Happy Birthday, A great weekend, AND I GOT THE JOB!

OK so first things first,
Happy Birthday to my wonderful, sweet, beautiful sister! she is a great sister, daughter, wife and most of all a wonderful great and awesome MOTHER! i am so amazed at how wonderful she is doing with Addyson. it's amazing! that's the only word i have for it. i am so proud of her and i cant wait to be a great mom as well! i always dreamed of me and my sis having kids but gosh i didnt realize how great of a mom she would be! we had so much fun this weekend and there was not a dull moment so this post is late but hey i am doing it now so that's what counts!
we had so much fun! i miss you guys already!
this weekend was so busy and awesome and man i was so sad to come back home. but here i am back at work...
we got to my parents friday evening and went to eat out with my brothers cuz my parents were out running errands. that was fun! we all hung out that evening and visited and i finally got to see and hold my niece Addyson! ha... Michelle was so sweet to let me hold her so much and everyone wanted to fight me for her but i held strong! ha. no i felt bad but gosh i hate being so far away. she got so big soooooooooooo fast! but she is still adorable and so fun. i love seeing her smile... saturday i got my hair cut and it looks so cute! she thinned it out for all who dont know my hair is so thick and such a pain but now it's so much easier and feels so much better. it's been so hot out and i needed it! then we all ran some errands with michelle and got to see Stephen at his new store. that was nice, and then my husband proceeded to show Michelle why she needs an I-Phone and boy she is hooked now. thanks Dennis! hahaahahaha...
after we ran errands we went home and hung out till Elsa and Abby and their mom came over and that was fun. we all visited and oooohhhdd and awwwwddd over Addyson. she is the life of the party even if she doesnt talk much... hahaha...
after everyone left Wade went and picked up his girl friend Kelly and we got to visit with her for a while. that was so nice. i miss out so much being up here so it felt good to get to hang out with everyone. then Dennis and i crashed sometime before 1 am and then we got up and got ready for church Sunday. that was so nice to be back at our home church. i miss everyone so much. i saw so many new people but so many that knew me and were so happy to see me. that's such a great feeling. i love feeling like i belong!
my sis got there toward the end of the service and i went out to hang out with her and Addyson in the foyer until it was over... it was so nice getting to spend so much time with my sister. she amazes me. she has a job, and a baby and yet she can plan a baby shower and run millions of miles a minute and when i go to visit i am so tired from all the driving that i feel lazy compared to her and my mom... they make me look bad but if they came up here and saw me on a regular basis i think they would know i wasnt lazy :). we then went to eat and ran some errands with Michelle, she let me carry Addyson around everywhere we had to go just because i was leaving that day to come home. man it was so fun! i love babies, but i just love Addyson so much... she is just 3 months old but it seems like she has been a part of the family for forever!
Dennis and i helped Michelle get all her stuff to the party and then i had to say goodbye to her and my momma. i will miss them and i already do... i love you guys so much! oh and mom you make the best chicken fajitas ever! :) thank you for all you do. i know that because of you michelle is a great mom and i will be one day too! i love you!

ok on to some of the best part! I GOT THE POSITION!. i am going to be the new finance rep starting Sept. 1st God willing... well as long as they can get it all moving smoothly then i start then otherwise it will be the 15th. but i will work up front on sat the first and then Sept 3rd i start in the back as the new finance rep. i will train with the other finance rep for two weeks and then that's it! i am soooooooooooooooooooooo happy and God is sooooooooooooooooooooo good. i have tried to call my family to tell them the good news but they are still asleep and i guess Michelle is in a meeting or something cuz she isnt answering her PHONE! ahhhhhhhhhhhhh.
oh well i just wanted to share the good news... thanks for all the prayers! i am so happy. i started crying when i found out. cuz i was so nervous and i thought i would not know till much later!
oh i just got a hold of my sis! ya! i got to tell her and Dennis and now you guys. i guess i will tell my fam when they finally wake up! ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
have a wonderful week everyone!

Thanks for all you said about me, I try to take everything one day at a time but always end up being stretched in a million different directions, oh well i'm sure it will get better. You would of laughed at us last night, my car broke down adn the battery died and we were in a parking lot and all the lights went off it was great. A hungry baby, rain, a dead battery and a very tired family....interesting evening. Okay well congrats again and thanks for coming down. I hope to come up there soon!! Love you lots
