BIG News!!


Well for those of you who don't know Matthew has a new job. After 9 years with the bank he is moving on! He was just tired of the same old sales, sales, sales!!! He got a really good job working at Free Port. He works at the Morenci mine in the power tower he is a controls operator manager. He has to monitor the power, and water in Morenci and go out and get readings and stuff. He just started this week and is really enjoying it. He gets along with all the guys and he gets to work with one of his best friends Andrew. Another big plus is Andrew's dad is his manager and is in Matt's words "the coolest".He works 7 days in a row 12 hour shifts and then has 7 days off. So far they have let him come home early most days but still pay him for the 12 hours so BONUS!!We are really looking forward to having more time with our dad! One of the biggest changes is he went from shirt and tie to hard hat, safety glasses, steel toe boots and a vest. (that's him in the pic.) I love seeing him come home from work with some dirt on his pants.
Also our house is FINALLY started!! After a year of planing and jumping hoops we are now officially building. We are very excited and love being able to walk over and see what is being done. They said we could be in our house in 8 months, we will see? We just feel so relived that things are happening.
In other news Matt and I celebrated our 7 year anniversary on Monday! We went out to dinner and rented a movie. We wanted to drive to Tucson and do dinner but with the baby so close we decided not to chance it! Can I just say I love my husband and I think he is the best. Aslo I am going to be induced on the 18th. The Dr. said I could have done it the 11th but I want to see if I can go into labor on my own. But if she hasn't come by the 18th I will be induced, babies have a mind of their own :) To sum it all up our life is good, really good (from the movie Nacho). Hope to be posting baby pictures soon!

We spent some time up in UT this summer.This is us at the park by the cabin in Provo. It was such a beautiful day notice the light jacket in June!! It's been nice to spend some one on one time with Maliya before the baby comes.
