Frusterations

Sorry for the vent I am just really struggling AGAIN with Josh's job and work schedule. It seems to have gotten harder having a husband that works nights. It is lonely and depressing and I am SOOO ready for a change. Josh has been working nights for over 7 years now and it is getting harder and harder. Sometimes I feel like a single mom and I feel like I miss out on so much time with other couples and church. In Aug there will be a lot of new jobs at Purina and we are hoping and praying that God will have a day job (using Josh's degree) that will be perfect for Josh. I may never understand why God keeps saying no for the jobs that have previously popped up, but I pray that I will have strength to make it through until Josh gets the job that God has in store for him.

SUMMER

It has been a fun summer with lots of family around and I really enjoyed spending most of it with my brothers and their families. Dan, Leslie, and kids where here until recently from South Africa and we had fun swimming with them, having the oldest kids in school together, going to movies, sleepovers, playdates, plays, and most of all Lake Powell. It was sad to see them go back home and they will be missed.

Kaden is playing soccer for the third year and is really enjoying it. For the first time I am not coaching and I actually miss it! Ashton is still our little jokester, always cracking jokes, and giving us his cute, yet silly grin. Brennan is ALL over the place and rolls to anywhere he wants. He is getting close to crawling so it wont be long until he gets into EVERYTHING!! My boys are three of the best things that have happened to me...and I enjoy seeing their thoughts and ideas come to play.
