A new season....

And no, I don't mean the winter/spring weather :-) Wow, that was weird. Waking up in April to a snow covered van! As I keep saying... we are craving warmer temperatures... Josh was given news today that he is now on permanent lay-off after this week.

Some may see this as bad news but not us! I can see many positives out of this. For one, we get to spend more family time together! Josh has been working towards finishing his degree and now he will have the time to go back full-time! Kelly is getting ready to have her "big" surgery so he can be there for that and the list goes on and on....

One thing Josh always reminds me of is when the twins were 3 months old. He lost his job at Zimmer due to downsizing. We were scared to death, weren't sure how to handle it. BUT, it turned out the a great 6 months of our lives and we wouldn't change that time for ANYTHING! He was there for all thier "firsts". It was a special time. And the very day his severeance etc ran out, he got a job offer!

God has our back. We see this as an opportunity, not a loss. We will continue to pray daily for Newmar that God will bring that company back to where its always been before the high gas prices etc. WE love the Miller family and are grateful for ALL they have done for us, thru everything! And we pray that one day Josh can go back there to work. If that's what God wants for us, it will happen. If not, then his plans are perfect and we are excited to see where he will take us from here!

Thanks for all the well-wishes, concerns, and prayers!

Love you all-
Andra
