BUBBLES!!!!

Yesterday we spent the best $2 of our life.  Walmart has this little bubble bottle that does not spill (Thanks Megan for telling me about it).  Josie loves it!!!  Not only are bubbles the best invention for little kids, but this bottle takes away any mess and spill.  SO AWESOME!!!

I have some cute videos but blogger isn't allowing me to upload videos right now ... ugh.  totally annoying. Oh well!  Here are some cute pictures.

NEW JOB!!!

Jon received a conditional job offer from the Draper prison!  We are soooo excited.  He just has to pass a drug test and a background check, and he is good to go!  He will start training on May 31st, at which point I get to quit!!!  Do you hear me singing and doing my happy dance?
Well ... that isn't the end of it!  There is a job opportunity down in Gilbert AZ that we are looking at.  We are going to go down the beginning of May so he can do some more testing and an interview....so we will see what happens there.
We feel so blessed with this job offer and we are so grateful for the prayers that were made on our behalf.

Crafty Dreams

I haven't posted in a while because I started another blog!  www.rcraftydreams.blogspot.com

I have always enjoyed sewing and doing simple crafts, even though I never really thought that I was very crafty.  Well, Jon has had a hobby for a long time that has allowed him to paint and use his crafty brain ... so recently I decided that I should start doing my own hobby.  There are many nights that we will turn on a movie so we can both do our hobby.  The only time we will say anything to each other is when we want to make sure that what we are doing really is as awesome as we think (I know...we are crazy!)
In my blog searching, I kept seeing cute ideas but I could never remember where I found it, or remember all the things I wanted to do.  So I started a craft blog for myself.  It allows me to keep track of all the awesome ideas that I find, and to keep a to do list of the things I want to do.  PLUS, when I finish a project I am able to show it off. This blog has given me a lot of motivation to keep up with my hobby ... and I find that the more I search, and do projects, the craftier I get.

JOB UPDATE --- I wish I had some awesome news, but we are waiting .... STILL!!!! We are going crazy! 
Jon took the psychological tests, and the polygraph.  Those were very mentally draining days for him, but we think he did a good job.  He doesn't have anything to hide, so we are praying that they will see how awesome he is.
We thought we were supposed to hear back last week, but we are still waiting.  We will let you know when we know.
