Catching up..... part one

Okay... so I suck as a blogger.

It's hard for me to just sit down and put my thoughts out there. Especially since I know that not a lot of people are going to read them.... or care to read them.

I am going to post when things happen to me, maybe that way I can get into it. We have several things coming up this year and our lives have been dramatically changed in the last year and a half since I blogged so I think it's time for an update.

2010 was crazy. Andrew's job at Waddell and Reed wasn't going well. Our marriage was rocky. We were financially strained. Things were CRAZY! However, when God shuts a door he always opens a window. And the window he opened for us was a huge, front window, the kind that has a large window seat under it!!

Andrew started working for Morgan Stanley at the end of October and thus began the journey back to life as normal as we knew it.

Morgan Stanley is an amazing company!! They care about their employees, they invest in their employees, they TRAIN their employees! This job, that wasn't even avaliable, that wasn't even an opening.. has been truly God sent.

Because of this new job we are getting out of debt. We are looking to move into a rental home. We are even planning a trip back to Canada to see Andrew's parents and to see his oldest brother get married.

It's amazing to me how simple having the right job, a good job can be. Being that I am a stay at home mom and that we have made that decision and that Andrew supports that decision, it's important that he make a good living and now it seems like he is.

We are truly blessed as a family. There just isn't enough praising to God that I can do for all the good that he has given to me. So in light of that I will post more often this year to be a witness to all those around me that God does move among us.
