Quick Update
Ahh. These past couple of weeks have been kinda crazy. Last week I worked on my photography skills, was a substitute teacher, receptionist, and truck driver! I flew out to Oklahoma and then drove a truck out to Wyoming and flew back to Provo. Twas fun to spend time with my fam and a few old friends.
We moved out of our apartment this weekend and our spending our last few days in Utah up in Danny's parents condo in the mountains. We are so thankful for our friends that have let us store all of our crap in their homes! We leave for China on Sunday! We'll be teaching at a trading school near the city of Chongqing. More updates to come.
