It Looks Like The Downings Are Moving From The Bayou

We are excited that the wait is over and the results are in. The Air Force is stationing us in Anchorage, Alaska for the next three years. That's right you heard it hear first hand Jordan is going to be a doctor to the Eskimo's and we are going to live in an igloo (not the kind you take on a picnic, but the kind built out of ice). O.K. just kidding.
We are super excited about this transition and we have already been making our list of things we want to do and see while we are there. I just hope that three years will be enough time to do it all. We would love to have you come visit and enjoy the sites with us.
While we are super excited about the adventures to come we are sad to move so far away from our friends and family so we are focused on enjoying the time we have with our friends here in Baton Rouge and making the most of our times together. Of course they all say they are going to come visit Alaska so we look forward to having them join us there for vacations.
Jordan is working long hours in his ER rotation and counting down the months remaining as a resident. He will graduate from being a Resident on June 25th. Celebration!!!
I am gearing up for a busy April, May and June with Easter, Baby Dedication, Vacation Bible School and Children's Camps. I will work into July a the church so I will have one last summer with the children at Woodlawn. I am looking forward to spending that time with them finishing strong in the children's ministry here. We have truly been blessed by our family at Woodlawn.

Stay tuned for updates about our Spring in Baton Rouge and our plans for Alaska.
