Our Life In A Nutshell...so far!

Well, I guess this is just one of those things where you see everyone else blogging about their family and lives and you think well I can probably do that too. Plus, it would give me the chance to show off my really cute and funny kids! ;)


Lets see, Max and I have been married for 9 years now. Most people don't know Max was transferred to Jacksonville for about 4 years. During that time we both went back to school. Boy was that hard for me. I received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Sociology and Max got his Bachelors in Business Admin and then 'brainy' decides to get his MBA and finished it a year later. In the mean time we built a house (oh how I miss it) and lived in a fantastic community. We had family close by too. This enable Max and I both to get to know them more and develop relationships that will never be broken. Boy how I miss them...love and miss you guys daily (tear...sniff)


Anyway, in November of 2004 I couldn't shake this stomach virus. So, I went to the Doc....low and behold I was 10 weeks preggers! Of course I asked how (and not why ya think). I had some health issues that would supposed to not let that happen. Anyway, we were in total shock! After a great pregnancy John Maxwell was born July 13 2005. And, he had colic for 5 months. Well the day we brought him home Max received an email that the company he worked for had been bought out by a BIG company. We were freaking out.


Anyway, another long story short. Max got transferred back to this area. We signed the papers to put the house on the market and it sold two days later. Another freak out! We moved December 1, 2005 back to Btown. Max and I both graduated the next week.


Fast forward a few months when low and behold I order a corndog at a seafood restaurant that become a heated discussion by hubby and friends that I must be preggers again. Oh no I wasn't. We went straight to Wal-Mart and bought 2 preg tests! Well lets just say the result ended in a hysterical metltdown. Well, I was 11 weeks preggers! On February 1, 2007 Sara Kate was born.


Lets see, I began work at Head Start as a Family Service worker and continued with that job until we had the bright idea to buy a store. *Sore Subject*


Now, I am a Victims Advocate for Victim Services in Bainbridge. Our district includes Baker, Calhoun, Decatur, Grady and Mitchell Counties. Max is still with the same company and is Area Manager now. John just celebrated his 4th birthday and will start pre-k in August. Sara Kate is me made over (all over) and was 2 in February.


So, that is the latest on us right now!
