Catchin up

Hello Everybody! Hope you all are having a nice Labor Day weekend! We kicked it off by going to the High School football game Friday night. It was fun. I'm not so sure what happened in the game, but I certainly had fun chattin with my friends and I know the kids had fun with their's too. I'm pretty sure the only one who actually WATCHED the game in our family was Ed. I do know we won though! That's all that matters, right?

Saturday morning Sarah had her first softball practice of the season. She is doing such a good job! She's not crazy about the sweating, but the rest she likes I think. We got to go swimming afterword so that made up for the sweating! Last night we got together with some friends to "grill out" and sat around singing old Beattles songs (redone by Country singers) while we watched the kids play. What a pretty night too... the weather was great! Nothin like good friends and good food! Today was church of course and then we went out to our favorite "Los Portales" with more friends. Why is it every time I eat Mexican I feel like I need a nap afterward? I think that's what I'll do next!

Many of you know that I had been trying to get an interview at Dyersburg Regional Hospital over the summer but to no avail. I ended up taking the job with the twins and then they called me for an interview like a week later. I didn't go at the time because I had JUST accepted the babysitting job. Well, they called again this past Wednesday and I interviewed Thursday and was offered the job on the spot (pending my drugscreen which I'm FAIRLY sure I won't have a problem passing.) :) I will be working in Admitting, E.R. and Central Scheduling. I think it will be right up my alley... I'm excited! I will miss the babies, but this is the kind of work I've always loved to do and I think that, coupled with the fact that I won't be with kids all day will be much better for me and my family. Please pray for Joan and Drew to find the right person for their childcare needs.

Ed is finally getting that reprieve I was hoping for. He is actually off the whole weekend AND Monday! Right now he is napping on the couch... much deserved rest!

Hugs~
