Another big weekend.

My dad is retiring! Lindsey came up with a great idea to surprise my dad with a limo on the last day of school. He thought he would be cleaning out his room but we called him down to the front office about 15 minutes after school let out - Surprise!
We even had Grandma Finch with us. Aunt Beth picked her up in the morning, Tyler Lindsey and the kids drove up (only Bailey got to come in the limo), Curtis Max and I finish out the group. We went out to eat at Olivia's in Spanish fork. It was a great meal and I found a cute hat that I went back and bought the next day.
Isaac is growing. I forget how little babies are. Grandpa Jim let me look at his pictures of Max - just hours after birth. I can't believe he was ever this small.
Our friends invited us to a Bee's game on Friday night - we took tracks. It was my first time on tracks. The guy in front of us at the game made this dog - so I asked if I could get a pic of it...it looked so good and I don't even like hot dogs. Max liked the game but he got tired quick.
On Saturday we cleaned the house and went up Payson canyon with our friends to have a little BBQ. Curtis is a great cook.
Backing up a little...On Wednesday I went to Heritage makers to be a part of a focus group. After that ended.. I was talking to my friend, who works there, and she told me to apply for a customer service position. I brought in my resume and application Thursday morning and got a call for an interview the next day. Friday morning I had my interview and was offered the job. I start this coming Tuesday - Wish me luck. I'm feeling a little sick about learning a whole new job. I'll be learning tech support, the company program, reading accounts....The list goes on. I never thought I'd be starting over. I'm excited to learn but feel a little like the old dog. I've really appreciated all of your prayers and support to our family while I've been out of a job. (Lori, you've been a breath from heaven). It has meant so much to our family and we have felt very blessed and humbled. Thank you all! We love you.
