New Job

Thought I would update you on my new job. After 1 month still trying to figure things out as everyone else is as this is new business transitioned from our DC office. I passed my Property & Casualty exam yippee, I was very stressed out for 2 weeks studying and felt like I was living and breathing that alone. I have my Life & Health in 9 days and need to start digging into that one, think it will be a little easier since I have background in both areas. Who knows since I will be licensed maybe someday I will become an agent!

Mother's Day

We celebrated with both of our families on Saturday and Jackson's Aunt Vicki visited from Kansas we had a great time. On Sunday we went and visited her at Burt's mom's and cousin Ali was also in town for a visit. Jackson got his 3rd hair cut, he did a great job for his Aunt. Thank you Aunt Vicki for doing such a great job.

Omaha Zoo

In April we visited the Omaha Zoo with my best college friends. It was a nice get together and the kids had lots of fun. Jackson had fun with his new friends.

Happy 2nd Anniversary to Burt and I!

Two years ago we were officially hitched. So many wonderful things have happened since then... the blessing of Jackson has forever changed our lives and we are greatful for this gift. Saturday night we went to dinner to celebrate at the new Johnny's Italian Steakhouse and it was delicious! Adrian tell Drew we loved it and we will be back!

The Rocker

I foud the perfect t-shirt for Jackson with music instruments. It fits his personality to a T. He loves dancing to music videos and think he has a crush on Carrie Underwood, he has good taste in music and women!

IN PLAY

Last weekend we went to IN PLAY with Karin and Tyler it was so much fun. Jackson was in awe with all the game sounds and lights. He attempted to play skee-ball and enjoyed trying to eat the balls at the same time. Our first stop was the carousel he enjoyed as well. He had so much fun w/Tyler and Karin!

Transition time...

My last day at Citi is tomorrow. Tonight I started to think of some of the great people I met while working there and I will truly miss each of them. I hope to remain in contact with some and wish that I could bring them to Marsh with me! Citi was a great experience and I have no doubt each of my friends will find something better until then I will be praying that they find a good match and enjoy a few weeks off without stressing as I wished I would have done when I was laid off previously! I truly beleive when one door closes another opens...

On the Upside...

Good news I accepted a new position at Marsh as a Sales Associate and officially start 4/21. I will have a little time off before then which is great and still be able to collect my 90 days pay from Citi. It's a new department at Marsh and new position so I will be able to mold it into my own. It's more money which is a bonus and the benefits are great 3 weeks vacation and 4 personal holidays and more paid holidays than Citi. Today my husband brought home a minivan he got a great deal and it looks almost new! Things are moving in the right direction. Thank you everyone for your support on my job hunt. I think this will be an excellent opportunity for me and my family!

Happy Easter!

Jackson was not too fond of his Easter Bunny but enjoyed playing w/his Grandpa and Uncle Todd. We had my parents and brother's family over today and Burt's mom it was great to see everyone and catch up.

I Live for the WEEKENDS...

Today was wonderful despite the late evening snowfall. Jackson and I made a visit to the library he had so much fun cruising down the aisles. At one point, I caught him on his tummy on the bottom shelf peeking through to the other side at a father and son reading at the table, it was so cute. This evening Jackson brought his coat to me saying bye-bye I think he ejoys getting out like his mom. Burt, Jackson and I visited Jordan Creek Mall tonight and he played for the first time in the play yard, it was a good time had by all!
