An Update

Wow, can you believe I haven't posted in 6 months??? There have been many times when I have thought about posting and changed my mind because it didn't seem right. A lot has happened. Some of it is just living life and other things are life changing. Here is a list of just some of those things to update you on what's been happening since our last post.

- The company that Troy and I work for went from Fortune 500 to Government Bailout in a
matter of days. Yikes!!
- I went back to work after 11 weeks of maternity leave.
- Our nephew had a successful open heart surgery and is now a roly-poly one year old!
- Brianna started playing soccer.
- Brittany made the high school freshman cheer squad.
- I turned 40 :-0
- We made the BIG decision for me to leave my corporate job after 17 years and spend more
time focusing on our family.
- God used our journey with Nolan to lead me to an opportunity to work in the preschool
ministry at our church which I am really excited about!!!!

Our experiences over the past year and a half make me look at things from a different perspective, but life is good! It's scary, exciting, challenging and fun all at the same time! One day at a time with God in the lead is how it's working for me. I am constantly amazed at how He uses our experiences to reach others.

I will post some new pictures later. More to come . . .
