Um, So I Guess It's Been A While :)

Sorry we've been M.I.A. for a while, but we are still alive and well! Just thought we'd give a quick update. After 11 months, we finally left Thailand at the end of April. While I went back to the US, Jeff had to fly straight to Kuwait for another assignment. Jeff was supposed to be out there until September, so I snuck in a vacation to South Carolina to visit my parents, and then planned on heading to Kuwait to join him. However, as things go in this job, the assignment ended up changing. It took a few weeks to get him out of there, but after five weeks in Kuwait Jeff actually got to come home! He went into his office for the first time since January 2008 (and even back then it was only for one day!). We quickly found out we would be heading back to Doha, Qatar where Jeff had his very first road assignment. Luckily there were a few delays, so Jeff was able to spend about two weeks back home. We got to hang out with our families, and even caught a Brewers/Cardinals game!

On Friday we left the US and we're now back in Doha. Jeff was here for six months from October 2005 to April 2006. We weren't married yet and I was still in law school and working, but I was able to come out here for a week to visit. It's amazing how much this city has changed (but that's for another post!). It's a little bit nostalgic coming back here, and it seems like things are coming full circle. We're sure most of you know, but Jeff is planning on coming off the road and working in the office for good in September. That means our time left on the road is running out, so its really cool to possibly end things where they began! That's all for now, but now that we're back on the road hopefully the posts will come more often!
