To school or not to school

For those of you who don't know I'm not going to be attending school this semester like I had planned. It was a really tough decision for Trent and I to make but at this point in our lives we want to start focusing more on Trent's career. He's going to be taking some very serious surveying tests in the next months. The first of three will be in October...this one's going to be crazy!!! It's an 8 hour test and if he doesn't pass it the next one's not for another 6 months and he can't continue on to the other 2 needed to get his surveyor's license.

To be honest we've been holding back on expanding our family until we know we can rely more on Trent's job. We're also hoping that by the time all the tests are completed the economy will hopefully had picked back up because the survey field has taken a big hit in these hard times too. It's quite the gamble we know, but it's something that will be perfect for our family and just pray that everything will work out. I'm so proud of Trent, he's really talented at what he does and how hard he's worked at school to put us in the place we need to be in. It hasn't been easy with work and church callings and 18 plus semester hours at school he's been a real trooper and feel like the least I can do is support him in any and every way I possibly can.
