Well, for lack of blogs in July I thought I would fill you guys in on how Daniel is doing. I need to do a blog on my awesome week at VBS last week but the task is daunting with all that went on during the week and all the pics I took.
Daniel has enjoyed fixing up the two homes we have lived in. Our first home was in Murray Hill and was in great need of updates and remodeling. It was a tiny 2 bedroom, 1 bath but it was perfect for the "3 of us" lol. We had fun working on it together and turning it to our home.
Even after we had Kaylee we were prepared to stay in our 2/1 for a couple more years but the Lord had a blessing in store for us. Six months after Kaylee was born while at church a couple asked us if we knew anyone looking for a new home. They told us it was a 3/2 and they were going to sale it themselves. Daniel said it was worth looking at for ourselves. We walked through with the owners, Daniel was very confident that we would buy the home; he didn't even open a closet or look at the tubs/showers!! It was defiantly a lesson in faith and submission on my part.
Daniel was able to put some of the finishing touches on our first home and we were able to sell it and purchace our second home in 30 days! The Lord was in it! We were even able to keep the extra corner lot beside our home in Murray Hill.

Daniel has finally settled in on a job at Elkins Constructors. He has been there now for well over 2 years and he loves what he does. He graduated from UNF with his civil engineering degree in 2004 but decided he found building construction to be what he wanted for now. He has worked as an Assistant Project Manager on 2 completed projects; a 58 unit condo at jax beach and a office complex over off JTB. He is currently working on a commercial building out at Nocatee in St Johns County. Below is a slide show of his first completed project, Peir Point.

The pic of Nathan and Daniel is cute. And I don't know about that submission lesson...I think I would have HAD to look in the closets lol!
Glad he's liking his job at Elkins.
Your old house in Murray Hill was so pretty. I love old houses. We looked to buy there, but ended up buying in Lake Shore, our house was built in 1933. I love it!
Are you guys still in the Westside?
Hey Ash! I know the marketing chic at Elkins, Tabitha-we have meetings there sometimes. You must be so proud of Daniel. :)
