An Offer

Well, it happened! That job offer that has been alluding us all this
time finally came in. And ya know what- 5 other companies jumped on board
and started moving their hiring process along. I just thought the
last 3 months have been stressful! Matt will have 5 different fly-outs in 10 days!

The first company to give him an offer gave us until Friday to decide.
He's flown to Grand Rapids, MI, Orange County, CA, Neenah WI. He got
home an hour ago and leaves in 11 hours for Plano, TX. He'll spend 3 hours in
the SFO airport waiting for his flight to Topeka, KS on Wednesday
and be back home late Thursday night.

Friday will be a long day... *hopefully* sorting through different offers
and figuring out where will be the best fit for him and our family.

We have been so blessed and are ecstatic to see a light at the end of the tunnel!
Just not quite sure where that tunnel leads to just yet. But
only a few more days and then we will!

Thanks your all your prayers and support! Especially to our families who have
been such a support. And to Matt's parent's for putting up with us (and
Brayden and Taylor's 5:45 wake up calls!)

Woo hoo! Don't know what it is about MI that is sweeping up all the BYU MBA's, but you would have lots of buddies there! Good luck with the decisions! I remember when Ben would be flying all over the place for days at a time- I'm SO GLAD we're done with that. Crazy! Congrats Matt:)
