FINALLY!



Well, after a long wait, we got the word today that Steve will be clerking in Las Vegas! We are super excited and very relieved (it's not fun playing the waiting game!). This is the job we really wanted, so it worked out great! I'm not even very scared to move since we already have friends there that we love. That makes me feel a lot better for some reason. The only thing is that they want him to start soon, so I guess we need to find a place to live! Any suggestions?

Yay! That is sooo exciting! I don't have any suggestions for places to live though. Good luck! Keep us updated:)

Thanks everyone. We are pretty excited about this opportunity.

Hi Kevin! Thanks for the congrats, and how are you doing?

the splendid life of us... said...

Yay for working husbands. Congrats on the new job? When do you find out about the bar exam.

Oh, and I am feeling much better Em, thanks!!

Christi said...

I am so excited!!! When I am out I will look to see houses for rent! If you need anything let me know! Congrats Steve!

Lizzie said...

Wow, congratulations!!! How long will you be there for? That's only 4 hours from here. I would love to stop by next time we drive through.

Jordan and Danny said...

Congrats! Lets us know when you are moving so we can see you before you leave!

CONGRATULATIONS!! good job Steve!
no suggestions here, but we do have a little property in Arizona that we might be driving out to visit at some point... then we could see you guys. Will you be gone from Idaho by next weekend?

Alifinale said...

WOOHOO! I am so happy for you guys! You are very patient to wait so long. We will be on the lookout for a place to live, hopefully close to us! I hope Steve will enjoy sleeping by Emers!

Amy said...

Wow that is so amazing! Congratulations! And the waiting is over. There is nothing better then that.

John said...

Steve - congrats! We are stoked to have you guys coming down here to join the growing throng of Oregon Law grads in Vegas (I think the total is now 9 former U of O LDSlaw people that I know who are down here).

We are keeping an eye out for decent rental houses. Good luck in your search and see you soon hopefully.

Brynne, Aaron and Cade said...

we couldn't be more thrilled for you! And if we can find cheap flights with Southwest (which you usually can), we could come visit and stay with you! Aaron's grandpa is there so that would be a double bonus for making the trip!

Good luck finding a place and keep me posted on everything!

love you!

Chelsea said...

YEA! Glad to hear you have a job, and the one you wanted too! So exciting. Well congrats and way to go steve!

CONGRATS!!!

Just think, you can turn off that baby monitor soon. I'm so happy for you guys. Good job, Steve-o.

I am bummed that you won't be a 6 hour drive away, though. Not that either of us would probably make the trip, but knowing we could helped. At least I know you will be in good hands with all of the other L.V. wives. You probably have a Bunko group all ready to go! That makes me unbelievably jealous.

Jill said...

Hooray! That is so great. I have 2 girlfriends here that love Henderson. That's about all I know about Vegas.

AMY AND MIKEY said...

Congradulations! That is so wonderful. I'm so glad you don't have to wait and go through the "unknown" anymore. What a great accomplishment! As for suggestions on where to live....I'd live in the house with the green shutters, around the corner, an hour away from that cool place. And it's only a few dollars.

Lizzy said...

Congratulations! How fun to be back with the law wives! Good luck with the move and house hunting!!

Lindsay Coudron said...

That is so great!!! Good luck with the move. I wish we were done already, but it will come soon enough.

Megan and Greg said...
