Blessings!

Things are going great in Colorado! Carey and I are really, really busy right now, but we're enjoying things. Things are blowing up in a way like I never expected. Work has been incredible! Our division's growth has been phenominal and we keep exceeding expectations in a major way. I'm teaching at a ministry for young professionals called The Bridge within New Life. It's a total God thing because I know I don't have the wisdom for it.

On the home front, we're looking for a house while we rent from one of her friends for a few months. We found some awesome deals over the week-end and think we may have found a winner that is only 10 minutes from New Life and Carey's work. It's a process but we can't wait to be in our own place. It's a buyer's market right now.

Carey is still flying part-time for Skywest one or two week-ends a month. She hasn't grounded any planes yet so that's good. She's based out of Denver and is loving the gorgeous commute. She is working for the musician, Terry MacAlmon, as his assistant full-time from Mon-Thurs as well. Carey is loving being home in the evenings.

I thought you might recognize somebody from the video announcements this week. Click on the link:

Easter

Easter was great fun with the whole family-- but the kids are the cutest pictures by far! Quinn is wearing his easter basket-- a special cowboy hat basket! Alaina was thrilled with her Webkins poodle and pink bunny.

We all gathered at Mom and Dad's in the afternoon and had a great time with Shaundy & James, Alaina & Quinn, Whitney & Carl, Mormor & Morfar, Linda, Monica and Jaycob Africano (James' mom, sister and nephew). We missed Chad & Nicci, as well as Jay & Bill... but we look forward even moreso to the next visit!!

Casa Bonita

Can you tell that Phil was excited about our surprise date to Casa Bonita? :) Coloradans will know all about 'world famous' Casa Bonita, South Park fans might have heard of it too-- which was why Phil was so excited about it!! We had a great night watching the cliff divers and eating sticky sopapillas-- Phil was 'prettay' impressed... :)
