Time to Celebrate!!

Some people celebrate getting a job, we celebrate quitting one. Brett and his business partner sold their business about five months ago, and Brett stayed on to work for the new owner. We were warned that the transition often proves too difficult, this turned out to be the case. Brett quit last week, and we headed to Disneyland for a day of family celebration. It was a wonderful day as always, oh how we love Disneyland!








My Tower of Terror buddy, no one, including Brett, will join me on Tower of Terror except for Jacob. Thank you Jacob! Now we just have to get him on Screamin!


We call it the Magical Thumb, and it really is.. I don't think Natalie cried all day long thanks to the Magical Thumb!

What's Brett doing now?

Maren said...

Happpy Job Quitting . . . that's the way to celebrate!

Heather said...

Don't even listen to the first comment - Utah is way too overrated - you just stay put like you're supposed to!;0)

But, seriously, does Brett have a back-up plan? We don't want you going anywhere!

Ashley said...

Good job and congratulations. That takes some serious guts to walk away from something that doesn't fit to take on whatever it is that comes next-AND to celebrate it! I am excited to find out what is next for you guys.

Love that you know how to stay positive!! Glad you had a great day at Disneyland. I'm with Heather - just stay put. All of that family is probably really tempting though . . . Stay Strong!!

You can totally see the difference in Brett...that job was absolutely dragging him down. On to bigger and better. Good idea to go to the most magical place on earth...you guys look like you had a blast! (although Christian freaked out--what was he going to do one day in school without Jake?!)

Wow, what a change! Congrats to Brett! I LOVE that Natalie sucks her thumb. That is the cutest bad habit ever. I so wanted my kids to do it and not one did! Ha!

Jen said...

She is adorable, thumb and all! Maybe peer pressure will work for Jacob...all three of my kids love Screamin' This last time we went was her first time giving into us...but she loved it. The other day when we were driving around town, she was doing the Screamin' count down!
