A Busy Spring

It has been a very long time since I've posted, but it has been a very busy spring for our family. Especially the last few weeks. About two weeks ago my Grandpa Merrill passed away. I am going to miss him very much, but I'm so glad that he doesn't have to suffer anymore. He has been ill and in pain for quite some time. We stayed in Idaho Falls for the funeral and took Annie, Zoe and Olivia to the park to see the Falls. They were more impressed with all the ducks and geese than the waterfalls. I guess I'm not really surprised. Then just two days after Grandpa died, Nathen was laid off. The good news with this is that his last day of work isn't until September. The bad news is that we need to find a new job. We've known so many people that have searched for jobs for months and months so we are wasting no time getting started. We both feel confident that we will be okay and find a job fairly soon, but it's the unknown that bothers me. Not knowing where Nathen will be working or where we will be living for that matter is the source of most of my stress. We are hopeful that we can find a job in Salt Lake soon!
