Hey, so I just had to brag for a minute about Nate! It's been a while since I updated on him anyway, so it's okay!
Nate took his LAST evaluation (for his D-sides) today, and passed with flying colors!!!! This is a big huge deal! He's had like a million of these and each one his job has been at stake---very stressful.
Basically Nate is the best thing they've seen since.....well.... since the most amazing thing ever......he's blowing the rest of his training class out of the water!
We went out to Lone Star to celebrate (kids eat free on Tuesdays.....can't beat that!), no pictures, but how awesome is he!!! I'm just really proud of him and happy that he will be able to "relax" for a few months with no evaluations. Way to go, Nate!! Thank you so much for your hard work! I love you!!
***** I forgot to add that he now gets to start working on the control floor!!!! This means a different schedule, one where he will have Sunday and Monday off (wahoo!), Tuesday and Wednesday will be evening shifts 3p-11p (ugh....well, I am looking forward to the boys getting some good time with him during the day....I just hate evenings by myself....if anyone's looking to kill a tues or wed evening, I'm there!), and then Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 7a-3p. Should be interesting. But at least it will be like this for a while!! I'm looking forward to it for Nate, he's way excited to be on the floor!~*****

Wahoo! Congrats!
You better watch how you title your posts or people may start getting ideas! HA..just thought I would give you a bad time....
Thanks for the update...just for me eh?
Congrats!! That is so great! We have had a lot of years of night shifts, and its hard, but you just do what you have to do- at least its not graveyard!! And mondays off rule!! (I really enjoyed your talks Sunday- you guys did great. I think my oldest kids were even listening when Nate was talking about salmon, and that is quite the feat- we totally need to get together sometime soon!)
Yay Nate!!! That's so exciting! And that really is a pretty good schedule! It's so fun to have a day off during the week together. Kregg used to have to work a lot of nights and it does get a little stressfull, but you will totally enjoy those mornings- and the time to yourself after you get the kids to bed. And having him home after 3 the other days?!?!? That's AWESOME!! I'm so happy for you guys! Miss yah!
Two nights a week to have to yourself might be kind of nice. Every day would be very annoying. At least this schedule will give you some variety and can run errands during the day without kids!! ;) Let us know how you like it! Congratulations, Nate!!
That's so Awesome!! Good for Nater
CongraTS!! I too was secretly hoping for a different announcement ;)
Thats awesome about Nate
AWESOME! I can just hear how proud you are of your amazing hubby! (Nate, you know how lucky you are right?) Isn't it nice to see all your hard work and moving all over the place finally be worth it? You guys are unbelievable and I am in awe of your family and how you take such huge leaps of faith. Way to go Nate!!!
