UPS update

Chad has officailly passed everything....driving test, drug test, backgroud tests, etc...... His boss told him this week that there is an open driving position and he put Chad's application in for it. If all goes well, it looks like Chad could potentially be driving full time by the end of the summer. "Thank you God" This is an answer to many prayers, however, nothing is officail yet. Although Chad won't be doing his love in life, which is building, he will have a solid, dependable job with great benefits. This will give him much more free time to enjoy with his family and still do side jobs. Thank you to everyone who has kept us in your thoughts and prayers during this process.

Traverse City Trip

With Chad working 2 jobs for 1 1/2 years now with not much of a break, we decided it was time to get away for a little while. We went to Traverse City for 3 nights and it was a lot of fun and very relaxing. We had a gorgeous view of the lake off of our balcony. Emilee LOVED the swimming pool and we had a nice day of site seeing. Oh, we also each got free $10.00 to use at the casino. Chad didn't win anything, but I won $55 and kept it. That was kind of fun. After we got home we enjoyed another 3 days of relaxing at home. What a much needed break!!!

Happy 2nd Birthday

Wow, I can't believe Emilee is already 2 years old. Where did the time go? She is the joy of our lives and we can't imagine life without her. Who knew that we could love one little human being as much as we love her, and our love keeps growing. We are so proud of her!! For her Birthday we had close family over for yummy cake and ice cream and she opened lots of fun presents. It was a nice evening.

First Hair Cut

I decided it was finally time to give Emilee her first hair cut. She had lots of new growth in the front which kept hanging in her eyes, so we decided to give her bangs and trim up the sides and back. The only way to get her to sit still was to feed her food. She ate many raisens while Grandma Young trimmed her hair.

Gorgeous Home

Well, it's been quite a while since I've updated the blog. I'll start with a few pictures of the log home that Chad just finished building. He took me to go see it last weekend and it is gorgeous. He showed me all what he did, which was pretty much everything. He is so talented and this is truly his passion in life.
