My job is going great i ove it!!! and my boss is going to texas so i dont have to work until the 4th of august!

That same day lexi will actually be starting her new daycare! she will be going to LaPetite! and it will be a good chance for her to learn a lot more and make new friends in a structured surrounding! I am very nervsou about ehr starting but she will be about 6 minutes from my work so it wont be too terribly bad! i can get there in a hurry if something were to happen or they needed me for something! Once we move int our new house we will be saving sooooo much on gas so that is a good thing:)

The Latest Happenings!!!

This has truly been an amazing week!!! and God has answered so many Prayers!! ALL IN 1 WEEK!!! As the last post says i got a job and it is still going great! i love it so much!! 

Also our offer was countered and we accepted that so we are filling out the loan paperwork tomorrow and we will see when we get to close!!!! Then we will be moving!!! so most likly Next month we will be changing locations!!! I am so excited to finally have something bigger and being able to decorate things!!! This is going to be a great experience and i am so glad it is finally happening!!!

Here are a few pictures from the 4th of July! I know they are late!! sorry! but i hope everyone has a fabulous week!!!

I had Lexi and Maddie riding the pony:)

Kiss time:)

Lexi cheesing for the camera!

Can you tell they were both just screaming at each other??

Lexi singing and dancing to the Hoppers a Christian Group who performed at Justin's parents campground on the 4th! 

Anyways I know i need some more pictures up and hopefully sometime soon i will have pictures of our beautiful new home!!!!

GREAT NEWS!!!!!!

I got the job and this past week was my first week and i love it!!!!! It is such an easy environment and it is a 4 day a week job 830-430!!! so it works out perfectly! Lexi will start daycare about 6-8 mins away from my work on Aug 4th! so that will also be an exciting time!!! The clinic i am working at is a surgery referrel so we only do surgeries! which is nice we dont deal with any shots or walk ins! you have to have an appt! so the major surgery we do a lot of is when dogs tear their ACL! so if your dog ever does have your vet refer to us and we will take good care of your doggy! It is call Blackford Veterinary Referrel Clinic! 

On another note we are putting an offer in on a house! so hopefully it will go through:) I am excited to be starting this new chapter in our lives!!!

I took pictures this weekend and will put them up sometime tuesday!!!

Hope everyone had a great week!!!

P.s. Here is a link to the house:)

A LOT OF CONTEMPLATION GOING ON!!!

So there is a lot going on in our lives right now! I have 2 interviews tomorrow and both look promising. They are both way out west by pellissippi Parkway! One i know for sure is very promising bc they talked to my boss back home at my moms and he highly recommended me and they are good friends with him so that place is looking great! Thing is is from where we live now it would take about 45 mins to get to work! so judging how tomorrow goes we have been talking and if i get one of those jobs we will be moving! We will find an apartment close to where justin works so it is less travel for both of us resulting in actually saving money on gas than we are doing now! and i would be filling up a lot more if we stayed here! 

Another thing i have been searching today is daycares! Because i dont want to end her to any day care i want her to be challenged! so i have been researching daycares and pre-schools close to where i could be working! 

So if everything goes great and i have a job then some big changes will be taking place! 

Justin is now working 4pm-4am which stinks! but we will get by hopefully it wont be for too long!!

So if you dont care to please be thinking and praying for us as we will need it in the next few weeks if i get one of the jobs! If i dont then we have nothing to worry about and we are back to square one in trying to find a job for me! This has been a long processes and i am ready for it to be over! Looking for a job since march and having no luck is starting to get to me! 

We will still be going to Chilhowee Hills so i will not leave all of you there:) One good thing is i will be so much closer to Turkey Creek:) WOOHOO for shopping!! haha

anyways just wanted to update you all! Hope everyone is having a great week!

Love, 

Kristen Justin and miss Lexi

DollyWood!

Tuesday we went to Dollywood! My  Mother in law Got us a season pass so we went and took our cousin Tanner. We got there a little late in the afternoon so we didnt get to stay too long! But this summer they are having a Kidsfest so we got to see the Kratt Brothers on their Smokey Mountain Adventure!! Lexi and Tanner LOVED it!!!! the animals were very fascinating to lexi especially the python! after we watched the show we grabbed a bite to eat and then went to find the rides! Lexi isnt quite tall enough to get on some rides so she got to ride the elephants, the piggys, the bees and the ducks and her favorite the carasel!!! she loved riding that horsery round and round. Then we rode the Dollywood Express by the time the train was over it was just about 8 so the park was closing:( so we left and went over to aunt midgies house where she cooked us a lovely dinner and then we headed home! Lexi passed out in the car but she enjoyed herself and had a great day!! we will definately be going back soon!!!!! Here are a few pictures from her riding the rides!!! Momma i cant wait for you to come up to see lexi at Dollywood!!!! MISS YOU!
