Quick Updates
Sorry it has been so long again... Busy, busy, busy. I will be glad when the legislative session is over and summer is here! I did want to update everyone on a couple of things though. Robert was offered a job with Waddell & Reed, which he accepted. YAY! He will be studying and testing for his license(s) over the next 3 or 4 months, so continue to keep him in your prayers. He will be working during those three months doing direct care (social work) for the company he used to work for and probably also substitute teaching.
We have another offer on the house... and we are praying this one will go through. The buyers seem to actually comprehend what "as-is" means, and are not even going to get an inspection. (2 of the other 3 offers backed out because of the inspection and the fact that we would not fix everything. They didn't seem to understand that the house is being sold at such a low price because it needs work... If it were in perfect condition, we would be asking a lot more!) Anyway, we also put an ad in the paper to find a renter, just in case, and have had PLENTY of response to that.
Everything else is going really well... we started a new study in our small group last week (the book of James) and I am really going to enjoy it. It is crazy how God works things out... the study in our small group, my friend Khrista has been doing a study on James and recommended a great book (which I bought), and my Dad preached on Sunday from James 4. So apparently God has some good stuff for me to study in James for the next few months!! :) I have learned a lot already and am looking forward to more.
Ashlie's wedding is approaching fast... a little less than 5 weeks! That means preparing for that, and also the bridal shower and other fun stuff.
We had two birthdays this weekend, my mom's and our nephew, Nate, so we spent the weekend in Twin Falls, which was a lot of fun. We spent Saturday with Robert's family, and Sunday with my family.
I think I have rambled on long enough, so until next time... sorry no pictures. My camera battery is dead again.

I am so happy to hear that things are finally working out with everything now, but will defenately keep you guys in our prayers. I am also so excited for Ashley! what a great time in life.
Congratulations to you and Robert on his new job. I see it is a financial business of sorts. What licenses will Robert be studying and testing for? I know nothing of Roberts schooling or career path. Would love to know more!
Again congratulations!
