Announcing Deputy Rork

Journaling reads "These are just a few of the emotions we have felt since the reality of your dream finally becoming true. Oct 9, 2008. It was the day you got the call from the chief, you are cleared, plan on going to the Academy Oct 26th. I am so happy that you tried & tried again for 5yrs. It has finally paid off. You are on your way to fulfilling your dreams. I'm proud of you."

We both can't believe it is truly happening, Andy has a job with Livingston County Police provided he passes all classes...which I have no doubt he will. He will be leaving at the end of the month and he will be in school for 12 weeks, he is allowed to come home on the weekends. We are both elated, but I think Andy is just tired from all the emotions of this process. He has already jumped through many hoops to get here and has many more to come. It will be such an amazing life change for our whole family. And of course the boys think its pretty cool!


Trent on vacation getting his first face painting!

The pic says it all, we got this car when Mason was still in the womb and now look how big he is and it is FINALLY paid off. I wanted to scrap this car, we have raised babies to boys with this car. It has taken us speedily to the ER with both pregnancies it took us diligently to see our baby every day in the NICU all the many appointments after that. It seems so silly to get so sentimental over a car, but you really have to appreciate the reliabilty. I just hope it keeps continuing to be reliable, beacuse we sure can't afford another!........but I guess If we have any more ER visits we can just use Andy's patrol car and hit the lights and siren......he..he...just kidding honey!
