I have had quite a few people recently ask me where I am and what I am doing so I thought I would write up an update to put on here.

So from October until February, I was living in IL and working in IA working my last travel therapy job. During that time I became involved in a church, started doing some awesome zumba, and made some great friends. The anticipation of leaving all of this was just not cool, so I decided to stop traveling and stay here in the quad cities.

In March, I was in Zambia for the month with Amy. It was an incredible month filled with business getting Amy’s house together, fun times with the children at Children’s Nest and making new friends. That month really confirmed that Zambia is where God is calling me to be.

For now though, I am back in the quad cities. I came back here in April and took a job at Illini Restorative Care Center as an OT. The job is going really well. I am loving working in a place where the other therapists are super friendly and helpful, and we can all joke around and laugh a lot. And the patients have for the most part been nice to work with. And, I love that I get out early enough that I can go to zumba a few days a week, lead worship with some great people for the youth group, and have time to spend with friends. Living by the Mississippi River is pretty with sunsets and different birds and a nice trail that I go rollerblading on a lot.

I am excited for this summer with trips to SD and NY and other random adventures that may come up! I have added in some pictures of recent adventures.
