Aug. 2-4, 2010.
I forgot to mention how much help Travis and Dillan were during their stay with us last week. Travis and Dillan picked up many tree branches blown down by the wind. Then Travis mowed the entire lawn with just a little help from Leslie for the first time mowing a lawn in his life and he did a very good job. Thanks guys. Now, along with the usual yard and vehicle maintenance and house work we hosted Leslie, Matt and, this time Brandyn and Dillan, to assist them with relocation back to Idaho Falls. They were frantically trying to find an affordable home to buy in or near Idaho Falls. After Matt spent a day online and with a realtor to find a list of potential homes we went with them and spent the entire day Tuesday looking at a number of homes, some of which were bank owned. One or two seemed likely prospects but there was always at least one significant problem with each home, whether it was with the house itself or the location. In the end all were eliminated and they have since found that the other side of the duplex where they formerly lived will be vacated mid September so that is where they have decided to settle and rent again for a while. In view of what might happen to the real estate market and with their employment over the next little while this may be a true answer to their prayers although it may not seem so right now. There will just be the challenge of finding a way to make it through the first two or three weeks of school before they can move in. In the mean time Matt is interviewing for a part-time job to supplement his teaching job with the school district. We continue to pray that everything will work out for them in this critical time in their lives.
