New Job

So it has been about 3 weeks at my new job at Children's Health Services, and things are going well. I really like working there, it is a different world but it has been a nice change of pace. Its been hard not being able to check email, make phone calls, and many other things during the day like i was used to. So that leaved it to be done when i get home. But Jake is just to cute to give that time up with him. Thus being the reason for not blogging in such a long time. However i am getting the hang of things and i am not as tired as i was. So i should be back to Blogging more regularly.

Other than the new job, we found out they are cutting Brents hours at work, so we will be taking another look at our budget to see what we can cut. We are hoping to sell the explorer so that will give us some cushion. Our tax return should help some also. Its tough but i KNOW with all my heart that God will provide like he always does.

Brent is on the Men retreat this weekend so that leaves just me and Jake. I have to work Sat morning so Lynn is nice enough to come and watch Jake for me. Hopefully when i get off we will have some girl time while the guys are aways- who know what could happen.

so MOM no pics right now but i promise i will get some up this weekend.

God is Good!!!

i wrote this like 2 weeks ago but never got the chance to post it--

Ok so I was reading my friend Exie's blog(http://exieslife.blogspot.com/) tonight and the whole time that im reading it I am thinking to myself- "its like she is in my head", "that is exactly the way I feel" That has happened to me"- and when i got to the end of her post i noticed that she was talking to me. LOL well im sure alot of people but she definitely called me out by name. I love Exie.

To clue everyone in on what she is talking about- God has blessed our family in so many ways.
To give you a quick list of some unfortunate events that have come our way are:we had $1,400 worth of fraud on our account, our heat went out back when it snowed and was out for about a week then a couple of days ago decided to call it quits again. Our car broke /died around New Years. And I was told I only had two more weeks of paychecks - i was getting laid off. Sounds like everyone else out there, i know.

But the reason that all of this is soo awesome- yes awesome and in the good way, Is b/c since the first thing that had happened which was the Explorer breaking down God has always let us know he was going to take care of us. Since then we were given a car, I got a job at a pediatricians office, and Brent has mastered how to fix the heater. We have never really gone with out, God has provided in all ways with His perfect timing. We are sooooo Blessed!!!!
