Dave ended up getting job offers from three different positions within Intel, one in Chandler, and two in Hillsboro. After flying to Arizona for an interview, Dave decided Arizona was way too hot and dry for us. We love the green of the north-west and the cooler temps, and even the rain. But he also learned that the Chandler group had people working in Oregon also, so that was still an option. Dave selected one of the positions and started working a permanent job with Intel, in Hillsboro, about a month ago now.
The last week in July Dave flew back to Utah to defend his thesis. The defense went well and he is now officially done with his Master's degree. We'll be getting the diploma shortly after Christmas, but he's DONE!
The next big thing to deal with is our housing arrangements. We are currently still staying with my parents, but we have plans to move in just over two weeks... into our own house!
We found an adorable, affordable, super-tiny, 4 bedroom, 2 bath house with a great yard, only a 10 minute walk from Intel. We're nearly done with the mortgage/inspection/appraisal/repair process and we're completely on track to close August 30th. We're planning to move over Labor Day weekend. :)
