4th of July~ Jobs ~ and our trip to San Francisco

Just got back from a glorious week of sunshine in San Francisco! My parents came out to watch the little ones and i went along with John. He had a week of Cisco conferences to attend so i was able to catch up with a few old friends, see my brother and niece and nephews and take in all the cool things to see in the city! I loved every minute of it, and it was perfect timing with all the craziness with the job decision that was going on here. He accepted the Va job pending a security clearance. They don't give out much information except that it could be anywhere between 6 weeks to 1 year and when it goes through they want him there right away. This job didn't pay moving expenses so we are working to get our house on the market right away and hopefully things will all work out. now for some fun pictures ; )
