For those who don't know, we made a recent move to Lake Jackson, Texas over the past couple weeks. Jeremy accepted a tenure-track teaching position at Brazosport College teaching English. He was confirmed on August 8th and by the 24th we were all here.
It was very hard to say goodbye to our friends and family and go.
From our last playgroup:
Our last concert in the quad at OSU:
Last trip to Wacky Bounce:
Last time swimming with friends:
After Jeremy left with the moving van, I got the apartment cleaned and we spent a few days at his Aunt Ronda's house with Grandma Jurgens:
Maeby LOVED watching movies with our cousin Amanda (and I think Amanda enjoyed the company too)
Mostly she loved going on the daily outings with Katie and Ronda, especially when we went to the Portland Zoo:
Nana (my mom) flew to Portland from North Carolina and the next day she, the girls and I flew to Texas where she spent about 10 days helping us get unpacked, moved in and organized.
We're slowly getting used to being in such a different part of the country. We miss the Pacific Northwest and hope to return in the not too distant future. Its hard to not be able to go to the park because its either too hot or there are alligators (yes, really. Jeremy has seen a few already) not to mention the fire ants and various poisonous snakes. We're slowly meeting people and trying to make friends. So far its been a difficult adjustment but we're making it. It is quite green a pretty here though and its fun that the coast is only 20 minutes away where we can see dolphins swimming and find lots of cool looking seashells. We LOVE having a pool in our apartment complex and have been in it most days. We'll post more pictures of where we live soon.
