The litte boys were in the front room watching a movie while John and I surfed the internet looking for jobs and housing. When the movie was over Vincent came back and asked one of to please start the special features. John jumped up to do it and came back laughing and asking for my camera. I gave him the camera and followed him out to find Addison sleeping on the couch like this. How this is comfortable is beyond me, but it apparently does not bother him.

Are you guys moving?
I guess I should clarify, No we are not moving any time soon. John has a stable job, we just do not like the area too much. We have decided that after Christmas of this year we will start applying for new jobs in areas that we want to live. We are going to be more choosy (is that a word) as it is going to be a more permanent move (we both hate moving). We have started a list of areas that are even in different states that we would like to live in. We then look at the school districts in that area and their starting pay and the cost of homes in that area. We both love the area my parents are in on the central coast, but unless I went back to work too, it would be hard living for us. Example of this is we have a 4 bed two bath 1700 sq foot home in porterville that runs about $250,000.00 on the market right now and John makes $49,000.00 a year. My parents live in a 3 bd 2 bath 1750 square foot home that runs about $475,000.00 and the pay for teachers at the level John would get is $51,000.00. That $2,000 a year would not make up the difference for us! So, we look and sometimes take the are off after we look or just move it down the list farther. It is a nice Sunday evening activity for us while the kids are having quiet time.
There's always Washington State, in a nice little basin right by a lake....
Oh, to be young, and able to sleep wherever you happen to fall, and take a nice nappy!!!....
Well Beka, Southern Wahington is one of our choices. My grandparents live in Woodland, so we have looked at the districts there and also BattleGround. Who knows we may end up neighbors again. Heaven Help You! HE HE HE!
