As you all have noticed, Junction City Rivers don't give many updates. Mostly because there is usually not much going on, just work, racing HOT WHEELS, and sleep. But these last few months have been very busy, to include many changes for our little family.
Many of you know, Megan was in a car accident in July, and we had to replaced our "new" RAV4, with a "new" Highlander. Although, it was very stressful, and Megan was certainly protected by God from any serious injury, finding the Toyota Highlander was a huge Blessing, and we thoroughly enjoy it!!!
Megan started working in the Junction City Middle School this new school year, and it has been a welcomed change. She still serves at an Elementary School, but no longer has to go on Fort Riley every day which has been nice.
James continues to work in Clay Center, for the Postal Service. He of course, is very good at his job as a front window clerk, and is impressively fast at sorting the mail. His supervisors are happy with his work ethic, and he is the one they rely upon to get the job done right, and on time. In February 2017, James will be eligible for a full-time position, so we are praying for an opening closer to home. Your prayers for this opportunity to open up for James, would be greatly appreciated.
Our sweet, ornery, energetic, smart, wonderful, Landon is growing, growing, growing. He is the biggest tease you will find. Has an incredible ability to repeat phrases and words in context making it extremely hard not to laugh when he is actually being very defiant. He was SUPERMAN for Halloween, and he LOVED IT!!! Mommy got the snickers, Daddy got the milk duds and M&Ms and Landon got suckers. Only suckers.....hehehe And only if he ate enough bites for dinner. :)
One of two big changes for Rivers 3.0 is that we moved to a new place the first of October. The situation in our apartment complex had gotten filled with DRAMA, illegal activity, and a hostile living space. It had become an unsafe environment for Landon, and very stressful for us as property managers. So, after 5 years we said goodbye! God blessed us with an immediate upgrade!! We found a much larger place with features we have always wanted in a home, and a Landlord that cares for their properties. You know you have found the right place when you can negotiate the rent down, your child adjusts with no problems, and my late brother Ramsey, leaves us a Dime in the mailbox.
Less than a week of being in our new place, we found out we will be Blessed with Rivers 3.2, June!!!
We are so excited for a new bundle of joy, and will actually have the space for them! Megan struggled with constant nausea the first weeks of pregnancy and had a variety of cravings like pickles, chips and salsa, chinese food, and strawberry shakes!! YUM YUM!! Thankfully the nausea has significantly reduced in the last week, and she is starting to feel and act like her cheerful self again.
Things have started to settle down for us, but we are looking forward for the upcoming Holiday Season. We hope to get more involved in Westview Community Church that we have been attending regularly for the last 5 months. It has been a slow adjustment but we are really getting spiritually fed, and hope to be a part of the church family.
We can't wait to see many of you in the coming weeks! And Megan is ready to compete with Q to hold that sweet 4.1 baby!! ; )
Much Love, James, Megan, and Landon
