Scary Times...

We have some bad news! James came home on Friday to tell me that his company was struggling financially. They made the decision to lay off a lot of employees on Friday and James was one of the causalities. It came as a total shock to me. It is pretty bad timing, because I am also on Family Medical Leave with Ethan and I am not getting paid either. Yikes! 

We are trying to be positive, though. We know that God has a plan and we will probably look back a few years down the road and realize why this happened. At least we get to have some family time for a little bit. We are going to see what happens...but if James doesn't find a job any time soon, then I may go back to school earlier than I thought. James will be a stay at home Dad until he finds a job. No spending for us, though! =( 

We are just praying that James will find a job - I know this will be tough with the economy. 

On a happier note - check out the cutest picture of Ethan in his Halloween costume. I know it is early - but I wanted to try to on him to see if it fit. He was all smiles - so I got some good pictures.
