Quick update and EXCITING news!!!

Happy Friday!! I hope y'all have enjoyed your week! Mitch and I have had an exciting couple of days! 
Over the past month, I have been interviewing for a marketing position at a chiropractors office and I was officially offered the job yesterday!!!! 

I have been looking for a job for several months now and have been through so many interviews and nothing seemed to be working out. Out of all the jobs I interviewed for, I think there was maybe one I was excited about. It has been so hard to find a job that I know I will really love. I am fortunate enough that I didn't have to take the first job that came along. I know some people probably thought I was crazy not taking certain opportunities (even I thought that at times), but I just knew God had the perfect job out there for me. 

Over the past few months, I have learned a lot, especially patience, and I had to fully rely on God. Moving here was a little hard, but I am so thankful I have had these months to settle in and I had to learn that I was to wait on God's timing for the job. Looking back now it all makes sense and it's just another reminder that He had a plan all along.

So more about my new job... I will be the marketing coordinator for Generations Chiropractic and Wellness Center. It is a small family practice, which I really like! The doctors are husband and wife and really young. They also have a patient education coordinator and a receptionist, but thats it. 
I had to go through a pretty intense interview process... I interviewed with them four times and one was a working interview. I actually had to go out and meet with clients for half a day. I was nervous going into the working interview, but I thought it was a great idea for not only them to be able to find out who is good at the job, but for me to see if I enjoyed it.
Not only do they do chiropractic care, but they specialize in wellness and healthy lifestyle. One of the doctors specializes in pediatrics and pregnancy, and the other in wellness. They do nutrition plans for their clients, along with exercise programs. It is a lot more than just back adjustments. I am a very active person and love healthy/organic foods, which they are very focused on, so I feel like I will fit right in! 

I start Monday and am so excited to get started! I haven't officially been told my hours. The office has weird hours.. they open at 7 and don't leave until 7, and work half days on Wednesday's and they are closed fridays!! I will be working different hours, but I think I will really like not being on a 8-5 schedule every week!! 

So that's about all that as being going on around here. We went out to celebrate yesterday at Red Lobster... Yum!!! Were were going to go play golf, but my allergies have been horrible, so Mitch went and I just stayed home. I am so excited the course is back open and I am sure we will be going out very soon :)

Today Mitch worked, so I just hung around the house, but it was so beautiful I spent a lot of the day outside. I went on a run and was able to wear shorts and a tank top! It was perfect! I think I am going to have to switch out my closets to my spring clothes and sandals very soon!!! I also made a trip to wal-mart and I was so excited when I saw the girl scouts selling COOKIES!! I love girl scout cookies, so I had to get some! When Mitch got home he said he had a surprise for me and he had bought girl scout cookies as well Ha! These are our favorite kinds!


Tonight we cooked a pork tenderloin and biscuits. And while I am talking about food... I have a website to share. It is one of my favorite websites and I always forget to post it. It has such good recipes and I love trying new things from it. I got the biscuit recipe that I made for dinner tonight from it. They were homemade cream biscuits, and they turned out delicious.



They also made a bunch, so I was able to put them in the freezer and I can just pop them in the oven whenever we want! 
Here's the website... Smitten Kitchen I hope you enjoy it as much as I do! 

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and enjoy this beautiful weather!!
