WAY TO GO ROB!!!!!!!!!!!


I would like to introduce the newest Arizone State University W. P. Carey School of Business MBA graduate....Rob Parkinson!!!! Wahoo! We are DONE DONE DONE! (Keep in mind he did not graduate from University of Phoenix...it drives me nuts when people say that. It's ASU! He had the same professors as the people on campus, same assignments, everything...just online.) I am so so proud of Rob and all his hard work. He managed school, a busy church calling, work, and a crazy family! He made so many sacrifices to get through school, and never complained. We love you so much Rob and we are so glad you are done FOREVER!!! Let's celebrate! LIFE-IS-GOOD!

Good luck..but not Good-bye


Tomorrow morning we have to say good-bye to our best friends. We knew this time was coming, but I have tried not to think about it...and now it's here. Lacey and I started walking together when the girls were just little babies (and would stay in the stroller!) We would walk and talk for hours. From that our two families have developed a great, life long friendship. I don't think a day has gone by where we haven't talked or gotten together. Most of our greatest memories of Reno involve the Klingler's. Lacey is one the best, truest friends I have ever had. She is my "sister from another mister!" (Lacey taught me that!) We have laughed together, cried together, and shared life's highest and lowest moments. Words can not even express how much we will miss the Klingler's. Good luck guys, we love you!

WE GOT A JOB!!!! (a real one!)

We went to Idaho to escape our job hunting blues, and came back with a great job in Idaho! Rob is the branch manager for ICCU (Idaho central credit union.) He starts June 15. It is absolutely amazing how things just fell into place. We had applied for this job awhile back, and just happened to be in Idaho when they called for an interview. Rob had 3 interviews in one week, and then they offered us the job. His boss told him they usually don't move that fast, but Rob really impressed them. (hey it's my blog, I can brag!!!!) Then we found the CUTEST house to rent (I will put pictures on tomorrow I'm too tired right now.) It's only 3 years old, and has 4 bedrooms/2 bath, and a huge backyard. And the best part... only 30 minutes to Grandma and Grandpas! Life is good!!!!!
