Moving right a long

At 2:45pm today Joe received a call we had been waiting and hoping for, it was a job offer! He will be a maintenence supervisor at the Residence Inn near the Portland airport, it is brand new and will open in August but he will get to start work as soon as next Wednesday. The pay amount is what we needed and we couldnt be happier. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers!

WooHoo!

So opening the mail yesterday Joe read a letter from Concordia University, he got accepted!! We are still waiting to hear from George Fox University but are leaning towards going with Concordia. Thank you Lord!
Also the job scene is starting to look up a bit, Joe went for an interview this morning for a maintenance supervisor at a new hotel right by the Portland airport. He hit it off really well with the guy who was interviewing him and we should hear back by the end of the week on their decision. We will keep you all posted for sure, thank you for all your prayers. We know this is all in the Lords hands (thank goodness!).

Oops

Well I had some nice pictures to post from this last weekend and somehow managed to erase them from my camera! =( We had a great 4th with our friends at their house in Vancouver Washington where big fireworks are legal there. We sat in their back yard and watched as the neighbors all around put on a spectacular show for us, well maybe it wasn't for us be we sure enjoyed them. It was a really hot weekend and I am glad today has cooled off for us finally.
Joe and I are getting excited for the end of this week to come, Joe's mom Lynn will be up here with her two sisters for her birthday and we cant wait to see her!
This morning while Joe was feeding the dogs he saw a bald eagle standing on a log in the river. I came out to see it and we watched it for awhile until it took off, it was amazing to see.
