Updates.

What a crazy few months it has been. Ben getting laid off in December was soo much more difficult on our morale then he let on in his latest posting. About a week after he was laid off I had a miscarriage. If any of you have ever had a miscarriage you know that that term is used too casually.

At this point we are not sure if we are going to have any more children. We are looking at some really big changes in the near future and from there we will see.

Ben is applying to teaching programs in Texas and we feel like it is the right place for us. Of course we are going to live in the same town as Lee and Tricia, that is a given. If I have learned anything, its that family is the most important thing. When I found out that the baby had died, Mom and Dad dropped everything and came up to Portland to give me a blessing.

The best thing in the world is Family.

Hopefully we are learning the lessons we are supposed to be. We are excited at the possibilities in Texas for our family and we are soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
excited for the SUN!!! Killeen is certainly not the prettiest part of the state but we will take it.

I am supposed to check out my niece's blog, Hi Ariana!

Wow, we need to talk more often! The last time we talked you had decieded not to move to Texas. We would love to end up there, but we are still at the military's beck and call for another 10 years or so. Ashley asked me if when we got back to the states if we could buy a house and stay there. That was sad, I wish I could have said yes. Anyhow, I hope you all are doing well. We are doing good, FINALLY. It has been such a rough year for us, mostly emotionally. We are finally seeing the light again. They say that into everyone's life some rain must fall, then you can see the rainbows. :o)
