Off to the United Arab Emirates!

How it all started... being at a place in life to use the education and gifts God has given us and ready to grow our family with children, we started the job hunt. Over the years in Corvallis, we have appreciated and enjoyed the ability to teach in multiple schools, create beautiful friendships, grow and mature in the place God had us, and were extremely found of the Oregon topography! With that in mind we were looking for jobs in the local area.

During this search and while at a teacher fair, we ventured over to a booth looking for teachers to come to the United Arab Emirates.  We had a wonderful chat and interview, which was followed up with two job offers. After a month of deliberating and dreaming, we chose to go to go the land of flying carpets, racing camels, and opportunity.
Friends, Family, and the Beach!

 While preparing our minds and packing our luggage for our move overseas, we have enjoyed the time to connect with friends and family. When preparing to leave for a year, a special recognition happens... of how valuable our time (each moment) is with our loved ones!
