a new outlook on life


I've titled this post as "a new out look on life" Jesse and I have had so many changes go on this last month..and it's really made us realize what is important. Jesse lost his job in November. He was called into his boss's office on a Tuesday morning and received the bad news at the time we were both in shock & disbelief...we thought the world had ended. After the shock wore off...Jesse being the positive uplifting individual decided to look at this as a blessing, and after awhile I must agree. I know you have read in previous posts about me complaining about the hard time we had fitting into the community of sioux center. And now Jesse no longer has to deal with their hypocritical ways. We still have one tie to Sioux Center...our house that will just not sell! ..but that is a whole different story which i do not want to get into! Jesse is currently getting unemployment & searching for the right job. We are so blessed to have our family for their great support. I know Jesse will find a great job & God will guide us in the right way...but i have to keep reminding myself to keep the faith!

We've been busy going to Tilden for the Holidays, enjoying the time spent with my parents, brothers, sister in-laws & my adorable nephew and niece. We also have found out that my brother Todd & his wife Amber are expecting in May...I cannot wait to spoil another little Wilcox baby!

Jesse's parents recently purchased a new home, and had quite the time getting into it. They had several complications along the way with the buyer of their home, which delayed the process for almost a month! His parents stayed with us for two weeks, and finally got into their home on December 15th. Moving was not fun in the cold and snow..but they are finally in and hosted a great Christmas celebration! I cannot wait to make lots of new memories in their new home.

I hope all is well with everyone and your Holidays were blessed with great family, friends & food!
