Ranger? Or Professional Toilet Fixer

Kaitlyn is officially 2 months old as of yesterday, so Happy Birthday Baby Katie!
Cameron had an interview with Cama Beach State Park today. For some reason I thought that a Park Ranger would be something that he would really enjoy. As I come to find out, it sounds like, from the interview, that basically he's a glorified janitor. Most of the questions they asked him were about toilets and what he would do if one starting over flowing in the women's bathroom during an interpritive progam and it was all over the floor. Then they wanted him to trouble shoot about what was wrong with it! I don't know what to think. I knew that they fixed a lot of different things but they also wanted him to come up with an organizational system for their tp, paper towels, cleaning supplies, and soap. He needed to also come up a way to order all the necessary items as well. I really hope he gets a job, but I thought he's would have fun being outdoors and walking the trails and what not. Anyway, there's a freeze on the hiring process right now so he won't know ANYTHING until it's over. Who knows when that will be.
We also went up to Orcas Island because they're hiring there. It was beautiful! They don't know when they'll start the interviewing process but housing would be provided which is huge because housing is EXPENSIVE there. I've been looking and the only thing we could afford is a one bed/one bath. That obviously wouldn't work. That's all the more we know concerning the park ranger position. We're just waiting at this point because we have no idea where the Lord wants us.
Breanne tried on Baby Katie's bunny outfit. She started to get upset after this picture because she couldn't get her feet in. I couldn't convince her that she was too tall for the outfit...
She also dressed herself. So I didn't put together the yellow flowered shirt and the brown and pink striped pants.












Breanne wanted me to take a picture of her and baby Katie. She surprises me sometimes. I think she'll really start to enjoy her more when she can sit by herself and play a bit more.

Sleeping with the fishes?

This is one way to "sleep with the fishes", huh? She was being so good laying on her tummy and looking around and the next thing

I know she's asleep. I thought it was too cute to pass up a photo opportunity.

Cameron had his phone interview with the Parks Dept. yesterday. I had a doctors appointment that I was getting ready to leave for about the same time so I had planned to take the girls with me so they wouldn't be too loud during the whole thing. The phone rang about 10:05 and he was done by 10: 11. I thought it would take a bit longer then that. They only had 3 questions for him. One was concerning the theft that he said he had been involved in within the past year. He was a bit confused because as far as he knew he had never been involved in a theft. Turns out that he missed marked one of the 15 billion "yes/no" questions on the application and they understood. Still a very slow process even though he's almost through it. Now we just need to go up to the parks that he wants to be hired at and get them to know his name and face so they want to hire him!

So as I have been thinking about Cameron getting a job and getting a place of our own I've starting thinking that I really miss Rexburg. Don't misunderstand, I don't miss the cold weather or the wind, but I miss the people and the atmosphere there. I even looked at the idaho parks and the city parks in rexburg, IF, and pocatello. NONE of them are hiring. So I guess it's just not where we're suppose to be. Made me sad, but it's nice to be in WA after so many years too. We just miss the friends that we use to hang out with and the things that we use to do. Can't live a college student life forever. Well, I guess you can, but you'd soon die of top ramen poisoning (I'm sure if you lived off of it too long it would happen!).

HAPPY HALLOWEEN (past and present)

BOO!

I found some Halloween pictures from 4 years ago when I lived in Provo. They ARE kind of scary. We obviously couldn't come up with anything better then rock stars and a doctor. But we got to put on really cool fake nails.

I think that Halloween is so much more fun now that we have kids and get to dress them up. This is from last year. We were from characters Star Wars, Breanne was an Ewok.

This year she INSISTED on being a fairy princess and Kaitlyn is a cute little kitty. We didn't have any one that wanted to dress up with Cameron and me so we decided not to because we're lame and didn't want to feel like dorks all by ourselves. Where's Maggie and Chad when you need them?? Breanne didn't really get the hang of it all. She had it down before we went out but when they people would answer the door she'd just stare at them. We had to remind her what to say every time! She loved knocking on the doors though, I think even more then getting candy. I meant to get a video of her singing "trick-or-treat, smell my feet, give me something good to eat". It was way cute, especially when she started singing it all by herself and said smell my toes. It was funny. Hope everyone had a great Halloween, we sure did.
