We are excited to announce that the last few months (following our annual Christmas letter) we have recieved a couple pieces of exciting news... and so it is time to share it with all of you! As Cole has been finding himself more and more burnt in his current career path and seeking something fresh and a new challenge, we learned that God has opened a door for just such a thing. Many hours were spent over about a six month (or more) period last year of Cole working on putting together his packet to apply for a program that will send him to get his masters for two years, followed by a three year assignment to instruct at West Point. Long story short, we found out a couple weeks ago that Cole was selected for this assignment!!!
I'm soproud of him for all the hard work put into it and so excited to see his dream fullfilled. I remember standing with him before his commissioning ceremony after graduation looking back across the parade field and him talking/dreaming about being back there to instruct. We are looking forward to this light at the end of the coming deployment and the fresh change it will give Cole, the new challenge, and some time for him to be with our family. I'm personally excited to get Sierra all dressed up and send her off to a ball with her daddy!
Here are just a few shots of some of the good memories West Point has provided in the past and here's to some more in the future!
And our second bit of our latest news... we will have a fourth family member joining our journey! We are expecting our second little one the end of August!!!
