A New Job = Excitment/Scariness

T accepted a job as principal of Lake Norman High School. This is HUGE. He has pretty much reached the pinnacle of his career with the exception of finishing his doctorate and working at a central office or teaching at the college level. This is where he has been headed since the day he stepped into the classroom in 1995. It is truly amazing to see him/us at this point. We are thanking God for answered prayers. And thank all our friends for praying too.

The kids are excited about the football field and track. We didn't have time for them to run around last night, but we will definitely be doing that in the future, since they were up at 6 A.M. What were they thinking???? T has only been on the job for 3 days and in a training for most of that time and he is already being solicited by companies, called by a local newspaper for a write-up and getting 75 emails a day. Thank goodness we are going on vacation soon.

On a different note, the kids have their last night of soccer camp. Nor-Nor decided she wanted to try it out. She was so cute with those shin-guards on. I'll have to take pictures tonight and post later. Between packing, soccer, and getting the septic system pumped we have a busy few days. Which by the way, it's never a good sight when you see water start to seep out of the bottom of your toilets. The whole system was backed up..........if it isn't one thing it's another.

Side note: I feel like I need to say this and I don't know why...........Yes we got new cars and No it has nothing to do with a new job. We could have afforded new cars long before this job ever came along. (We try to make sound financial decisions.)
