What's happenin' with the Hamblin's?

Well, I knew this year would be a great one and so far it has been! I received a phone call about three weeks ago for an interview for a second grade position. I went in and had it then left the building a little bewildered. I had no idea if the interview went well or not, so naturally, I went home and stressed about it. Two very long days later the principal called me back and offered me the job. I am now starting my third week as an official teacher. Though my class has been a challenging group of students, I am thrilled at the opportunity to have my own classroom and at the end of everyday I go home looking forward to the next. Jesse has also been blessed with a wonderful full time job at Do It Best Hardware and is loving it there. The hours are very compatable with mine and it is so nice for us both to be home in the evenings. Things are going very well and we are so thankful to the Lord for giving us all these wonderful blessings that we don't deserve. The next step in our lives is to look for a permanent place to live. We have time to really think about it, and we will take our time because we are both sick of moving! In the search for our future home we have made a decision to down-size our family and have recently found a fantastic home for one of our very loved puppies, Pedro. He went today to live with his new family. They have a Min Pin already so we both belive that he will be very happy. We are still looking for a wonderful home for Bailey and have decided to keep our little Napoleon. I am a little bitter-sweet about it because I love all of my puppies so very much, but it is very hard to have three dogs. So, as sad as I am about loosing Pedro and Bailey, I am looking forward to giving all my attention to one little dog. It would have been much harder for me if I didn't know that Pedro was going to a good home, but he is and he will be just fine.

Well, in conclusion, I know I have slacked a little on my pictures, but that is pure laziness! Some day soon I will put some more updated pictures up, but for the time being, my words will have to paint the pictures for you! God Bless to all!!
