Lots of changes...

First off, Jocelyn has accepted a chemistry teaching position at Little Chute High School (Home of the Mustangs), and we are both excited and nervous about the new change. The job seems like a great fit, and there are lots of possibilities for develping new curriculums and being involved in coaching. But since Little Chute is up in the Fox Valley area, that means that the Pinkerts are moving out of Madison! As excited as we are for the next stage in our lives, we will miss all our friends tremendously. We guess it just means that there will have to be more planned camping outings (High Cliff State Park is just 20 minutes from us) and perhaps even some group road trips!

Another exciting change is the purchase of our first home! It is a beautiful 1.5 story house, with plenty of space and even a 3-seasons room. The lot is really what drew us in, as it is filled with huge oak trees, is completely enclosed by greenery, and has a backyard that is right up against a park for all our cross-country skiing and bocce needs. We have lots of room for guests, so if you're in the Appleton area, please stop on by! We have enjoyed the house hunting/purchasing process but are definitely ready to just move in and make it our own. Our closing/move in date is August 7, so we are almost there. Here is a picture to give you an idea, with more to follow:
