PJS Update!



Hi everyone! I am sorry that it has been so long since I last updated our blog.
But we are ready to try this again so here it goes.
As a quick overview and much needed update: In our last post we broke the news that we were expecting our third baby... well we are now just 6 weeks away from that exciting event and cant wait to welcome the newest member of our little family with open arms. Everything has gone very smoothly with this pregnancy and I think we are ready for our new addition.
As for where in the world are Paul and Joslyn... you are not alone in not knowing. I can hardly keep up with it myself... Allow me to back up and get you up to speed.
We finished out the summer doing door to door sales with NorthStar Alarm in Houston TX on Oct 7th. Then we traveled to St. George for Paul's sister Serene's baby blessing and enjoyed a nice visit with the Stead family. Then we went up to Idaho for a week to visit the Fitzgeralds and celebrate Paul's 28th birthday and my mothers 50th birthday! Then back down to St. George were we had been planning to move and make our home. Now this is were everything got crazy... After a few weeks of not being able to find employment in the St. George area we started to put out feelers for full time work all over in the Salt Lake Valley and back in Eastern Idaho as well. Then on November 9th Paul had a very promising phone interview with a company in Eastern Idaho. They wanted an interview just two days latter so off to Idaho we went. Well... we didn't end up getting that position but Paul has continued to have interviews and seemingly more opportunities in Eastern Idaho. Thus we are currently staying with the Fitzgeralds... so far everything is working out nicely due to the fact that two of my four sisters have moved out and that has left the entire 1200 sq foot basement empty and unused. So for now we are here and my sweet, every positive, and faithful husband is looking for work and doing handy man jobs for neighbors and friends who need this or that. We are so grateful for the support of our families and our neighbors and friends in our time of need. We feel so blessed to have been able to continue to pay our bills and do the things that are most necessary. We know our Heavenly Father is watching over us and helping provide for our family every step of this journey.
The following are a few pictures of our families. We have had the awesome opportunity to be with all of our siblings and families in the past few weeks and have a new family picture taken. As I grow older I seem to find myself treasuring moments and pictures such as these so much more then I ever recall doing so before in my life. Perhaps this is because moments like these don't seem to be happening as often as they used to. Anywho- enjoy the pictures! Love to all!
