The past couple of weeks seem to have flown by, but we are anxious for next week to arrive! The past couple of weeks, Benj has been on a job in Phoenix. He returns next Tuesday and we will be heading to Florida to be a part of our friends' wedding! We are excited to see friends that we miss very much and to get a little bit of a vacation!
For those of you that may not know, when Benj isn't in the office, he is on the road traveling with a pilot, working the camera in a small plane. He works for an aerial mapping company and they bid on jobs all over the West. I am so proud of all the hard work he does and his company is extremely generous to us, financially and with his time as well. Though it's hard being away from each other, we know that this is just for a season. We are so thankful that Benj gets paid so well so that we can pay down as much college debt as we can! It's amazing to think about how much this job (as well as my job at Starbucks) provides for us and we know that God planned it all for us! Staying thankful helps the time go by more easily and it is such a blessing to be living with Nathanael and Shannon so when one or both of the guys are gone, Shan and I have someone to keep us company (and help with the babies too)!
In order to do their work, they start early in the morning and fly till the clouds come in or until the afternoon. They have to have clear skies and the sun has to be at the right angle in order for the pictures to be right. Here are some pictures of Benj at work!
