Long over due!

Hello friends, family, and bloggers! Well, we've been back for over a month now and have been absolutely enjoying our time home with friends and family. Oregon is so beautiful! We can't get over its natural beauty. We're living in Corvallis and I've decided not to take on the job in Eugene with Trips. I've had a couple other job offers since then, but we're really looking to get some work near by so we can stay here. We've got our place set up (renting for the time being). That's been a lot of fun to go through some of our bins we had tucked away...it was like Christmas all over again. Ender and Maya are doing great. Ender is back in school, and Maya is kicking it with Mom and Pop's. Camilla is our neighbor and what a neighbor she has been!! She totally rocks. This girl has done so much to help us out since we've moved here and we are so grateful to her and her family for their help. Not to mention, Ma and Pa Hale did a ton for us as well...so thank you, thank you, thank you. To our friends in Korea, if you're reading this, Chung-Su, would you send us and email (swooshj@yahoo.com) so we have your email address. As soon as we get our old computer up and running, we can call you using Skype! Miss you, talk to you soon :) Ender says "Hello, Moo_Oak." We made some new Korean friends here in our neighborhood. They're from Busan and they'll be here for a year. It's been fun sharing stories with them. Hope all is well with everyone out there. Our up dates will still be a bit sporadic until we get a new computer. Keep'n it real! Love the Hale's
