Well, Jeremy got "the" call today and he got the job! He of course is excited and very very happy. I am excited for him to get to finally do the work that he's been wanting to do, and working in the everglades is every wildlife biologists dream (or so he tells me :) We don't know when our reporting date is yet. The lady from the human resources office that called him said that we don't qualify for a pcs  (move paid for by them) because we have already taken one in the last year. Jeremy did talk to the man who will be his boss and they do have the ability to pay off your student loans, or at least pay a part of them, so the guy is gonna submit all the paper work and see if he can get Jeremy's loans paid off. He also said that if Jeremy commits to working for them for a year they can give him a bonus of 10% of his annual salary to help with our move. Of course both of these things have to be approved by the people who handle the budget down there, so we'll see. I will keep you all updated. Thanks for the prayers :)

YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've been checking blog about 10 times a day to see if there was any news yet. What a huge praise! Now praying for all the other stuff to line up and fall into place too.

Congrats Jeremy!

And Shauna, I'm so sorry about another move so soon. But I hope and pray this one goes really smoothly AND it's a little more permanent than these last two have been.

xoxo

Congratulations to Jeremy! So thankful the Lord answered your prayer. It made me so sad to know he was so miserable in his job. That's one of my fav memories of him sitting on the front swing and when I brought him a glass of tea and asked, "How was your day?", he responded, "Everyday is a great day, I love my job." A lot has changed through the years. But the Lord is faithful! I'm just sad now instead of 5.5 hours its 9 hours away. I keep saying one day I'll get MY pilots license. Any way, we'll keep praying that all will fall into place. Love you all! M♥M
