What a month!!!

Ok... Here it goes. I want to bring you through the last month starting around July 18th and up to the present. It was a life changing month. Here it is.... In sort of order.

1. Associate Team Leader - I was promoted at work and awarded the title of Associate Team Leader. I have been working towards this for almost 2 years now at Whole Foods with training and interviewing. There are so many advantages to my new role in that I am a part and over 3 teams now and will get a lot more knowledge that will help me continue to grow. It is a smaller store but I am loving working there and growing so much. Next step is Team Leader!

2. Century 16 shooting - as I drove to work July 20 I heard the news on the radio. Just 2 miles from our house there was the worst mass shooting on US soil and that put the spotlight of the world on our neighborhood. One of the victims went to our church and many others affected as well. It was surreal to have all the major media in our town.

3. Someone's got a birthday I wonder who? - Yep, I turned 36. It feels pretty good. These last few years I have really begin for the first time feeling more comfortable in my own skin. Things are going great for the Halls right now and I couldn't be happier. I am so blessed and just love seeing my family grow and succeed.

4. O Boy, O Boy- Last week my wife and I found out that we are going to have a baby boy! We are beyond excited to welcome in a son. Even more so that everything looks healthy and on track. We picked the name Jude Bradley Hall. Cindy came up with it and it is perfect. We now just have to wait until December 20!!!

5. My Sweet Love - I am amazed by Bethany everyday. She has officially become a toddler. She has the greatest personally of anyone I have ever meet. One of the things Bethany loves to do is sing and dance. She is loaded with musical talent. She is always putting on shows. She just moved to a new room with a big girl bed and everything. Be prepared, if you come over, she will want to show you her room. O, and in 2 weeks she will turn 2!! I am so proud to be that little girls dada!!!

As for Cindy and I... Well we are just really enjoying life and every minute of our time together.
