Part Time Job

Jeremy accepted a job offer last week! He starts that job today. We were almost out of unemployment benefits, so this is a huge blessing for us. Jeremy is obviously still looking for a full time job since a part time job still isn't enough to live off of. But this part time job is enough to give us the hope we need to continue to be happy and positive through this whole experience. This week is also the week where Jeremy would have been out of work for 5 months! When we got laid off 5 months ago, I would never have imagined it would take so long to find a job.

We were able to go to Logan this weekend. Jeremy had a job interview there, so we decided to make it a much needed family vacation. Unfortunately, I forgot our camera. But we had so much fun playing with the Brumbaughs and Petersons. Thanks to both of you for letting us stay at your houses. Clara loved her friends, and was very sad to leave them.

Jeremy had an old mission companion come visit him Saturday night. It was so fun to see those two talk in Spanish with each other and laugh and joke around like old times. He is from Peru, but moved to the US shortly after his mission. He now lives in Stockton, CA with his wife. They were out visiting Utah for a mission reunion of hers. We were so glad to get to see them!As I was typing this post, Clara came up to me with her wrapped around her like a cape. She then said, "Look Mom, I'm a hero!" It made me laugh. I had no idea she even knew what a hero was, let alone how to dress like one.
