Being a great dad and husband...
Helping out around the house...
Giving our yard some much needed attention...
Finishing some online classes...
BUT...
He is NOT busy with.... LAW SCHOOL......
That's right, no more law school for Jeff. After a year of HATING law school, a year of doing MBA prereqs and DREADING going BACK to law school, and then a lot of worrying about telling me (and our families) that he didn't want to go back to law school- we decided we should look into changing schools and career options. Better late than never, right? For a week we thought of all kinds of career options and considered the schooling that it would take to get to those careers. State Department, Optometry, IT, Orthodontics, Physicians Assistant, FBI agent, and the list goes on. We have finally decided on a path that we both feel GREAT about... getting a MISM degree (Masters in Information Systems Managment- basically information systems through a business school) with an eventual career in something like consulting! It feels really good to have finally made a decision and to have an end goal. Our first choice of schools would be BYU (because they have a great program and really high employment rates out of the program...yay!), but we are considering all sorts of schools. So, for now..... we are getting our house ready to sale! We don't really know when we will move right now, but we want to be out of our house and we will just rent in the area until we are ready to move from San Antonio. We just started this week. We went to Round Rock (just North of Austin) to hit up Ikea for a couple decorations and doors for our bookshelves. We have been de-cluttering rooms and taking down family pictures. It seems really weird, but I look forward to a new adventure for our family!!!
FOR NOW, if you know of anyone who is looking to buy a house in San Antonio point them our direction :-). If you have seen our house you know it is so cute, right? Haha!!!! And, if you ever want to come scrub floors, wipe down baseboards, plant flowers, pack up closets or paint--- COME OUR WAY :-)!!!! Company is always appreciated!
We will keep you updated.........

Sad for us, happy for you. Really sad for us...
I'm glad you could come to a decision and feel good about. Good luck selling your house. I under San Antonio is still one of the good places to buy and sell homes these days.
Oh no! I hope Derek Doesn't ever hate it. He was really worried that he wouldn't like it. So far he really likes it, but we'll see what he really thinks when we see his grades for the semester! Good luck, it's good that Jeff has so many things he wants to do, and now you know which one!
Looks like we will just be missing each other. Sounds like you will be moving away from TX just as we are moving back! (we are thinking of moving back shortly after the baby is born). Sad. But good for you guys for finding a decision you both feel good about. Good Luck!
How exciting. This decision is such a tough one. Glad you guys sorted through it so well!
Good for both of you! That's such a tough decision to make, but so worth it! I'm sure Jeff will be great at the new career, and won't you be closer to your family?
Oops, that above comment was from me, I didn't realize I was signed in under the other blog!
Wow SOO much happening with you guys! GOOD LUCK! I really hope everything works out with school and selling the house. Let me know if you need anything... and we definitly need to get together before you are gone!!!
We know how scarey that can be. Good luck with selling your house and everything.
Are you serious? That is crazy! But I think everyone should do what they like and love...otherwise life is much harder. I'm glad you guys have it all figured out though. Let's get together a few more times before you head out!!
WOW waht a change! But good for you guys. Jeff will be much happier doing something he loves. You guys should look at some schools in GA :)
Wow!! Hang in there!! I am sure you guys are doing the right thing. The last thing you want is a miserable husband...so good for you!
