Our Big Announcement---No I am not pregnant!

Okay, so I should have posted this weeks ago, but I am lazy. I have put in my notice at work because.... We are moving to Costa Rica this summer! (May 10- July 17).

Yes, that is right. I know it sounds crazy, if someone told me this 3 months ago, I would have laughed---but it is true. Taylor got into a law program in Costa Rica which transfers back to Pepperdine, allowing him to graduate in December. So, we have decided that if he is going to have an adventure...we all are. We have sublet-out our apartment, and are packing our bags.

We will be staying 3 weeks in the town of Jaco, (which happens to be the surf capital of the world...hmmm...can you guess who picked this location?) and then we will be off to live for 2 months in San Jose (the capital) for school. The kids and I will hang out and enjoy the culture. We are going to try and enroll the kids in school so that they can be completely immersed. Since Abby can converse basics in Spanish and understands about 70% it should be not too much of a shock for her, and as you know, Parker speaks about as much Spanish as English, so he should be fine as well.
We are both so excited. I think it will be a great adventure, before we settle down into real life next year. After we return, I will live my dream of actually staying home with the kids. Ladies and gentlemen...we are on the home stretch.
