Moving to Denmark

Roskilde, Denmark (where we will live)

Jacob is in the middle of getting his doctorate degree in chemical engineering at BYU. As part of his research/schooling, he will work with Dong Energy and Risø National Laboratory in Denmark for one year. He will take measurements in power plants. All of this work is focused on replacing fossil fuels (coal) with biomass (straw and wood chips) and waste in power and heat generation. Biomass is a CO2 neutral fuel.

We are all flying out on May 5th. Our Baby #3 will be born there. We are nervous about all the different adjustments of being in a new country, but we are also grateful for this opportunity to grow and see a different part of the world.

You'd better keep up with your blogging, Sister! We'll miss you even more knowing you are even farther away, but I'm so happy for Jacob! I'm sure this is a wonderful opportunity for him.
