JOB....What's that, I've forgotten?

While we have been in school Jake has kept busy with doing all the school work and trying to bring in a little income here and there with odds and ends like Internships and Graduate Assistantships! We made things work, but had to sacrifice little things here and there and had LOTS of help!! Thank you, we couldn't have made it without all of your support. I am so happy and so proud to announce that after many sleepless and tear filled nights, that our prayers (and I know a lot of yours, thank you for keeping us in your prayers) have finally been answered!! We knew eventually we find a Job but we were so blessed to get the exact one that we were hoping for, nor did we know what an amazing company they would be!! I am so full of gratitude and I know that our Heavenly Father has been looking out for me and my beautiful little family!!
Has offered Jake a job as a Financial Analyst!!! I have never seen a job so perfect for my husband. He is a man who has to believe in a company to work for them and lets just say Jake is a believer!! Someone at Disney that Jake interned with asked him why he would want to work for Lockheed?? Jake said "oh I love that kind of stuff" and she goes "WHAT?? but they make Bombs!!" I just recently watched Iron Man 2 and the more and more I find out about Lockheed I tease Jake that it will be like working for Stark Industries!! He is so excited to start work!! I'm so proud of him! I know through the whole job searching process he took a lot of rejection and abuse and he still kept going back for more!!! In the end it was all worth it! The best part of all of this is he doesn't start until the 7th!! So we get two whole weeks of just spending time with Daddy and the girls are just soaking it up, as am I!!!!
