I was trying to contain my INCREDIBLE EXCITEMENT by sneaking in the job announcement. Then I blew the nonchalance by calling almost everyone I know last night.
The job is a staff accountant for the vegetarian foods department of Kellogg. His office is in the Freeport Center. A whopping 1.6 miles away. Timothy is so happy--he can bike to work (even I, with my visions of him flattened by a semi, can't protest), and he's not in auditing. Much better hours (a standard 40 hour week instead of 55 and no busy season). There will be longer hours when they close out the books every month, but by comparison, the hours are fantastic.
We'll also be making a couple thousand more than at our previous job. Can't complain there.
So all in all--everything has worked out for the best and for that, I can only credit my Heavenly Father and thank Him for our many, many, many blessings.

Alma and I did a happy dance for you last night when we read about the job! I don't think our interview yesterday had as many good results. It went really well, but when it was all done we found out the other big mail house in Sacramento went bankrupt yeaterday- so their managers will be looking for work and they will be a little better qualified. Oh Well- hopefully Alma's charming personality won them over. We weren't sure if he even really wanted the job- so if it doesn't work out I guess we didn't want it. We are so happy for you!!!!!!!!
Wonderful news!!!! :) God is good.
It's actually cost accounting, which is different than what staff accountants typically do. For anyone who cares.
Congrats!!! I am so happy for you!!! YEAH!!! YEAH!!!

Congratulations guys. As much as we wanted to see you up in Logan with us, we know the Lord is blessing you. That's awesome!
YAY! Now all that hard work you put into the basement can still be enjoyed by the hard workers!
Oh how wonderful, super, absolutely fantastic! I am sooooo happy for you guys and relieved.
Does this mean that you get Kellog products at a discount? Or maybe even free samples? That would be way cool! I told Merribeth, Justin and Grandma Barney and they were soooo happy for you guys!
Still would love to see your bew baby some time. Kendall talks about Miriam often and the times that she has played with her.
