The News

Last Friday was kinda crazy. Jared was suppose to have a decision and leave the state all within a couple hours. Unfortunately they will only allow Jared to work remotely until they find his replacement :( . We are hoping this will take several months and then they will realize that it's working out and not find a replacement. So we decided to take our chances and pay the registration and tuition fees for Fresno State only to find out that there was a GRANT that neither of us were aware of. When we got the paper financial aid "award" in the mail we only qualified for unsubsidized loans, so thanks for hooking us up Jesus! So we are going to Fresno although it is certainly not like we had pictured it we hope things will work out. Thanks for your prayers on our behalf. We will miss our friends here and our church.

Kinda random...

It's a weird feeling when the car you actually own is better than your rental. I never thought this would be true as it has always been a treat to rent a car. In our garage is sitting a 2007 Toyota Camry with 28K miles and a "lived in" interior. I have yet to meet a Toyota that has disappointed and this is no different, I love the car, but I LOVE mine even more. Get better RAV!

SF & Renegade Craft Fair

A couple weekends ago my friend Sara and I met in SF and attended the Renegade Craft Fair. I was glad I attended but wish it wasn't so expensive, I was definitely the only one there scoping it out - everyone else was local. It ended up being a really great trip tho because Sara and I had lots of fun exploring SF. Here is a pic of us about to get on the #30 bus to Fisherman's wharf. (It was Sara's first bus experience).We went to Alioto's for dinner, it was scrumptious!We stayed at the La Luna Inn, Tim was the best!
The next day we drove the crooked road and shopped at Union Square and came across the place where we will stay next time!Lots of fun and Sara did a great job of driving!

YUCK!

**(weak stomachs beware)**

Jared came home Wednesday afternoon shortly after Caleb had just thrown up for the first time. I was so surprised I didn't know what to do, he was crying, standing still in yuck and I was cleaning up the couch. Thankfully when Jared got home he cleaned up Caleb. Unfortunately this was only the first of our woes. An hour later it was my turn. Caleb was taken to the ER where he sat throwing up in Daddy's arms waiting for hours to be seen, then finally given a shot. I was at home worried for him but busy occupying our bathroom at the same rate as Caleb. Thanks to Dani & Mike who came over that night and split the boys and girls so we wouldn't have to be alone during such chaos.
This has been our goal since then, to get Caleb to drink something, here are his selections:

From left to Right: OJ/water, water, pedialite, vitamin water w/potassium.
Since then we have gotten really creative and mixed all of these anything to get him to drink.
Here is our $100 investment to save our carpet, couches and stomachs:

Oye, Lord please let this be over soon!

Update

First of all thank you for your prayers and thoughts concerning us and the decisions that face us. As of today, we still don't have any new information. We are waiting to find out if Jared's current job will let him work remotely therefore allowing us to move to Fresno. Although he sounds like he is choosing Fresno State we still do not know his job situation and therefore have no way of planning. Just wanted to give you and update and continue to ask for prayer. Fresno State Fall semester starts Aug 25th. Thanks.

New Seat?

Apparently the new chair we got for Caleb is not good enough, he wants seats closer to the "action".
