Now that we have one...it's finding time to keep up!!!
Soooo lots has been going on in my crazy life as always! I'm finally not sick with something, no pains in my body (knock on wood) First I got a promotion at the bank, so I will no longer be based out of a branch, I will be a trainer for all new employees, and current employees looking for a new career. It came with a nice pay raise, and an extra week of vacation! Who would say no to that???? Next, our ward just got split up again, so there will be no more Sacrament meetings in Spanish, ALRIGHT!!!, Jeff got a new calling along with that and will be an executive Secretary to the Bishop. I haven't got mine yet, and I really am not too anxious about it, as long as I am not put back in primary AGAIN! Next, we finally got our hardwood floor finished upstairs, and the Guest Bedroom is finished as well....SO COME VISIT ME!!!! Then lastly on a scary note, the branch that I work for (my last day was friday) was robbed, morning glory robbery(when you are approached and the branch is taken hostage before it opens for the day) Luckily Heavenly Father was watching out for me, and prayers are answered because that was my day to go in late. Unfourtunately three of my close friends and co-workers were held at gunpoint, one of them 8 and 1/2 months pregnant. It really shook me up and effected me since I normally open Mon, Tues, Wed, and we were robbed on thurs. However the same Gunman attempted to hold up the branch 5 min up the street from us on Wed. Had he reversed the order in branches I would have been the one locked in the vault with this Guy. I've had some good cries but mostly am verrrrry grateful for answered prayers, and most of all that no one was hurt. This is the second time a branch I work for has been involved in a Robbery and both times it has been my day off, or like this time, I was closing. I'm finally starting to feel better, they were able to catch him, and get this he was NYPD!!! If you would like to read the whole story you can visit nytimes.com it's the article on Muhlenberg Pennsylvania, Sovereign Bank, it's pretty interesting! (Another reason i'm glad that i'm going not going to be in a branch!) Ok that catches us up for a couple months, i'll try and get some pictures on here! Things are going to slow down somewhat since I will only be working my second job on Saturdays! YAY!!!

I am so glad for you to only have to work the one job during the week. You deserve the best. Congrats on getting your upstairs bedroom done. Abby and I would love to come and visit with you this summer sometime and maybe next too. You truly are blessed not to have been opening that morning, although I am with you it is scary either way. We love you!

Amanda, I am so glad the Lord was watching out for you. He does take of us, if we follow him.
Sounds like the Church is really growing in your area, that is good.
Nothing very exciting going on here. Uncle Gary and I planted some lettuce and radishes in a raised bed on Saturday.
I am glad you are feeling better. Well all for now I have to get the laundry out of the machine. Love,
