Moving Forward

Matthew has served in the US Army for ten years, fourteen if you count his time at West Point.  That journey is coming to a close or at least changing pace. In just eight weeks we will begin moving the family from Fort Hood, Texas to Tulsa, Oklahoma where we will begin a new chapter in our life.

Matthew has accepted a job offer with Oneok, a large energy company who deals with natural gas.  Matthew will be working in project management as an operational engineer overseeing pipe lines going in the US and Canada. His degrees in engineering will finally be put to the test.

In March, Matthew was promoted to Major.  His accomplishments in the military are great and this title certainly goes well deserved.  He will continue to serve in the military as a reservist.  It will be a huge change from what we know as military life, still, it is nice knowing we aren't completely pulling the plug!

We have enjoyed (its true!) our time serving.  We have met so many people and have gotten to see much of the country.  Much has been learned along the way and we will always treasure this season of our life.

We are eager to see what God has in store for us next.  It's a leap of faith.  And we trust that each adventure God has for us is all part of a much bigger purpose.

We will keep you updated!
