Was it Luck?

Ya Who Baby! Max got the job and starts Monday! We are about to start a whole new chapter in our life! He has made so many sacrifices to get to where he is now! He completely changed careers just about 3 years ago! That is not only difficult but scary, but it has finally paid off! We are going to start reaping the rewards now!!



But was it Luck? Maybe a little but I think Heavenly Father has directed Max all along this journey! There is no way we could have done this on own, he inspired Max to begin with and now this promotion came just at the right time!! The way this has all worked out is amazing to me!

Happy job promotion MAX!!!!!

Love is in the air!!

I can't believe it's been since Christmas since I wrote anything. Where are my days going???

I don't know why I feel this way this year because I never have, but I am so excited for Valentines Day. It may be because my kids valentine cards are all done and have been for weeks!! Thanks to Grandma!!! No last minute runs to the store for more cards or candy. Nothing, all done here.

I'm really not sure why I'm looking forward to this month. I have never been a romantic when it comes to Valentines Day so I'm not sure what has changed. Usually I think it's a dumb holiday, but not this year.

Life is so busy for me right now. I don't think I have another minute in my life to give to anyone. Full-time job, tax season has started, & I'm working Monday and Wednesday nights and then Saturday all day, then school which requires about 10 hours of work a week. Don't forget I have kids and a husband. And then my calling at church; which we have a party to plan for Relief Society activity. So don't be coming to me looking for anything.

I think life may be turning around for me. This last year I have really struggled! I'm not going to go into it but for some reason it has been very gloomy on my horizon. No real answers to why, I just didn't have much of an outlook in life. Things are a changin' and I can feel it.

It's not happening over night but a little everyday seems to be getting better. I had a great talk with a dear friend of mine and she pointed out that it's my attitude that needed to change. That is easier said then done, believe me.

Well I'm trying to change my attitude but at the same time I still don't want too. I feel like life is tough enough to get thru right now and I just don't want to. But I am going to try. Life seems to be getting a little easier like I said. Let's just hope it keeps going this way!

Max has a great opportunity ahead and please keep us in your prayers because if it goes through we will get to receive many blessings from it. More ways then anybody can ask. Max has worked so hard these last few years with his career change and hopefully he will get to reap some of the reward. Cross your fingers for us!!

Max jr is turning 10 years old next week!!! I can't believe it. He is getting so big and so interesting. I look at him every day and see my little baby boy! It is so weird!

As for Madi, what can I say. She is still just as cute and bright as ever. She puts a smile on my face every day, just like her Dad. She has her Dad's humor and it's so much fun!

I have more to write but it's late and I need to get up early!
