Wow...............
I have to be the WORST BLOGGER EVER! I can't believe a month has gone by since I was last on here.
Well, a big change happened in our lives. Josh's time with the State Dept. of Roads was up April 30th. Two weeks before that he got his "letter" in the mail from the railroad for his callback. THANK GOD!!!!!!! It's scary when you have a family of five and nothing out there after April 30th and then get that miracle letter....just in time! So now Josh is back to driving to Alliance daily and works the afternoon shift and every weekend, but hey, it's a job, and a good one at that!
We had to buy him a new car. We spent quite a little for his Buick to get fixed and $480 later and nothing fixed, we decided the route to go was to purchase something with less than 150,000 miles. (His car needed a new transmission and we hated to spend that kind of money on a car with such high mileage.) We ended up with a red 2006 Ford Focus with 65,000 and got a heck of a deal on it! It isn't our first choice of car but it's a nice little car for him to travel with and hopefully will be dependable for a long time.....like long enough that it will be Kaitlin's FIRST CAR! She was absolutely thrilled when we told her it would be hers someday if we bought it. She even said she can't wait to learn to drive a stick shift since it's a five speed. :-) That can be her dad's job. lol
School is about to end here. Next year Kaitlin will be in 7th grade, Kylah will be spending her 3rd grade year at Whitney, and we decided to not send Carter to school until next August since he turns 5 in July. Josh and I feel it's the best choice for him. This means I will have no children in the elementary school next year and it will be so strange. (Not entirely true...I will have many preschoolers and daycare kids there.) :-)
We are planning on getting our garden put in soon. Hopefully next weekend is the plan. We have had so many windy days this past week and it's starting to get on every one's nerves. So we pray, NO WIND TOMORROW PLEASE!
Hope you all had a great weekend. Have a great work week and I hope to blog again soon...................
