Falling into place...

Things are starting to fall into place! We found out that I cleared dental which is wonderful. I also called the placement office Thursday and they told me that by next week all of the medical documents will be on their desk for the FINAL REVIEW!!!! They have to know by May 21 if we've cleared medical in order for our project to leave on time. She also told me we're expected to leave in early July. This is more news then we knew before and it's exciting!

We sold the Jetta :( I have to admit- I really loved that car despite how annoyed I might have been with it at times! When the car
was driving away Will mentioned that it was bittersweet! So now I'm on my bike and feet for the next two weeks- which is fine by me as long as this weather stops acting up!

Will had a great time in Twin Falls with Troy FFA! One of the kids that he works with won job interview and is going to Nationals in October. He met a lot of potential employers and had a lot of fun networking and trying to find a place we might be interested in settling down in once we complete Peace Corps. I have a hard time thinking that we might settle down... Grad School is still in the future, but I have to admit I'm starting to get a little tired- maybe it's just because we're so close to graduating.


Graduation is May 10! Our announcements are done- just sitting on the table staring at me- I'll put them in the mail on Monday so that everyone gets one :) The final projects, book reports, and teaching lessons are coming up- it's so surreal that we're almost done. Seems like yesterday we drove to UI to begin our freshman year! Time sure flies but I know for a fact that Will and I wouldn't change it for the world.


The idea to visit Brandon and Jen in China is becoming more of a reality. We're talking about leaving June 3 and staying for a couple of weeks! Still looking at plane tickets and waiting for the price to go down. We'll visit our friends Annie and Steve Memorial Day weekend and do some backpacking at Olympic National Park! We have to be out of the apartment May 31- I dread the packing part but look forward to all these new adventures we're about to embark in.


Bye Bye my little Jetta
