A week ago, we had lots of snow and snow days and sledding! This past weekend and today, it's been in the high 70's and gorgeous weather. But the most exciting news came today around 4pm when Kevin got the call that he got a job!!! He had been working with this company through a recruiter for several weeks and after 3 interviews, we finally got the news. We are so thankful.. especially when our last severance check is coming this week. God's timing, once again, is perfect. The salary is a pay cut, but again, we are thankful for a job in this depressing economy. We know God will continue to provide...
This past Wednesday, my SIL Gini and M and W came for a visit. We always love visits from them of course! I didn't get to spend a lot of time with them, as I had my 2 part-time jobs to attend to, but I was thankful for the time I did get to spend with them. Gini and I even got to go out Sunday night to a movie, without kids or hubbys or anyone else! I love spending time with her which makes me miss her more!
Because the weather was so nice, the kids spent great time outside. Somehow, little miss M came up with an idea to go sledding on... MULCH... yep, that's mulch in the pictures! If you scroll down to the pics below of Stone, K and Pop in the snow, it's in the same spot... my in-laws got blessed with a mountain of free mulch last Fall, so it made a great hill to slide on when we had the snow. I guess M felt left-out cause she wasn't here for all the snow, so she came up with the idea to try sledding on mulch. Gini gave it a try with her, and what do you know? It worked! Ha ha ha haa.. she's a genious! Anyway, it kept them busy Saturday night and I think she did it one other time without Stone in tow. So, that's what the pictures are about below.
Couple of more things happened this week.. had another interview myself. This time, it was for a full-time ministry job. This opportunity just kind of popped up, so we'll see how it plays out. It would definitely be a financial blessing, as well as a great ministry opportunity, so we'll have to wait and see. And on top of all this, our friends found out today as well that the bid they had on a house went through. We are so excited for them! These are great friends of ours that we made right after we moved here. The even better part is that they will only be about 5 minutes away from where we live instead of 20 (which actually makes a difference when you try to schedule play dates/get togethers/kid swaps in our hectic lives and the schedules of kids!) And of course, we are happy for them as this is a house that they really wanted. God has been too good to our families and we sing His praises.
