Another Job Opportunity... January

Jon has been working with Rehab Medical for only a few weeks, but prior to him accepting the job he interviewed with a company called Baker Hugh's which is located out of Houston.   While working for Rehab the continued the interview process.  There were over 2,500 applicants and they were only hiring 20 people so it was very slim picking.  However, this was a Jon's so called Dream Job and he really was excited about the prospect.  As he continued the interview process he continued to get positive feedback and the head guy even said, We will see you in March.  So having much faith and through prayers we decided to put our house up for sale.  Not knowing if we had the job for sure or not.  It had only been up for a few weeks when the family which rented the house from us for the summertime while we were away in St. Louis called and said they would like to purchase our home.  We had it for Sale by owner.  So still without knowing for certain about this job in Houston we proceeded in the process of selling our home.  It was very painful to let it go, but we agreed on a date which happened to be March 12 or so.   We prepared our home for the purchase and continued our prayers.  We didn't know yet where we were going to move and if we were staying in Morgan or moving across the nation to Houston.  Well, our prayers were answered after a grueling 6 weeks. and Jon was offered the job which they only took 18 employees.  We were thrilled and knew this was the Lord's hand.  It was completely a walk into the darkness for us to have the light opened and our future brighter than ever before.  We are not doing summer sells. and Jon has his Dream JOB!  Not only that but the starting date was March 18 therefore we were selling our home and moving out at the precise time needed for us to move to Houston.  The Lord knew all along what it took for us to move forward and he Required that we had Faith.  It was very stressful and full of anxiety but we are so excited for the future and what it Holds for our family.  Here we go .... Another Adventure :)


Moving to another subject.  For Christmas the kids received ski lessons from Wolf Mountain.  They absolutely loved every minute of them.  There sweet friends Ellie Demond and Addie Williams came and did them with the girls.  I was so shocked to see there improvement.  By the end they could go down the very hardest of the ski lifts.  Autumn ended up being nick named little Lindsay Vohn because she was such a good skier and loved to go SO FAST.  I would say ok Autumn you can go, but don't hit anyone and she would fly down the hill and get there faster than even I could ski down.  It was such a joy to see them enjoy skiing.

















Autumn also had the awesome privilege of turning 6 this year as well.  She had a fun birthday party with her friends.  We played a cute game of dressing up the girls as snowman, using toilet paper.  She loved having a special day just for her.  I love my little girl.  She is so curious and smart.  She is learning leaps and bounds in kindergarten and getting to be a really good reader.  Autumn has a lot of talent and I am excited to see it blossom.
