Her first day at Kindergarten

Shelly started her first day with her new Kindergarten class this morning. I dropped her off at school because we only have 1 car right now while my truck gets a new engine put in it. Long story. I felt like a proud father taking their child to their first day of school. Neither one of us cried so that was different than taking a child.

We spent most of the day on Saturday getting her classroom ready. It looks really good and seems to be ready to handle the children. This is a tough transition for them and I ask that you pray for them and Shelly as they get to know each other over the next two weeks before Christmas break.

I am still searching for a job. I have two good leads; one permanent and one interim. I am about to start making some more phone calls in a minute to see what else I can find.

A good day

Yesterday was a good day in the hunt for a job. I got some positive leads which made the day seem productive.

Shelly went to Kenrose this morning to familiarize herself with the school, her classroom, the staff and the kids in her class. I know she is excited about it. We will go to the Central Office this afternoon to sign all her papers and make her official.

Hopefully we will have some good news about my job in the near future. Stay warm...have a great day!

We are home

Shelly and I have moved back to the States. Our job in Honduras was complete and it was time to move back to Tennessee to start the next "adventure" in our lives.

We do have new cell phone numbers and email address so please make note of those below in your address books.

Shelly

We are currently living with Shelly's parents in Brentwood off Concord Road. Shelly will start her Kindergarten teaching position at Kenrose Elementary in Williamson County on December 8th. I am looking around for a job. Once we get settled with those, we will look for a place to live.

We ask for your prayers as we transition. We are in a reverse culture shock right now being in the States. It is taking time to get back in the groove. We will keep up our blog...hopefully better than the last few months. It has been EXTREMELY busy.

Thanks for your support of us. We will talk to you again soon...or see you face to face!

Let Your Light Shine!
