Lindsay's Wedding

Wedding season has officially started for Eric and I. My cousin Lindsay's wedding was last weekend and it was beautiful! Here are a few pictures from the day!

Job, No Job, 3 Jobs...

It's been a stressful few months in the Highley household. We found out in April that Eric would not have a position at NorthWood next year. This came as no surprise since this has happened 3 out of the 4 years Eric has been at NorthWood. However, it still did not dull the shock and disbelief that he would have to start job searching again. This year as different from past years as he would not have any "outs" to be able to somehow keep the job and he was the only teacher being RIF'd. Needless to say the moral at our house was low. But we knew things would be ok in the end. I never worried that Eric wouldn't find a job...eventually. In May Eric had a few interviews. One was REALLY far away, and one was in a great location, but only a 1/2 time position. Eric got both jobs! Now we had the decision to make...which school? We made our decision and the next day Eric was going to call and accept the 1/2 time position (along with a head wrestling coach position!). Then NorthWood decided to throw us for a loop again! That very morning, they offered Eric his job back! Now we had another difficult decision to make. In the end, Eric chose to stay at NorthWood. I was relieved because I get to redo my bathroom now!
