Recap of Summer 2014

Can you believe it's September of 2014? Seriously, where has the time gone? The month of August felt like a Sunday of the week. We dreaded to see it come because it meant the end of summer. It came too quickly and ended too quickly. With that being said, let's take a look back on our summer.

Mr. and Mrs. Eng spent three weeks of their summer in Korea. (You can see their adventures if you scroll down Mrs. Eng's blog.) Then, Mrs. Eng resigned her job as a Preschool teacher, flew out to Utah to spend time with her immediate family. (If you are interested, you can see her adventures on the blog as well.) Mr.Eng spent his summer doing research while preparing for year two of med school at UTSW. It looked like they had a LONG summer ahead of us. But then, with a blink of an eye, they said hi to August.

 They first celebrated  their second year anniversary.  Mrs. Eng feels very lucky because her Chinese man knew exactly what she wanted. They feasted on lots of yummy Korean food on their special day! Mmm.. The following week,  Mr. Eng welcomed year two of med school. Mrs. Eng has yet to see him since.



Mrs. Eng spent the month of August lazying around in the sun. Mostly alone. All alone.. 


   Sometimes her neices were kind enough to join her.. Aren't they the cutest lovely littles ever?









Mrs. Eng looked for jobs here and there. She had to ask her Heavenly Father for a lot of guidance but it felt right leaving her job as a Preschool teacher. Leaving her job at the Preschool was a tough decision. Not a day goes by without her thinking of her little Preschoolers. But, she no longer has the strength or will to fight against the education system. Little do people know that teaching youngsters at an early age is so critical. But it is easily overlooked. And, she decided she will use her degree when she becomes a mother. But for now, she has waved her final goodbye to Early Childhood Education.

Mr. Eng and Mrs. Eng then had visitors. They gorged on Dallas hamburgers and Korean BBQ. Then, Mr. Eng spent exactly one day of August playing video games. Mrs. Eng has a question for her readers, "do men ever stop playing video games?"

Mr. and Mrs. Eng reached a huge accomplishment! They proudly finished watching all EIGHT seasons of Psych. It was a very long process and took a lot of patience. But, together, as a team, they did it!

During her unemployment period, Mrs. Eng was very blessed to have the time to watch tons of You-tube vidoes, play tons of Tetris (she may or may not have bought lives on FB), and read a few books.
 She truly enjoyed her summer/unemployment period. But she was starting to feel a bit unproductive. Plus, her already thin wallet became thinner. Thank goodness she welcomed the month of September with a new job. Mr and Mrs.Eng both are excited to start a new chapter in their lives. Yay to second year of med school and a new job!! They are currently lovEng life! 

XOXO, the Engs
