Our Disappearance

Didn't realize it had been quite that long since our last post.  Our life took a few drastic turns over that past few months, and blogging never quite made it to the top of the priority list.  So, let me take you back for a quick trip through our lives since the last post in April...

During the flurry of woodworking at the beginning of April, I got a call from Lockheed Martin for a job interview.  Over the course of April, I received an offer for the position.  I then began work on May 9th.  My title is Mechanical Engineer and I am working with the Cargo Mission Contract 2 dealing with ISS hardware.  I am doing some work with 3D CAD modeling, some work with hardware processing, and a little of this and a little of that.

Our mortgage company was unwilling to work with us to stay in the house after we got the job offer, and so we have subsequently relocated.  We are now in a fantastic 1 bedroom apartment in League City where we don't have to do any of the upkeep and the blue is always blue!  Woot-woot!  We started the move on April 29th and threw in the towel May 4th.  We went from a 4-2-2 house to a 1-1-1 apartment and detached garage.  We have even managed to make everything fit!...mostly.

Finally, over the weekend of our anniversary, we made ourselves take a freakin' break.  We headed to Austin, TX for a weekend "Babymoon" for some R&R before the little guy gets here.  We had an amazing time, and I'll throw some pictures up and more details in a later post.

And, here we are.  Counting down the days until we get to meet our son!
