- After a month of interviewing with different oil companies for an internship for the Summer of 2010 Ben received an offer! And from the company he wanted one from too! It is a huge blessing that we are so happy to have. The job is going to be for 12 weeks in Shreveport, LA. So another move :) We aren't sure of all the details of the job yet or where I will be living for the summer. But we are just so happy to have an offer that could turn into a full time job position!
- I made a visit to Michigan for Staci Kool's (now DeVries) wedding! What a blast it was. I flew back to Grand Rapids on a Wednesday afternoon. Then spent Thursday having lunch with both moms, and little shopping with my sisters. Then Friday helped my parents with their garage sale and headed off to Rehersal and Reheral Dinner at Clara's on the River in Battle Creek, yum! Then Saturday was filled with many wedding activities and I was so happy to be able to be there and help out all I good. What a wonderful expression of their love. It was a beautiful wedding that was tons of fun! Then Sunday another family day and Monday it was back to Texas! It was a quick and busy trip but it is always good to be "home."
- While I was gone, Ben took another hiking trip to the Buffalo River in Arkansas. He went with three other guys and they hiked 27 miles in 3 days! Ben and I had a lot of fun preparing for this trip since getting a dehyrdrator. We dehydrated potatoes, carrots, celery and even speghetti sauce for him to rehydrate on the trail and eat. They had a blast on the trip and have some awesome "fall colors" pictures!
- In just under a month we will be headed to Rivera Maya for a week! It's my grandparents 50th wedding anniversary and they are taking the whole family on vacation. We are really looking forward to this!
- Last weekend we pretended we were kids again and carved pumpkins. Here are a couple pictures!
- And we are about 95% sure we will be in Michigan at Christmas time so watch out for those dates when we get them confirmed.
Happy Halloween! (in a few days :) )
