For the first time in 11 days I woke up without a list of phone calls, paperwork and such to tend to.

I took Krista out to pick up a slew of job applications. We then stopped at Target and Walmart. I had to admit that I would need to replace some clothes. I didn't buy near what I had packed in my suitcases....but enough to wear for about a week without wearing the same thing twice. ::snort::

We came back to the house and grabbed everyone for a trip to Fern Ridge Lake. Mom and Dad joined us. I took a lot of photos but I think the video captures the afternoon better(yes I DID take the camera out in the water to snap the video).



We headed back in and I made a beef pot pie and tortellinis for dinner. Bre, Jared, Stacia and I headed out again for Walmart. On the way Bre got a call from a potential employer wanting to know if she could be at an interview in an hour. Wow, I've never seen that girl move quite so fast. She's at her interview now.

We're going to watch Tim Hawkins....we can't find the newest Rock Star one....I was sure we had it with us, but it's not here now. LOL

Congrats to Krista on the new job! Hopefully something will work out quickly for Bre.

You all seem to be having a great time while you wait to travel. So glad you are finding time to relax and enjoy your extra days with your older girls and parents.

PTL for K's job. PTL Bre can move fast.... sorry I missed that. HA! Two special girls and praying jobs work out real well for them.

We did have fun at Fern Ridge Perkins Pen...

If you can't be in Japan, I'm so glad you can be near the girls for a little while longer!

Glad that you can now relax a little and bloom where you're planted. The kids look like they had fun at the lake!
