Jobs, friends, and a holiday

God is good and has a funny way of revealing things to me at times. I had my third interview at the Creative Discovery Museum in Chattanooga. I felt like things went very well and they will let me know something next week. This really sounds like such an amazing opportunity for me to use my teaching skills and passions while earning some extra money. I am very grateful for this opportunity. So, now we wait!

I have been so blessed to have truly amazing friends in my life over the years. I am so thankful that even with my nomadic lifestyle, my friends are still there for me when I need them. I am on a major downhill slide in this deployment cycle and we would not have made it without our friends. You know who you are!

The holiday weekend was good! Kate and I went to mom and dad's for the weekend. It is so great to be able to let Kate spend time with her grandparents on a pretty regular basis. It is not the same as living in the same town, but we are so thankful to be this close. We had a great dinner out Friday night at Bugaboo Creek with the whole family (minus Mike.) I am so thankful for my family. I was worried that when Patrick bought his house that we would not see each other as much. However, that was not the case this weekend. We spent a lot of time together watching football, hanging out, and going to Stone Mountain. It was truly awesome.

I don't have any photos from the weekend, unfortunately. I just wanted to give a quick update on life at the Hackney Household. We are officially down to less than 2 months and we are excited! Please continue to pray for Mike, his Marines, and us during this deployment.

God bless and have a great week!
