Please help us pray.

Ok so I should really not be blogging right now but I just can't help it. I love it! It really is the best therapy.

Now to why I am here.

As many of you heard, our landlord has been trying for some months now to short sale the home we are renting. He finally failed a month ago and the house foreclosed. We have to move only there are a few hick-ups.

#1.) Chris is still unemployed and looking for a job
#2.) We have no clue where we want to live except we know we want to move out of the Queen Creek/San Tan Valley area.
#3.) This is a good one. We just found out that Chris has a 401K account from when he worked at Intel (5 years ago) worth a great deal of money. Praise the Lord for this one we were so surprised and grateful.
#4.) Chris interviewed for a job in Florence (hey at this point a job is a job), after the interview he was approached by one of the interviewers who informed him that there was a job that would be opening up in her town. She is the HR manager for the Coolidge Police department. She told Chris to call the Lt. that was doing all of the interviewing.
#5.) Chirs interviewed for the job on Monday and the Lt. started all of the background stuff that same day. It sounds like this might be a promising possibility.
#6.) If he gets the job we would need to live in Coolidge or Casa Grande. This is fine with us, but here is the kicker. We have to be out of this house by May 28 and we don't really want to commit to living in Coolidge or Casa Grande until we know if he gets the job so here is where the prayer part comes in.

We don't want to put the cart before the horses so to speak so we are waiting and praying for God's good and perfect will to be reveled to us. We are asking every one to pray with us the focus of our prayer is "Not my will but Thine be done." We know that He is taking care of us as he always has and as he always will. We know that what ever the path He chooses for us He will make it all go smoothly.

Thank you everyone for your prayers.

Easter 2010



We had a wonderful day celebrating the Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ.



This year we watched, "The Passion of the Christ" with Caela and Cori, on Good Friday. It was a heartbreaking undertaking for all involved. I am sure it left a lasting impression on their young hearts. They are both amazing young women who are both becoming amazing women of God, we are very blessed to have them.



We were very lucky in that we got to spend this blessed day with both sets of grandparents.



We had a great day, and are very grateful for the wonderful blessings that God has given us. What an amazing gift the forgiveness of our sins truly is.

Better Late Than Never

Happy Birthday To My Baby Codee

Here is how we celbrated her 10th birthday. I can't believe she is already 10, it is amaizing how fast time goes by.


Our birthday girl at the zoo. This is what she wanted to do on her special day. I was a perfect day. We had to take Rice Crispy Treats because a cake was too hard.





As per her request we had homemade blueberry waffles for dinner. They were delicious.



All in all, I think she had a great day. We did as well as we got to spend the entire day together as a family reminicing about the day our precious Codee was born.






She is an amazing gift from God that we can not even begin to imagine our lives without. We thank God for her every day, and the special person she is. She has been a loud but wonderful blessing.
