Two posts in one week...what is going on?

We have officially been assigned to our onward assignment.

We are thrilled with our next assignment...huge geography props to those who know what nation this flag belongs to...anyone, anyone

I would insert the Jeopardy song here, but can't figure out how to do it. Oh well, imagine me humming it for you.

COLOMBIA...we are going to Bogota. We could not be more excited about this assignment. Bogota is a beautiful city with restaurants, movie theaters, malls, and other exciting things to do. Yeah, we will be in the same time zone again with our family and friends. After two years in Cameroon, we will definitely be ready for some first world comfort. We will spend about 10 months in Washington DC before heading to Bogota.

I will share more information about our next move, once we have more information. We are so happy about this and really appreciate everyone who kept (and keep) us in your prayers during our crazy adventure.

Until next time....

New Foreign Service Specialist - New Blog

Okay, so I am pretty new at this. I have been reading a lot of blogs to try and prepare for the FS life, but have finally made the decision to jump in and try out blogging for myself. 


For almost two years I have been waiting to read..."we have an offer for you in the next class." On Wednesday, I got that email. OMG...it's what I have wanted. Now what?  I am so excited and scared to death, all at the same time. We have spent all this time talking about what if it happens, and now we are kind of taken by surprise, that it actually has happened.


I want to tell the story of our adventures here, so stay tuned.
