November 23, 2010

Well, Fall has come and is quickly leaving. We had some beautiful changing leaf colors followed by lots of leaves to rake. The boys loved riding on the tarp as we trucked them to the curb.

It is suppose to start snowing in Idaho today with expectations of two feet in the mountains. That means ski season is just around the corner, Yeah! We are hopeful that Tamarack Resort in Donnelly, Idaho will be open this year. It is the resort behind Janet's parent's house that went into bankruptcy 2 years ago. It sure makes for some really nice and close by skiing.

The boys are growing up way too fast. I'm still able to manage in a few snuggle sessions every now and then. Yesterday Caleb decided he wanted to sleep in daddy's lap. My heart just melts! I love those boys!

Janet is quickly approaching her December 1st start date with a clinic in Boise. It's exciting yet scary for all of us as we have been spoiled by such a great stay at home mommy. Unfortunately, the medical boards and malpractice carriers don't like for doctors to be out of practice more than about a year so we have to do what we have to do. Thankfully it is only one day a week for her (for now)so we should be able to manage just fine.

I will continue working in Nampa, ID and in Fallon, NV in the emergency departments. Hopefully I will begin phasing out the Nampa job and work primarily in Fallon 8 days a month. I enjoy the Fallon job a lot more but it means I am gone from home 8-10 days a month. There's always a trade off isn't there.

My brother and sister and their children will be coming for Christmas this year. We are so excited! We have rented a house in the mountains that should hold us all. Actually, we may be owners of a house in the mountains on Friday. We made a ridiculous offer on a beautiful log home in Donnelly and low and behold the owners and the bank took the offer. It has been in the short sale process now for about 4 months and it looks like everything may actually go through. I will keep you posted. There are some pictures of the place at the end of the blog. Well, have a great Thanksgiving and remeber to not let that turkey set out for more than 3 hours!

November 1, 2010

We had a busy October. We went to Texas for 5 days at the first of the month. We had a good time. Got back home and pretty much just working non stop. I started two new jobs in September so I am pretty swamped. I will start a 3rd job at the end of December as well. This is all in my master plan to find the job that is best for me and the family. I will be spread pretty thin for a while but this is giving me a good feel for many different jobs without having to get locked into any of them. I will eventually settle on a place where I can call home but I'm still keeping all of my options open.

We will probably be moving again soon. The drive to Boise from Weiser is a little over an hour so that equals a lot of commute time. Janet will also start a part time job in December in Boise so it looks like we will be moving closer to the city. It has been nice out here in Weiser but it just doesn't make much sense to drive so much. Hopefully we can sell our house but if not we will try to rent it.

The boys are growing too fast. Caleb is walking everywhere and getting into everything. Those two boys are so much fun! They are starting to play together nicely. We are still working on the sharing thing but that will come.
