Graduation {from Preschool that is!}

Thomas graduated from Preschool yesterday! He's been going to Miss Charity's preschool (that's just next door!) since September of last year and his last day is next week! I can't believe my baby's going to SCHOOL! i'm so excited for him though- he's beyond ready! He's been reading for a while now and I'm just astonished at how well he writes! He's just going to love kindergarten! The school he will be attending is still being built, but should be completed by Fall. I think it will be fun for him to go to a brand new school!

Here he is with his friends eating ice cream after the little ceremony.
I loved how none of the kids quite knew what to do with their graduation hats!
Posing with Dad...

and Mom!

And just for fun, I had to throw these in! I've been giving Colin baths in the sink since he was born! He's getting WAY too big for that now, so I finally dug out this mesh bather and he loved it. He won't be using it for long as he's sitting up now, but he was tired and enjoyed louging in the bath just kicking around.

This isn't the most eventful video, but I still thought it was cute.

Adrian is now EMPLOYED!!!

I just wanted to give an awesome update: Adrian is employed!

The job he interviewed for 1.5 weeks ago called him back on Monday. He went in Tuesday for another first interview with a different group leader. That interview ended and they asked him if he could stick around and meet the Unit Leader! Two hours later he was finally on his way home- that's some interview!! As he was leaving they told him they wouldn't be making a decision until early the following week. Although, I guess they must have liked him because a few hours later they called him back and offered him a job!!!!

The company is great! It's called Westech Engineering. You can read more about it here. Adrian will be doing Project Management again, which he is very excited about. The job requires an Engineering background, so he'll fit right in! He starts Monday and boy are we excited about that!

We just want to thank everyone for all your thoughts, prayers and concern on our behalf. It has been an interesting last few months, to say the least! We feel incredibly blessed though. There are many, many others in similar situations who are doing far worse that we are. I am truly grateful for the many outreached hands that have been there for us to support us in a variety of ways. We love you and we'll keep you posted on how things go at his new job. We hope it's a very enriching and rewarding experience for Adrian and our family!
