Wow.....it's seems like it has been so long since the last time I updated so this will be my best attempt.
Some of you already know this story so you may want to skip this post.:)
Since the news of being pregnant and getting over the shock and moving into the mode of excitement so much has gone on. First of all you have to understand that my husband is such a hard worker for our family to have the nice things that we have, a nice home, nice car, etc. But of course it all comes with a price. For almost 3 years now Jason has worked in the car business. He has loved it, he enjoyed the excitement of closing deals and was so very excited last March to take on the position of sales manager at the dealership where he started selling cars. Again he had been doing this since before Kason (almost 3y/o now) was born. The down side of being in this business is that family gets little time. He worked every Saturday that rolled around and a majority of the time left the house at 8:00am and didn't get home until 7:30-8:00 every night. He didn't seem to mind it and after some time became accustomed to it. This meant that he was home just in time for the kids to go to bed and missed all but two of Keagan's first two seasons of soccer games. So for me it was tiring. I have prayed for quite some time that God would bring something along, literally lay another opportunity in his lap that would allow him more time with us his family. So........that's not really what happend b/c God always has a way of doing things that leaves us confused in the begining but in the end feeling his amazing love. The first Tuesday of February Jason called me on his way home and told me that he had been laid off. He was devistated I was shocked and immediately began to worry about so much. We will both tell you we wondered what God was doing. We cried together and talked for quite a while then I sent an email for our Sunday School class to start praying for us. The very next day our SS class had a prayer meeting not just for Jason and I but for others who were going through some hard times as well and it was amazing. Jason and I immediately began to feel God's peace and assuring that He was going to take care of us. Jason went 3 weeks w/o a job! We think that's amazing considering the circumstances in the economy right now. He accepted a job offer and now works a 9-5 job Monday-Friday with every single Saturday off!!! Isn't God amazing!? There are so many other benefits that he gets from the company that I won't bore you with but we have felt so loved by God through the process and know that no matter what He is there, He is listening, and truly wants the best for us in HIS perfect timing! Jason's layoff was God's way of taking Jason out of the previous job b/c Jason had become so accumstomed to the hours he probably would not ever have quit. His 3 weeks off of work allowed he and Kason some precious time together while Keagan was at school and sweet time playing football w/Keagan every day after school. I also must mention that our family, church family and our sweet friends prayed for us and surrounded such an amazing way, we appreciate those of you who called, emailed, prayed and offered to do anything in the world for us, you know who you are.....we love you very much and are so grateful each of you has been so carefully placed in our lives!!!
Oh and I can't forget Jason is working for a well established home mortgage company so if you need any assistance in that area send me an email and he get you all fixed up:) Thanks for listening (reading) and I tried not to ramble too much!

Just thought I'd include this picture of my man he's using for the new business cards
Love you Babe!!
