Dallas Texas

Brett just had an interview for a Post Doc position at South Western in Dallas Texas. He had a great time. He really likes all of people in the lab where he would be working and he thinks that he will be able to learn a lot from his new boss. The day after Brett returned home to Birmingham, Richard (the name of his new boss) emailed Brett and told him that they would love to hire Brett on in the lab. Richard knew that Brett had to finish graduation first, but he was happy to have us join them in Dallas ASAP. After some discussion and prayer, Brett and I decided that it would be wise to accept this offer. Everything about it seems really great. . .except for the location. I'm not thrilled to be so far away from family, I was hoping to be a little closer to either Virginia or Utah, but we've been surviving for the past 5 years, I suppose we'll be okay for a few more. The experience Brett will get will really make him more competitive in the job market and we might as well make these gradual steps while are family is still so young.

So now it is official . . . .
Dallas Texas, here we come. (in May :) )
