This isn't meant to be a negative post, but rather an update of our crazy lives. It's funny though because one of my favorite quotes is, "We must be willing to let go of the life we have planned, so as to live the life that is waiting for us." Well, whoever said they had a plan for their life and it actually worked out?
So, Mark did not get the seminary teaching position, but who knows, he may try again next year. Currently he is just job searching like crazy. We decided, for the time being, that we would stay here, if possible, until the housing market goes up. Who knows, maybe he will get a great job and we won't have to sell the house. Please pray for us.
On another note, my job is still going great! I got another raise and I still love my job!
Cisco is getting bigger. He is now up to 6 1/2 lbs. The vets lied when they told me he was about full grown at 2 1/2 lbs. Oh well, he is still adorably small. He loves to play catch with his ball, even indoors. Since we have been working outside on the garden, he is loving all the out doors time, and so am I. That's the only bad part about my job; inside all day.
We got to go home last month for Chad and Beth's wedding. It was so nice! We got to be there for almost 2 weeks. I made the wedding cake and the groom's cake. I don't have pics of the groom's cake yet, but here is the wedding cake.
It was a lot of fun to make the cakes, but I still can't believe how many of my tools I forgot to take with us. It was a nightmare!
We got our garden in on Monday. I am so excited to have a garden this year cause last year we were too busy to have one. We got a freezer, yesterday, so now we can freeze all our garden stuff. YEA! I love garden veggies!
As for our little family, we are currently waiting on an egg donor. She has been selected, and she is beautiful, but they are still running all the tests. If all works out, we should be moving into the process within the next month and hopefully I will be pregnant by the end of June. Pray for us, please.
All in all, we are very happy and doing great! Life definitely is not going as planned, but I like where it is going.
