What to do....??

I am not sure what to do with this blog since FB pretty much keeps track of where we are...so with that I am trying to figure out how to update life at the Wilson household.  Someday I get bright ideas and think I could use this as a max and jack dialogue box, thoughts for myself and just interesting items.  However I usually forget them by the time I get on here...which could be days or weeks after things occur.  Anyway I am totally blabbing about nothing now....and will get on with it.

So far we have been in the grand state of Texas for 9 months...if you can believe it.  I LOVE LOVE LOVE the weather and will never trade it...I have been watching all the snow that I could have been living in and think "thank god, I am no longer in it"  We have had a beautiful spring and I couldn't be happier.

We are now looking for a house to live in...not having much luck since the last 3 "perfect" homes we found have been snagged before we could even blink.  and to be honest I wasnt going to start a bidding war between others for a house in this market.  We have decided to lease for the next 2 years, mostly because our house in UT took our entire down payment from us and that if we can get in my perfect area here in 2 years which we will then I want to be able to do that.  So the hunt is on for a house we can make a home for the nest 1-2 years before we settle more permanently.  LOL which is a loose term for anyone who knows a "Springate" aka nomads.

Jared is doing well in his business...he has gotten a promotion at the restaurant and will be the store manager, making more money and working longer hours...he has also officially started his business and has been hired on as the North Dallas Acquisitions Manager for a Real Estate Investment Firm.  Once this position kicks off he will be able to leave the restaurant business behind and concentrate on this job solely.  I have to say...we are a family who are not afraid to work and I hope that he will not have to have 2 full time jobs for long...
With that said once everything gets in gear and he has finished training etc...in 4-6 months I can say good by to my job to and possibly start looking into opening my own business which I have had a plan for, for the last 5 years.

This move has been everything we needed to kick start our future.  Neither of us were happy just being and wanted more for ourselves and family.  This time next year things will be so different.  We will be in the position we wanted to be in for a long time....success has started and we could be more pleased.
