House Hunting this weekend!

This weekend we make the house hunting trip to California. We have appointments to see a few homes and hope that one of them will be ours. We are prepared to walk away though if we don't feel the right "spirit". Hopefully that will NOT happen.

We are also attending James good friends homecoming. He left two years ago and went to Germany and returns this Thursday. We are very excited to see him again. He and James put in their papers around the same time but this James received his call first. Its one of those milestones to our own James returning. We just found out that the weekend that James was supposed to be giving his homecoming is NOW stake conference. They are praying about asking him to speak at Stake Conference. Other wise he will not give a homecoming here. Wow! It will be interesting to see what happens. He will be released the evening he arrives home and give his report to our stake president. Due to the short amount of time he has between when he comes home and we move (and stake conference) there is not an opportunity for him to report to the council.

We officially started packing. I am so very tired of moving and hope that we don't have to move again for a long time but even as I type that I know that we will have to move in a few years as we will buy back in once the market turns in California. Sigh.

I loved reading about the adventures in Kansas and everyones Easter. Loved the pictures too. We didn't do anything other than attend church. I have been very busy doing lots of "extra's with the kids (Caitlin hurt her knee and has 4 weeks of physical therapy, Daniel had his wisdom teeth out etc etc). We also found a reputable and trustworthy car repair place and had all the cars serviced so we were having to do without one car as each one rotated in to be fixed. Lots of fun but very tiring. This week is looking just as busy. I look forward to heading to California to "get away".

1) I don't know the answer to this at this time but will let you know.

2) I don't know the answer to this either at this moment. The Stake President is praying for confirmation about him speaking in Stake Conference. As soon as he tells us, I will let you know.

3) Dan is fine and so is his mouth. :)
