We're Alive!!!

Yes we are alive and well. We are living with my mom and dad and are working on getting DSL (hopefully this week!)It is impossible to try and blog with just dial up. So if anyone wants to get together we are pretty free. Plus we have free babysitters now!!
Tim's job is going great and he really enjoys this new company. He is working as a civil engineer for a company called Parsons Brinkerhoff- it's on Winchester by Fashion Place Mall. He is doing roads and traffic engineering now and it sure feels good to be employed again. We got renters in our house just 1 week after we moved and things are just working out. Funny story- Tim interviewed with the City of St. George before we moved and they couldn't hire him because they had budget issues and had to put a freeze on hiring. So Tim looked up in SLC and that is how we ended up here now. Tim's 2nd week of work the City of SG called and said they were hiring now and wanted to know if he still wanted the job. He just had to say no thanks. Then, 1 month into this new job he finds out that Parsons is opening an office in St. George and wanted to know if he wanted to transfer down. I said yes at first, but then we realized that we wouldn't be able to live in our house so we decided to pass. They said to let them know if he is ever interested in transfering in the future and we can come back. Isn't life just funny? We believe that the Lord had to work pretty hard to get us out of St. George and now we have had 2 chances to go back and have turned them both down. But we are very happy and enjoying this new chapter in our lives. I will post more pictures soon!

Oh it is so frustrating when the plan gets changed on you but you don't even really know what the plan is to begin with so you just have to roll with it and enjoy what comes! We have been there a few times. I sure never thought I would live in Europe. Good to hear things are going well.

Hi Holly!! How fun that you are back in WJ. so glad things are working out for Tim! That's crazy about all the opportunities to go back to St. George. Crazy how things work out! It would be fun to get together and all hit dinner or something like you said. Take care and we will talk soon.

Hey I was blog surfing and found your blog. Looks like everything is going well with you guys. Looks like you guys live close to me-well about 1/2 hr away since I live on the far west side of SL in a small town known as COpperton, but my husband works at Geneva Rock at 53rd and the freeway-that's closer. -stretch
