What's going on...

It's been forever since we have posted anything on here, probably due to both of us turning to Facebook, but for those of you who don't, I thought I would update you on what we have been up to. Mandy has been working at Macy doing Make-up and working crazy hours. It hasn't been all that she was hoping it would be, but she is continuing to look for better opportunities. In the meantime, if you need any suggestions on cosmetic products, she's your go-to girl. I on the other hand I have been dealing with some change at work. We have new management in Guest Services and they are taking the department in a new direction. I'm keeping optimistic and hope that things will get better, but we will have to wait and see. I've learned a lot as a manager and it will be difficult to not have the same role I've had for the past two years. Valet Managers will no longer exist and the new role will be Guest Service Managers who will uniformly run both bells and valet. I hope to continue to be an asset to the company I've spent 7+ years at, even though my role as a valet runner will be more limited. I've recently applied for NHP and I'm currently in background. It is a long process and should be since the responsibilities are great. I also continue to bug Mandy about going back to college. It is hard to find time, with our schedules being so crazy, and our kids already spending so much time at Mom & Dad's house. Mandy and I have also been trying to work with our lender on a loan modification. This process has been a long and stressful one. After 1 1/2 years of calling and faxing paperwork we are hopefully finding the end. I hope and pray the result will be positive since we love our home. Laynie is getting bigger and bossier everyday. She is still quite the toon-aholic and is a total girly-girl. The other day I was playing around with her and she yelled back, "Your gonna mess up my hair!" On the other hand your have Peyton, who is in to everything and has already developed quite the temper. He climbs up onto everything and when you tell him to get down or stop what he's doing he has a evil smirk on his face. He goes on to the next drawer or the next night light to rip out. He has started to talk a lot more and has become a little parrot. Our family is blessed and even with the changes going on we are happy. We are lucky we have such a great supportive family to lean on. Thanks for all the help and love you give us.
