My baby was in a movie.

So I was looking at pictures of my sweet Emma when I could swear I had seen the same likeness in a movie....Emma is Boo from Monsters Inc. See if you agree...

YEAY FOR SARAH!!

Haha...Sorry I tried to fool you guys....But congrads to Sarah...But I must say Sarah follows me everywhere..First ABA (i didn't want the job grant you)...then Catawba (I taught Kindergarten, she later came and taught 2 yr olds), then I guess the next job we shared we were hired on the same day (Boys Town)...Then i thought i was safe by working at an archaeology firm...How would Sarah follow me here??? Become the nanny (the position I originally applied for and did not get)....Truthfully...I love working with Sarah and I am blessed to have had so many jobs that i could enjoy Sarah's presence....God is good!!


On another note, yesterday (Saturday November 15th) was Sarah's 25th birthday...Sarah has been a blessing in my life and I can not describe how happy I am that she is my wife. Sarah is a very special woman with a heart for God, people, and children. God placed us together before time and I am pretty sure God gave Jesus a high five when they saw how perfect Their match was going to be..God is good!! I Miss You Already Sarah and Emma!!!

On an entirely different note i have been collecting State quarters since they started making them...but took a hiatus after getting married and working but recently began again (being a delivery driver has helped speed my process of catch up). I now am only missing 3 of the 50...(California, North Dakota, and Hawaii)...I'm sure they will pop up eventually but I thought I'd share :c).

Matt's Random Update

  • Still Work 40 hrs at "the Search" and 35+ at "the Pit" (it helps me to give them fun nicknames). 75+ hrs total
  • Told Pita Pit that I would be cutting my hours after thanksgiving. They are trying to convince me to still work 3 days...We will see....
  • My right knee is getting A LOT better..though still tender when knealing on it and when i scrape it on the car door (did that last night).
  • Now for some odd reason my right foot has swollen for a reason I can not recall or explain....The minds at Earth Search say it is because it drained from my knee to my foot...I don't know if it works that way...Who knows??
  • Sarah's Mom (Pam) and adopted Aunt Kay have stormed into the Big Easy for a wild week of attending a Beth Moore taping (lady that does bible studies...I hear she's good)...
  • Emma has refused to attend (she's already a rebel) so I took her Monday....Tuesday our Friend from Church took her....Wednesday is Daddy day again...Thursday Friend from Church...Friday Daddy day till 10pm when he goes into work....Ill work 8am-4am that day...Is my math wrong or is that 22 hrs out of 24...But Emma is not work :c)...shes a blessing!....with a sweet smile and loud cry.
  • I have successfully slept on the couch with Sarah for 4 nights now without having to move somewhere else in the middle of the night (I normally get uncomfortable and have to roll around..not possible while sharing a couch)
  • I don't think I can hold in Sarah's exciting news anymore!!! Sooo... here it is.. Sarah and I are......................................................................................................................................HAHA..Sorry Guys..I don't give up Exciting news that is not exclusively mine to release yet. Its going to change our lives though.

Its not broken!

Sarah and I decided on Wednesday that I needed some professional Advice on my Bum knee...So we decided that if Sarah did not go back to SC for her planned trip in a week or so that we could afford to let me go to the doctor. So i called and made an appointment for Thursday afternoon ( I love having a doctor you can call at 4pm and make an appointment for the next day)...Well Thursday at Earth Search someone asked to see my knee and everyone gathered around and collectivly decided after touching, poking, and staring, that i had in fact broken my patella. So off to the doctor I go with this new found knowlege that my knee cap was broken...So after all the nurses were done oggling Emma (I dont blame them) they looked at my knee and off to the X-ray i went. As i was laying on the X-ray table i decided that as cool as it would be to say i broke my patela, i did not actually want to walk on crutches for another stint of my life (I cut the bottom of my foot the day after Sarah and I got home from our Honeymoon and was on crutches for like 2 months). I also figured out that it would be simply to hard to work at my current pace (75+ hrs a week) with a broken body part...So i prayed that it would not be broken and when I returned to the exam room the doctor told me that it was not broken, just brusied and i needed to bend it. I replied "but it hurts"...He replied "You are a baby when your hurt"....Grrrr to him. But he made it up to me because when we were checking out he had written on my chart NO Charge.. How awesome is God!!! So i bend my knee now, and everytime it hurts i say "come on Matt dont be a baby!" And Sarah can go to SC now! I'll miss my girls but I know they will have fun!
