When we first got here, we made a 'to do' list of things/goals we wanted to accomplish, and believe it or not, we did just about all of them!
1. We paid off our credit cards! YES!
2. Gordon finished 3 more online classes!
3. AND, Gordon even tested out of some Portuguese classes for even more credits, allowing him to graduate this April!! WOO HOO!
4. I got a job and helped pay off the visas and build up our savings....a little.
5. I ran my first half marathon! I still can't believe I did it, but I did!
6. We had lots and lots of fun! (Yes, that was on our list!)
We have loved our time here and are very grateful for the jobs which we have had as well as the generosity of the people here in Hood River, especially Gordon's parents who housed us and so generously watched Brooke!
When we were first deciding whether to come here or not, we felt ok about it. When we finally decided to come, things just fell into place! Our jobs, our finances...everything! We have felt that Heavenly Father has been watching out for us these past few months! We had a great time, but are looking forward to the last few months of college life!
Come the 26th, we are Rexburg bound! See you all soon!
