Abundant Blessings...

So many of you know that Dave applied for a Management position at Edison about 6 weeks or so ago. He got called for an interview which was exciting. After the interview Dave felt good about how it went and so did they because they called him for a 2nd. The process for the 2nd interview is quite intensive. Human Resources sets up kind of like a mock day in the life of a manager and they video tape you and others throughout the day and evaluate your performance, communication etc. It was a good but tiring experience but after; all and all Dave felt pretty well about how he did.
So about 3 or so weeks had passed and we hadn't heard back about the position so we were starting to think that Dave did not get the job.
Well last Monday Dave called me at work to tell me we should go out to sushi tonight... Of course I said "great!" As we are at dinner, we ordered a drink and Dave goes to do a toast and says..." To my new management position!!" I was like " No-Way!!"
So Dave has accepted a position at Edison as a Manager. This is a huge step in his career and I am so very proud of Him. He really has excelled quickly at the job and has been working really hard. I am a very proud and thankful Wife.

We are even more thankful at how truly blessed we are. We are just continuing to pray about how God wants us to use His huge blessing for Him and to make this world a better place.

OC Beats Pomona Catholic! Big Win....

SO today we had our 3rd league game and we played our biggest rival Pomona Catholic. and we Won! (2-1) I guess we haven't beaten them in softball in many years so it was a huge victory. The best thing about is that we played great and played as a team. It really feels like the past week or so our Team is starting to come together and really work together. This has been really encouraging to see.
Tomorrow we start Easter Break and a much needed break for us all. I am really looking forward to some rest and relaxation and hoping I will be able to come back to work with some energy and motivation to finish up this year!!
Lots of Love!

My new Do......

So since before our wedding I have been saying that after our wedding I wanted to cut my hair short and dye it brown. So I was a little afraid for such a big change at once so i decided ot go in stages..... so shortly after our wedding reception I did the chop. I cut off about 12 inches of my once long, blonde locks. Well finally I went for the brunette and today I colored by hair mostly brown with some blonde highlights and I love the change. Here's some pics... hope you like!

Model A Pancake Breakfast

So last Sunday, Dave and I took the Model A down to downtown Orange for a big Model A car show. It was a blast. My dad came down also which was fun. There was hundreds of old cars mostly Ford, Model A's but a few other cars as well. We just walked around and looked at all the cars. My favorite part of the day was when Dave was standing by our car and I walked away a little bit to find my dad. When my dad and I came back a couple older men were talking to Dave and very interested in our car. They started asking Dave questions about the car and looking under the hood. Dave was loving every minute. So come to find out these men were from the Model A club of America and they were so impressed by our Model A because they said they never see old cars that are original. They couldn't believe it! So we left that day with Dave pondering if he should ever restore out Old Beauty Ford Model A.

After the car show we drove the A to the Orange Circle and had coffee and then met some good friends for lunch. It was truly a great day!

Ontario Lady Knights first big Victory!

So today was our first softball game and we played so great. I was really so proud of the girls. They played a great game with lots of intensity and excitement. A little team theme that the girls made up for this year is "Let our Bats be mighty and our feet be swift" and this was true today!! Our bats were mighty with many great hits by The Knights. We took a 13-1 victory over Woodcrest Christian who actually beat us twice last year. This season is looking very hopeful as we have a strong group of returners and 3 standout freshman. It was so fun today because almost my whole family and Dave and my mother in law, Carol, came to the game. I love having them there to support me and watch my team. After we had everyone over to our house for burgers and had such a wonderful evening. I finally got to give my parent their wedding album and they loved it. It really was a fun, special night. Thanks guys for making the effort to come out here for the game and dinner. Love you all!

Valentines with Rich and Nicole!

We had a fun, very relaxing Valentines Day. We had originally planned on going out of town this weekend but some bad weather and sick friends caused a last minute change of plans. So Friday night Dave and I were at dinner just the two of us (After he had surprised me with a beautiful bouquet of flowers) thinking about what we should do for Valentines Day and thought it would be fun to go wine tasting. SO we called up my good friend Nicole to see if by chance her and her fiance, Rich, didn't have any Valentine plans and they didn't. So the four of us spent a beautiful day out in Temecula. Nicole and Rich are great friends and we really hadn't gotten to spend a lot of time together recently so it was really nice. The four of us just hung out all day and then decided to come back to our house and make dinner. All and all it was a really great time with good friends. Since we just got married and Rich and Nicole are getting married in April there was definetly lots of love in the air this Valentines! We love you all very much!! Happy Valentines Day!!

Monster Truck

So for Christmas we bought Bradley tickets to the Monster Truck Jam at Angel Stadium in January. We all had such a fun time together and Bradley especially got into the motorcycle jumps. It was really cool. Dave is so fun to watch with my niece and nephew, He is just genuinely good with kids and I love it. It makes me so excited to see him as a dad. Here are a few fun Pictures.
