no more

No more floor plans, no more dreading the weekend because it means no news, no more stressing over paying the bills, no more rollercoaster ride, no more wondering, no more negotiating, no more waiting:)

Sam is taking an associate position at Chiropractic Arts here in ABQ....his first day is tomorrow!

I will reflect soon on more of the details of how this came to be, but for now, I want to give you all some of the peace and closure we're feeling and say PRAISE GOD! He is good. We might not understand it all right now, but He is good and these months of surrendering the outcome to the Lord while working hard on our end have led is here.

New Mexico is officially our new home:) Now it's time to change our cell phones and get NM plates on our cars.

Thanks for your constant support friends:)

Cheerfully His,
libby

choices

Remember this? Well, God is good...and for the first time since this whole process began, we've got CHOICES!

So, which door of opportunity will it be?


Door Number One: (prob not cause they've been dragging their feet since November!)


Door Number Two? (Hmmm, looks a lot like the door on Sam's graduation invite!)
OR

Door Number Three: (it has potential people)

we shall wait (hopefully not too much longer) and see!!!

celebrate good times, come on!

Dr. Samuel Oertel!

My parents show me some love at Sam's fiesta:)

Like father like son

Sam's patients should NEVER see this picture!

As many of you know, Sam recently graduated at the top of his class as a Doctor of Chiropractic. Our trip to Illinois was such a joyful time spent celebrating his accomplishments with our friends and family. Perhaps the most exciting part of graduation week was the realization that we were about to embark on a new season, one that we've sacrificed for, one that God has clearly called us to. After a trip to St. Louis last weekend we have decided to partner with a company called AMC that is dedicated to helping chiropractors succeed. This week we have started the process of opening our own practice, which begins with choosing our market and location. I will continue to update you as we go along!

Sam Bear-Hugs a Cholla

Here is my studly husband after a fight with a cholla (type of cactus). I don't know who won. Although Sam's body looked like acupuncture gone wrong, the cactus was definitely demolished so.... maybe they both got the crap kicked out of them. Oh the joys of living in the desert.

Shhhhh

The countdown begins....all are welcome!
Now we wait and pray and believe that by the time this party comes we will know what exactly that "new door of opportunity" will look like.
