New Job!

It's official: Chris has a new job!!!

Last week Chris got a call from a guy he use to work with that was looking for someone to fill a position in Northwest Arkansas. We didn't think too much about it because Chris had just lost his job, and we did not want to relocate. We love living by family! But, the more we learned about the job the more excited we became. The company is called ClearPointe Technology.

We took a trip up on Sunday and LOVE the area. The weather is cooler there and just feels fresh! The area has been overbuilt which means that home prices are really low, and from what I hear the schools are great!

So, the only (and BIG downside) is not living so close to family! This was a really hard decision for us. We have been so blessed to be able to live close to family these past 6 years. Luckily the drive is about 3 hours so we will still make trips down here a lot. :-)

We feel so grateful for this opportunity. With the way the job market is now we thought we'd be out of a job for months. I have such respect now for people that go through the stress of losing a job. It is hard!

Thank you to all of our friends and family that have given us so much support. We are so grateful that we have been surrounded by such wonderful people.

Oh, and I am so proud of my husband! Chris has been working around the clock to get a new job. He's such a stud! :-)
