We will go where you want us to go, Dear Lord.

After all of the wonderful vacations which I shared life has finally slowed down and we are running a steady pace. Jon and I are working together and life feels smoothe and wonderful for the most part. We have had a few adventures which I will try to catch up on later, but for the simple life. It follows as such: Makenna is in Piano this year and that seems to be going well. It is very fun to hear her tinkering on the keys and I look forward to her learning and growing. I love piano music. She is also taking dance classes at Clytie Adams and this is also proving to be a joyful experience for her and I also get to visit my grandma (Carrie Archibald) while she attends and this is fun to visit with her and to see her with the greats. She is also doing girls scouts once a weeks. Autumn is doing wonderful in Kindergarten and she is also taking dance, and doing Girl Scouts, this is very fun for her to start to be in activities and associate with other children. She is very competitive, but I hope she learns to enjoy friendship in the journey. Dean is loves being home and tormenting just about everyone, but he is the only boy in a house full of girls so can you blame him? Lily is growing into a darling personality that is a little shy, but full of smile's and giggles. She is a joy to have so long as she has her bottle, (Yes she still has it). Recently we started watching my niece Maylee while my sister Whitney goes to work this has been a wonderful joy, and Lily and her are so fun to watch interact. Seeing that they are only a month apart they are like twins and pester and love each other as such. Maylee is a very easy happy little girl, but a BIG tease. Lily has a short temper and cries to mom about it, but also has learned to fight back. They love each other immensely though as they always call each others names when they see each other and try to hug each other. So CUTE! Jon is continuing on the job hunt. He has had many interviews with a few companies and one very promising that we are crossing our fingers for and another job that he would love that he is interviewing for. We are slow to get our hopes up as we have had many let downs, but our faith is strong that the Lord will guide our family where he wants us to go and we are willing to do whatever he wants whether it is here in Utah or moving across the country. Speaking of which we have put our house up for sale by owner. We have a had a few lookers, but no one is interested which is actually a good thing as we have no idea where we would go if it sold, but are putting our lives in the Lord's hands to do as he will with us. Life is good! As Thanksgiving approaches we are having Jon's family in town for the feast and we are excited to see everyone and have a full house. It is a lot of work and is going to be a bit crazy, but isn't that how the holidays should be! It's an Adventure and we will take it where the Lord wants us to go!
