Catch up

Well I have alot to say and only a short time to say it. Aydan is pulling up now by himself in his crib at least. That is the only thing so far that we have seen him do. But he doesn't stay up too long because he looses his balance, falls down, hits his head, maybe whimper or two, then gets up and tries it again. So we got in on camera the second night. We went to TN over the weekend and left both our digital camera and the video camera at the camper. But we finally got it. About my new job: LOVE IT TO PIECES. I really enjoy it. I wasn't for sure about how the reception thing was going to go since I was in Purchasing, but I talked to my new boss, David Lanckewiz, now ain't that a name. But purchasing is right up front beside the reception area. Our receptionist is retiring at the end of this week, so I will be doing both, then I have a girl that comes in 3 days a week that can help me do my thing. I am the Jr in the department. But it doesn't bother me doing the reception work because I really like doing it. I am training for all the reception duties this week and then next week I start on my Purchasing training. I think I can handle it some. I enjoyed getting off at 3:30 though but at least I am off on weekends, we take turns being on call, but that won't happen to me until I know more about the area. I get 1/2 day off that is paid for my B-DAY (MAY 8Th in case you need a reminder), get to take my vacation when I want, my boss will let me make time up if I miss and he allows us to get off as needed as long as we get coverage for something that needs 'covering' up. But I think it is a really nice group of people to be working with. I am okay with Reception but nervous as all get out about the Purchasing thing, because I have never done it, so keep me in your prayers. Also get an hour lunch, the Valdese Library is only 3-5 minutes aways so I can come here and hopefully do much better on my blogging thing. Please be patient. I must go, but hope to see some of you at the Fall Festival thing. Grannie is letting the girls come, even thought Kristy has been bad. I don't know what she has been doing. But I think it is wrong to punish the other two from something Kristy did, that is why they didn't come to church on Sunday. So I told them to wear regular clothes, I just hope that when I go to pick them up that they have on regular clothes. Although Daniel said they weren't dressing in costumes this year, they were just going to do make up and wear something because Grannie didn't have money for them. So maybe that is a good thing.
Still haven't heard anything from Mariano's immigration. They needed certified copies of our marriage, birth certificates, income tax filing. So we sent that out to them so we should hear something soon. Nao is still in Canada, she is looking for a job but going to school to learn different things. She cracks me up, I just couldn't keep going from country to country, going to school, staying with people that I don't know for several months. Especially being away from my family, but she has guts that I will never have, at least hope to never have because Lord knows what will go down if I have to go to Guatemala.
We all went to the Dixie Stampede, Mom, Dad, Scott, Buren, Faye, Mariano, Aydan and me. We had a really great time. They have done some different things this year to the program. We didn't get to see their Christmas program. But awesome food, I want to know how to make that soup that they give. Don't know what kind it is but it seems very good.
