Things Are Going As Planned?! We Haven't Been Shot At?!

Ok, so it's been like 10 days since our last post and a lot has happened.

I started my job at Sally's Bakery and I love it! I have only baked a little bit so far. I am mostly training and cleaning. Yesterday, I got an early shift and I learned how to make bagels from scratch. Hopefully I will be baking more next week!

Christian has been doing some construction/carpentry work at a Bed and Breakfast for a really cool man named Mark. He is a retired nuclear chemist [I have no idea what that actually means other than he is a really smart guy]. Christian really seems to be enjoying working for him [and he's learning some potentially useful "husband" duties]. Funny side-note: Mark calls red-necks "Canyon Critters" and I guess we "will know when we see one."

Christian also [finally] got the barista-ish job at a local coffee shop called Montana Coffee Traders. The manager seems like a cool lady and everyone that works there seems nice.

We are also in the process of applying to rent a really cute, yellow, two bedroom house with an amazing porch. We'll know if we have been accepted in the next few days. [No credit check, by the way. They don't even have our social security numbers. I LOVE MONTANA!]

Everything is working out really well for us here. It's really nice to feel like we are headed somewhere for the first time in almost a year. And we are so close to being independent again! We are really excited to start hiking, biking and fishing [someone left an old fishing pole in Jen's truck and she gave it to us. We'll take what we can get]. Basically we will be channeling our inner redneck.

We'll let you know how everything turns out!
