The possibilities are endless


These pictures tell the story of our life for the past year and a half. Airplanes. Chasing Cameron's dreams of becoming a pilot. Well, that day came when he passed his commercial license and then he got closer to getting a job flying planes when he received his certified instructor ratings. He has finally been extended a job offer from a company called ATP, Airline Transport Professionals. It's a flight school all over the country where Cam will finally become an instructor. He got a phone call from them Friday the 21st saying that they had a couple openings and if he wanted one they would need him that coming Monday in Jacksonville, FL for "standardization training". The options they gave were San Diego, Riverside, or Las Vegas. We bought a plane ticket for him to leave for FL. So he has now been in Jacksonville for over a week and still has no idea where we might be going. His family came and helped me pack up last monday and tuesday so I have been living out of boxes for most a week. Tomorrow should be the day we find out exactly where we are going. All these moves in such a short amount of time is hard to handle. Someday we'll set down some roots, maybe even own a home. Who knows, with us the possiblities are endless!

Rexburg, Roomies, and Utah

We had the wonderful opportunity to take the long trip over to Idaho and Utah a week or so ago. Getting to see Sam and Amber was a ton of fun. They showed us the updated sights of Rexburg since we've been gone for a year and a half. Some of these included the new and improved Walmart, Arctic Circle's new play area, and a new frisbee golf course.

We found a wagon at the park

Wait! I lost something!


There goes the other one


Who needs wheels anyway?

We also got to stay with Maggie and Chad for a few days. It was nice to see them after such a long time and to see that our kids played so well together.

That Saturday while we were in Utah we had a roomy reunion. It has been a whole 5 years since we met. How crazy is that? Even though we have all gone our separate ways we still can hang out together like no time has past. Loved it!

Roomies!


Uh, funny story. I caught them off guard and said, "okay everyone smile". What did they ALL do? Sat up and sucked in their bellies. ALL of them! So funny.

Breanne found a new love when Sam broke out the Guitar hero and Rock band. She took it so seriously.
