What a great day to play at the Lake











Why didn't we get one sooner?

First priority was to get the kids something to do while we unpacked the house so they weren't so bored. John found this trampoline on craigslist for only $30. I didn't understand why we couldn't buy the new one for $450.00? We will let you know when someone breaks a bone, yikes!

Hours of endless fun so mom can unpack the house

Happy in our new little abode!

Go John, you did it!




After three years of hard work John completed law school. The good news is that he is employed upon graduation. John spent the summer of his 1st year trying to figure out which field of law he wanted to focus in on but nothing seemed to click. After a West Law trainning the fall of 2nd year he talked with the trainner/account manager about the details of his job and the company (Thomson) and the light bulb came on. John has had his eyes set on this ever since. There has been so much "light" around this career path and anytime we looked into another one it was filled with confution and frustration. After much faith, prayers, hard work and determination (and only one emotional break down by Janette) John was offered the account rep position over the large law firms in Chicago and just 4 days before his last final. Congratulations on finding your nitch.
