September 2010

Most of you already know this, but for those who don't Juddy headed to Alaska to Geology work. They called on a Thursday and he was gone Monday. Initially he left for three weeks, but he's such a good worker and had far greater experience than they expected that they had him stay another week. The money was good and really helped out, but man oh man do I have a new found respect for single parents!!!

Luckily, Juddy's mom just happened to be coming to visit on the Monday that he left and my mom just happens to take the month of August and most of September off every year, so I had plenty of help. The week days were madness, just trying to survive. Even with all that help, there is a ton of running around. I fell asleep before 8pm on several occasions. Did I mention that work has never been busier? I mean that's great, but what a month for by business to really soar! It was an insane couple of month that I couldn't have done with out help.

We're SO glad that Papa Bear is home. He missed us as much as we missed him. His quote: "being in Alaska definitely made me more motivated to find a job in Bellingham". It's not that he didn't enjoy the work. He said that if he was single, he could do it three months a year no problem, but now that he has a family, being away from his girls for any extended period of time is just not okay with him. Well, it's not okay with us either!!

In conclusion, picture taking was not a priority while he was gone so here are the 3 pictures I do have.

I just want to say thank you one more time to EVERYONE who helped out while Juddy was gone. We couldn't have done it without you!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you....
