This requires the full story:
DBop is such a strong person and he's so diligent at reading his scriptures and praying every morning before he goes to work. A couple weeks ago, he felt like he should ask the Lord about helping us find a way to move back to Idaho. He hasn't really thought that we should be going back any time soon, so he thought it was bizarre that he would think about it.
That night, he was telling me about this and he says, "You know what? I'll just look on the Simplot website and see if they have any positions available in Idaho." So he pulls up the website and the first job he sees is a position, the same one that he holds right now in North Dakota, available in Heyburn, ID. He hadn't seen it before and he decided to call a guy in Boise (where the headquarters are) and see if he could apply and that he would love to live there. The guy told him that they had just posted that position THAT SAME MORNING and he could apply and get an interview soon. They had to keep the job posted for at least a week and then they could start interviewing applicants.
You want to know something interesting? Heyburn (or Burley) is only 2 hours away from his parents in Idaho Falls, and only 3 hours away from my parents in Salt Lake.
We know this isn't a coincidence and we are praying that no matter what happens, we will be happy. We have no idea if we are going to move or not, but it is a testimony builder that the Lord watches out for not only our needs but our wants. We would want nothing more than to be near most of our family, especially since we are having a second baby soon. Even if we stay here in North Dakota, we have opened our eyes to really come to appreciate and love it here and maybe that's what we needed, but who knows.
DBop has a phone interview tomorrow at 11:00am so we are hoping for the best. We will keep you posted.
