New Job

Well after 4+ months of searching for a job that we thought would take about 1/2 that, we found IT !!! Despite our original desires to live somewhere other then Yakima WA (where Lisa is from), we gave into the need for a job and took the great opportunity that presented its self.

Alan will be working at a place here in Yakima called Central Washington Comprehensive Mental Health. It's a large company that has a number of different branches that are scattered throughout Central Washington. His job will have the responsibilities of working with 4 or 5 families and their youth through a new program. Because it is a new program being implemented he'll get the opportunity to go to some trainings throughout the US each month, as well as work with a small team of co-workers to get things started and running smoothly.

Alan and I are both very excited!
