John is working with the local Police department and having a great time! He's been on the force for almost 4 years now and was nominated, along with his partner, for cop of the year. We got to attend the Kern Law Enforcement's banquet at Stockdale Country Club. He didn't win the highest award but did get an award and we are very proud of him.
I have chosen to go back to work and am working a part time job at Old River Elementary. I am working in a 4th grade classroom and loving it. It's been a busy year and keeps getting busier!
John and I became parents again this summer. With the arrival of twin girls we are carrying on the family tradition of twins (John's a twin, his mom is a twin, and my great aunt and uncle are twins). We have been so blessed and are lookign forward to sharing the progress of raising a fmily with everyone.
As if having two new babies wasn't enough, John and I bought our first house. We moved in last week (Sept. 16) and have been trying to get everything organized and put away. It's been very hectic and stress inducing but we are sure that we will be loving it soon! We are still int he process of putting in a backyard and it's proving to be quite the adventure. We have the dogs moved over here and spend most of our day cleaning them (with all the mud, who's surprised?) , and trying to keep them in the yard. They have managed to find a way out no matter what we do. We're hoping that once the yard is in they'll have less incentive to dig out of the yard.
We plan to have an open house so that we can show everyone what we've worked so hard to achieve. The house is so nice and we rae looking forward to seeing everyone. I know a lot of you are interested in seeing the girls as well...they'll be here too!
