Some of you know and some of you don't that we are in a state of flux. Mars took over Nutro and promised to not "eliminate" anyone's job for two years. Well its not quite two years but they have notified everyone that one of the following 4 things will be happening to them as of May 23rd:
1) employee will be given a severance package and 60 day notice
2) employee will be given a severance package and asked to remain with the company to the completion of the merger upon which a bonus will be paid to employee for assisting in the process.
3) employee will be offered continuing employment status with Nutro/Mars at their present facility and location
4) employee will be offered to relocate to Tennessee and work in the same or a different capacity
We will know NOTHING until May 23rd. Needless to say we are NOT unpacking our boxes until we know something. But with the economy in the state that its in we need continued employment.....PERIOD.
We would be grateful for all of your prayers in our behalf.

VA weather report
You may have heard that there were some tornados in VA. Just in case you were worried the tornados were not in the area where Layne and I live.
We are doing well and the weather is GREAT. It is slightly rainy and just warm enough to make the rain a welcomed refreshment. (Sunday had a high of 83 with 0.6 in of parcipitation) Layne thinks it is getting warm and muggy, but we are a still a ways from what it will be in July when Mom and Dad come to visit. (average 87 with 3.7 in of parcipitation). But the pollen count has been very high today so that has not been fun for me.

Kristy's Farewell
We attended Sacrament meeting today in Santa Clara where my best friend Patrice's daughter had her missionary farewell. She is going to Korea. A young man named Jaden Webster sang a song and I loved it so much we went over to Patrices tonight to film it. Now you get to hear it to. This is also my first venture at posting a movie!!

Come Welcome James home with us
After thinking about it, Lewis and I would like to invite anyone who wants to join us, to come and welcome James home at the airport on Tuesday evening May 13th at the Las Vegas airport. I would love to welcome you all to our house, and you are indeed welcome, just keep in mind that most of our furniture is already in California. Please let us know if you are coming. We will make sure to meet up with you.

ByeBye Fence
We have been having crazy wind storms for the past few days. Last night was the peak and part of our back fence decided it was easier to lay on the ground than to fight the wind. Our neighbor came over to ask us if we were ready to replace it because he has a dog and as of right now he can't let the dog out because it would be able to run away. Too bad this wasn't on the list of projects for last week. Jason is trying to patch up the fence as best he can, but we will hopefully get it replaced this week.
