Simple Blessings


So...its been a busy week, some of you might not know that I have given up the Tile business. Mostly because its gotten so expensive to travel around to do jobs, plus I don't think my knees will hold out much longer. So i have been "JOB" hunting the last 3 weeks or so. Trying to go back into the field I left a few years ago has been tougher than i thought. After 3 weeks of endless applications and interviews i was offered a job with a water bottling plant. I think i will fit in well there. Its a small operation with plans to expand so i think i could grow with them. I will be a working at night as a Maintenance Mechanic. Trish has been very patience during my job hunting.
Aiden and Andrew continue to grow and I notice small changes in them everyday. They are discovering their hands now its funny to watch them hold their hand and sometimes gnaw on them. Today has been an absolutely beautiful day with plenty of sun and a cool breeze in the mid 70's. Ian and I decided to try our luck fishing again at the river. After our disappointment last time i was not to sure about wasting time again at that same part of the river. But low and behold Ian's 3 rd cast into the eddy current and he landing a nice little rainbow trout perfect eating size he was beaming with pride having landed the trout all on his own. I taught him how to gut the fish, when we arrived home we wrap his fish in tin foil with some garlic clove, butter, salt and pepper. I was surprised he ate the whole thing while going on and on how the guy in man v/s wild would be jealous . So as i sit here on the back porch typing this i am thankful for the simple blessings we recieved this week.

It's nice to keep up with Andrew and Aiden's progress. They are special little boys and we can't wait to see them soon.

Tell Ian we congratulate him on his big fish. I'm sure it was tasty. Maybe you can bring him over for a saltwater fishing trip later this summer. BTW, good deal on teh job. I hope it works out well for you and the family.

Trish -- which baby is which? Is Aiden on the left and Andrew on the right? If so, Andrew looks just like you! Glad the new job looks like it will work out well. Congrats!
