Why the new blog?

Yippeee! Yesterday our family accepted an appointment to join the U.S. Foreign Service and the worldwide diplomatic community. I’m becoming a career diplomat, Foreign Service Officer and our family will 1st move to the D.C. area for training (for about a year or more) and then to different posts (embassies) throughout the world. We love, love, love the Denver area and have lived a lot of great places (yes we’re already gypsies!) and have met so many amazing friends and family (a.k.a. the neighbors of Mashie Circle and the Life Group of Calvary Baptist), so it will be difficult to leave the comforts of our suburban home and lifestyle for an “Address Unknown.” Follow the blog (subscribe to the posts by entering your e-mail on the right), strap on your seat belts, sit back and enjoy an adventure around the world with us. It’s bound to have lots of ups and downs, interesting times, trying times, scary times, happy times, dangerous times, and other times we can’t even fathom; but you’ll see, it’s all for a terrific cause of service to man and country. It’ll be a physical as well as spiritual journey and we can’t wait to get started with you! After all, let’s not forget, the quote by Roman author Pliny the Elder “Home is where your heart is!”
