She's finally here!


The much anticipated birth of my best friend Jenny's baby has finally arrived. Cailyn Rose was born June 23rd, she weighed 6 pounds 6 ounces and was 19 3/4 inches long! I am a very proud "aunt" She is perfect and I am looking forward to spending a lot of time with this precious little girl (and Jenny & Ryan) before I leave in July.

Cali here I come!



It's official, at 5am on July 15th I will be setting out for Pasadena, California to begin my training with ESI. I will be in Pasadena for about 5 weeks doing TEFL(teaching english as a foreign language) training and team building before heading over to Prague. We will be staying on the campus of William Carey International University.
I am so excited that it is getting so close to the time for me to leave. Of course I will miss everyone I am leaving in Wisconsin, but I can't wait to see how the LORD is working in the Czech Republic.

World Cup

If you get a chance, check out the United States first world cup match up tomorrow at 11am. I am pretty sure the game is on ESPN 2. The US is playing the CZECH REPUBLIC! I am torn as to who to root for, my homeland, or the country that will be my "homeland" for the next year. Hmmm! We'll see.
