First of all we are now business-less. I wish I could say that we sold it for oodles of $ but unfortunately that is not the case. This past mailing we took a hit, and lost money for the first time. We had a number of clients who had said that after the mailing they would be bailing out, so we knew that if we tried to mail again that we would lose even more. So we have given the franchise back to Money Mailer. They don't buy it back from us or anything. We just say, "Here you go, we can't afford to run this anymore..." and eventually they will sell it to someone else and make more money- losers... We are not sure what our plan is now. We didn't really have a plan "B", so it is now a waiting game while we try and figure out what to do. When we bought the business everything fell in to place with it, selling our home, and moving here, so we feel like we were meant to come here, we just don't know why...
After finishing the mailing and deciding to give it back we found out some more news...our dear friends, the Smiths were moving back to Montana. I had a bit of a break down. We miss you guys, and hope to come see you when it warms up there!
Then Tyler's family got some apartments back (long story) so we headed up to Utah for a week and a half to help out with the cleaning, and such (when I say "we" I mean "Tyler"). Tyler worked really hard, and I hung out with family.
While we were there Ava had her 4 month check up. She weighed 15 lbs 15 oz, and was 25 1/2 inches long. The doctor said that she looks perfect! I think so too...
We also got to be there for Tyler's Mom's birthday. Nathan had a blast playing with Madelyn and Rico (my family's dog). It was fun to see everyone, but we are glad to be home. Nathan walked in the door, went straight to his room and started playing. He kept saying "I am so glad we are home!"
(Yes, these two are cousins- don't they look so different?)

I'm so happy that you came to visit! It was so nice and even though the circumstances could have been better, we still had a good time. You have two of the CUTEST kids. Glad your house was still in one piece when you finally got back!
Sounds like a fun visit! Ava is getting so big!!
Good luck with the job hunt.
Ava is GORGEOUS! Wow- she already looks like a beautiful little girl.
We miss you guys so much. We would LOVE it if you could make a little trip up here. It is a little chilly, but we could have fun in the SNOW!. I hope your trip to Utah went well. It is always nice to be home after a long trip like that. Give me a call when you get a chance. I will try and let everyone know when I get my new numbers. Take Care,
Sarah
