And we're off....

Joe has been interviewing for jobs on and off for the past couple of months.We did get an offer a month or so ago but did not feel right about it. On July 25th Joe got a call for a job offer! After pondering and praying... we felt good about it and decided to take the job. This job will move us to Arizona. We are sad and excited at the same time. It is going to be hard to leave family and friends! On the brighter side the job is with a good company and doing what he wants.
Joe had to leave yesterday for AZ to start the job. We will join him as soon as we can find a place to live. I hope it's sooner rather than later. I already have a little boy here who misses his daddy! (Yes, I do miss him too!)

Timp Cave

Early in July my brother Thel and his family came to visit from Michigan. It was so good to see them! While they were here we went to Timp Cave. I was a little nervous with taking all the kids but they all did well. I had forgotten what a hike it was! Last time I went was about 10 years ago! I don't think I had sweat that much in a long time. It didn't help that it was hot outside. We had a lot of fun! Gabe had a lot of fun spending time with his cousins and was sad to see them go.

Gabe and Daddy

When I first saw this picture i kept wondering what he was holding. I finally figured he wasn't holding anything it was just a cone far away.

This made the hike a lot less worrisome! Thanks Britni! I used to make fun of people that put these on their kids. I totally know why you need one. Especially with a busy little guy like Gabe.
