Big Changes

2011 has defiantly brought us more changes than we anticipated.  During this spring, a good friend of ours let us know about an opening for a teaching position in the landscape architecture department at Oklahoma State University.  Nick has always talked about teaching, but we always thought it would be at the end of his career.  Nick sent in his portfolio and resume and we didn't really think much about it after that.  We got a call in May to let us know that the college wanted Nick to come up to interview for the position.  I was able to come up with him so that I could scout out the town.  The interview process took three days.  A week later, we had an offer.  Things moved pretty quickly from there.  We had another house hunting trip where we headed up to Stillwater to make an offer on a house.  We put our house on the market for a leasing contract and two days later got a SALES offer.  Everything went really smoothly and we really feel like the Lord has led and directed our path.  We were so sad to leave Texas.  It has been our home and an awesome place to call home for seven wonderful years.  We are looking forward to new adventures in Oklahoma.  Go Cowboys!
