Brandon has been working at Signal Hill Petroleum now for a year and feels much more confident in what he does; repairing oil wells. Brandon also finished college in December...yeah! I am very proud of him, for he accomplished his B.A. at Vanguard University while working full time and attending night classes. We are very happy to have the extra time together and for the first time in our relationship not having homework in either of our lives!
Brandon is running the Napa Valley Marathon March 1st! That is 26.2 miles! This is huge for him -for those of you who know Brandon, you know that running is not his choice of enjoyment. He actually signed up for it because I was planning on running it. I was very excited for it but due to an impending injury I am not able to do it. But Brandon is still determined and I am very impressed with his motivation.
Brandon continues to be a loving husband, father, and dog owner and we all adore him.
As for me, I am loving motherhood and feel so blessed to stay home with Bailey. Being with her all the time makes me confident in providing for her needs and being able to watch every little step of her growth. I get up at 5am now so I can hit the gym, shower, do my devotions with breakfast and coffee all before Bailey is awake! I love getting up early now which is weird, because I love to sleep in too. But I crave time to exercise, read, and relax.
I attend a mom's Bible study on Tuesday mornings at RockHarbor church called 'Nurture.' It is a nice time with other mom's to talk and have some quality fellowship.
I am also attending a RockHarbor class on becoming a counselor for the church. It's on Thursday nights so Brandon and Bailey get 'father-daughter time.' Hopefully after completing the training and interviews I will get to counsel people through RockHarbor. It is not a big time commitment so it will be a great ministry for me to be a part of and get some experience in the counseling field.
Here is some footage from my and Brandon's last date night over the weekend.
Brandon had a ridiculously good first game.

I love the Bridgmans. There, I said it. Natalie and I feel like big jerks for overlooking B's graduation in December. We know how hard you worked B-Smoke and we're really proud of/happy for you!
Sara, you're stirring a desire in us to start waking up early too. I'm sure it would be a true blessing if we're able follow thru on it.
Lastly, I'm glad I didn't choose bowling as one of the events for my upcoming 30th B-day sports extravaganza...there is no way I could compete with Brandon's skillz.
Hope to see you all soon.
You guys are so cute :) 26 miles huh? I can barely run 1.
Take care ;)
