Good news, Good news!

Several weeks ago, Jim interviewed for an upper level management position within WMT ISD. He not only had a few different interviews, both one on one with top managers but a group interview as well. He even had to submit a resume. He had not written a resume since he interviewed with WMT back in college. ;) He told me he was not sure if he would get it (though I know how smart he is!!), he said several people had interviewed. However, he surprised me after coming home one evening with the job offer letter!

I was so proud of him! Jim is now a Technical Expert in the Distribution and Logisitics Division of WMT Information Systems. There are only five TEs in his division of ISD. It is a higher level management position than he was in before, which he is now required to carry the WMT issued Blackberry and attend the special Saturday morning meetings once a month. Exciting stuff! Again, I am so proud of Jim and how hard he works for our family!
Jim received several phone calls from co-workers that night and even his ol' buddy Bryan who used to work at WMT found out from his friends. Jim decided to pour himself a glass of his Johnny Walker Blue Label while he talked with all his friends. ;)
Elizabeth was born the day after we found out so we delayed our celebration until just a few weeks ago. With Elizabeth's heart surgery a success as well, we had so much to be thankful for! We had dinner at Petit Bistro with Beth Ann and Christian O. Jim's friend Christian also received a promotion to Technical Expert so we celebrated together!

Enjoying a yummy dinner at Petit Bistro!

Thanks to Beth Ann and Christian O. for joining us!
