to a Baha'i Feast a couple of weeks ago, and really enjoyed meeting some Baha'is that live near us.

But mostly we are relaxing together traveling around the area, and of course getting a lot of disc golf games in & working out.

We miss everyone dearly... it is definitely hard to be away from everyone. Love you. JeN & aarikc

Pictures are of my work, the picture with me is in Tacoma, Puget Sound... we went there after my work one day & Eric on the Rocky mountains.

We have more pictures of the area... we will add them soon.

Beginning of a new Beginning

I finally joined this sight to keep our family & friends updated with our lives...

We will be moving to Seattle at the end of June (June 20th is our projected date of departure)
I graduated finally from PT school... now I am Dr. McGowan :)

I have a job set up for me to start on June 30 @ Olympic Sports & Spine Rehab in Puyallup, WA, south of Seattle close to Mount Rainer. Eric is starting to research teaching jobs out there or possibly other job opportunities.

We mainly are moving to Seattle for advancing my career & to discover a new part of this country with its culture/people/environment & focus on building & securing the foundation of our relationship.

I will probably not write much until we get ready to move to Seattle, and then when we are there I will for sure be keeping this updated:)
Much love,
JeN
