Our Prayers Answered

I am so happy to say that my Dad is going to be alright!!! Him and my Mom went in today for the results of his tests, and they said that there is no sign of cancer!! The mole like thing on his eye just needs to be removed which he'll get surgery on December 22nd.

Words cannot express how relieved I am for my Dad! All of my family have been so worried for him. We are so blessed for him being in good health. It just testifies that prayers are truly answered!

Hoping and Praying

About a week ago, my Dad went in to the eye doctor for an annual eye checkup. The doctor had noticed a little growth on his eye, which he has had for quite sometime, but this visit had worried the doctor. They did some tests just to make sure it wasn't anything serious. Then a few days later, they called my parents to have them come in and talk. The doctor thinks he has Melanoma which is the worse type of skin cancer. They don't know the severity of it, but they sent the tests to a cancer center In Boston. We are just waiting now to get the final results.

I just feel horrible that my Dad, out of all people, will have to go through this!! He is an AMAZING person who works so hard for the family. I love him dearly and am just hoping and praying he'll be alright.

We're Home

Yesterday Douglas and I moved into our house!!!
It was quite the long day waking up at 6 in the morning and not going to bed till about midnight, but we got everything moved!! Now, we just have to get everything organized and settled!!

It was a little weird though, but definitely nice sleeping here last night!! It doesn't quite feel real that we are Homeowners yet! Maybe when we get our first mortgage payment, it'll really hit us :)

Once we are set, I'll post pictures of our After Move In!!!

3 More Nights...

This past week and a half has been busy and tiring for me. Jetblue is changing their whole system on booking flights, so that means everyone in the company has to do a 2 week training course in order to be ready by February next year! It hasn't been too hard learning the new program, but I go in from 830pm - 230am, which sucks because I am so not a night person like I used to be!! It's has totally thrown my schedule off!!

I am excited for the transition though! I think it will be more beneficial for the company to expand and make things easier for all of the employees as well as the customers!!

I just need to survive 3 more nights, and then I can get back to my normal routine!!

Quick Update

This past month has been busy, but very exciting for Douglas and I. With much patience and hardwork, we can now officially say that we are going to be HOMEOWNERS!!! That's right, with Aunt Josie's great help, we have found the perfect home for us!! It's an older home, but brand new inside. We had looked at a lot of homes prior to this one, which nothing really stood out for either one of us, or the ones that we liked were either too much or in a bad neighborhood. Then Douglas had come across our house the day it went on market with a great price and nice pictures, so we called up Josie to go look and get a better feel for it. When we got there, I wasn't expecting much, since we hadn't found anything yet, but when I walked in, I instantly fell in love with it!! It's exactly what we wanted. Of course there are a few things that need to get worked on (mainly the outside) but that is what Douglas and I wanted. A home to put our own work into! With how much we adored it, we immediately jumped on making an offer, which of course they accepted! And to make things even better, we put the dining room table, chairs, and the bedroom set in the offer (staged furniture) and they kindly accepted that as well!!

We are so excited to finally be in a place to call our own!! It's going to be so nice to not have to be in a basement or to be quiet due to others around us and to have our own yard where the kids can play in! I am so blessed for everything falling into place with this home. It's just meant to be ours! We couldn't be more happy!!

So for now, we are getting everything packed and ready to move the beginning of November!! Perfect before the Holidays!!!
