4 Years Already!!!!

Can you believe it! 4 Years! John and I have been married for 4 years! Crazy! This is the very first anniversary that we weren't at Qwanoes so that was pretty significant in and of itself! We went out for a very nice supper at Gullivers in Grande Prairie, many a date was at that restaurant... :) Anyways! Just wanted to let you all know! 4 Years!!!!

What to do when your bored?

Well folks. I have a job (Andrea), it's a temp job through Mayfair which means it only lasts until friday, but that's okay because I get paid. The kicker is that my job this week is to cover phones for leader energy. This would be fine if I had any other responsibilities, but why train me to do these other things if I'm leaving on friday right? So currently my only job is to wait for the phone to ring. NOW. I've been pretty busy this morning. I think I may have even hung up on someone once. I didn't know what to do with two calls at the same time and I had one ringing back and lines were flashing so in a panic I pushed a button and... oops... :) I'm pretty sure he was the same guy who phoned back 2 seconds later, and sounded a little irritated. :) oops. Anyways, so I'm a little bored. I downloaded computer risk, which is really fun until you've beat all the different scenarios. SO if you have any ideas of simple things I could do to beat the bordom please post a comment. I'd like to see how creative you all are! :) I've got a phone :) basic office supplies, a phone book, bottle of water, notebook, computer/printer, 2 electric heaters, and a fairly large receptionist lobby and desk. :) I'll post the best ideas! Have fun!

A Place to live

Well folks, once again, God pulls through, :) of course, and provides us with a place to live! Of course John just happened to be at the church when this guy Jason Wood was at the church who was just then looking for someone to rent a house with them (they'd take the upstairs, us the downstairs) and it just happened that Gail, the lady who John was talking to knew this and connected the two of them... yeah... orchestrated. That's what I think. Anyways, it's the right price in an older house and will suit our needs just fine.

Just wanted to let you know, but keep praying for our job situation. I've got a few potentials lined up, and Mayfair, the temp agency I worked for before is going to line up a few 'temp' jobs while I wait.

John is re-arranging his idea's of what he wants so who knows what will happen. We have a few ideas and will let you know what comes of them.

That's all for now!

Pssst

Southern Alberta

So crazy as we are after the wedding we headed down to stay with John's sister and her husband. They have their own business (with his parents) and they asked if we'd come and help them out for a little while. We've had lots and lots of fun and an adventure or two along the way. For example: One of the jobs we've (mosly John) has been helping with is re-doing the roof. We'll with the two of them up there it did take a little while and for the most part we had really good weather. A couple days ago, with the end in sight, the guys (with the girls) were working hard, right into the evening to try and get a little more accomplished. We knew that it was forcasted to rain and we wanted to get more roof covered. Well, as we were working we could see this thunderstorm coming. We could see the lightning and hear the thunder so we worked even harder. Well, we were getting pretty close when the first rain drops fell on us and with in seconds we were completely soaked. IT POURED. Literally. We were soaked, right through to the skin, our jeans were completely wet and we looked like we had jumped in a pool with our clothes on. Well, since none of us had dry clothes to put on to go home in we traded our wet clothes for coveralls. I wanted to get a picture of us while we were still so wet but we were cold and it didn't happen so the picture is of us over a puddle wearing our flattering outfits. Steve's Dad is in the background.

Anyways, so we will be finishing up here on Monday and will make our way back up to Grande Prairie, with a few stops on the way!
