Sarah and I have decided to that I shall accept an offer of employment from H.T. Engineering (my father's gas and oil pipeline engineering and consulting company) in Grand Rapids, MI. We asked Alex for some input during the process, but he just smiled really big and some drool came out of the corner of his mouth.
I had to turn down several very attractive offers for Naval Architecture positions in Washington, DC, but the chance to live near family and old friends and work for my Dad was too good to pass up. We're definitely sad that we won't be going back to our friends in DC though. It's been a hard decision to make, but we're thankful for all the options that we had.
We're now in the process of settling in; we just bought a Scion xB, and we're starting to look for a house. We're still missing Adelaide and all our friends from Holy Trinity and GCA. We're going to call you guys once we get settled in. Please keep praying for us, there are still a lot of fairly big decisions we have to make. God bless.

Family is important. Best of wishes for you guys. Keep us posted. I've missed the regular updates.
Hey Coop,
We miss you guys too, especially going for our MTB rides. Glad you have found a job. I'm finding it a bit hard. You would think working on the AWD project, I would find something...oh well.
Ethan is doing well and getting his own personality...funny little bloke. Sophia has lost her bottom two teeth.
Speak to you soon
