The Wilson Avenue Adventures

                                         And there it is. We still believe in the American Dream. Both Darlene and I have owned a house before, but for both of us this feels like our first time. We have been looking forward to this for a few years now. Our hard work is paying off and we will have our own place again. The kids will no longer be sharing a room and we will have plenty of room for our families and friends to visit us. Our closing date is next week. The house needs a bit of work. It is dirty and needs a little bit of new paint, but we are excited to start working on it. My goal is to use this blog as a way of sharing our adventures. To show before and after photos on our work and possibly some videos to go along with them. Subscribe to my YouTube Channel

Many of you know that I had gone back to school over the past few years.  This last December I graduated from Mid-State Technical College with my Associate's Degree in Information Technology as a Networking Specialist. By the end of the month I will be using this degree, working with Infitech .  So if you know of any businesses looking to have their network needs met.  Let me know!  They do also provide residential services...

I have been at the dispatch center for 6 years.  A lot has changed in that time.  It will be difficult and I am very nervous for the change, but I am even more exc...

I have been using some vacation time and such the last few weeks to stay home on the weekends to help out with the kids and whatnot.  I gotta say, it has been pretty nice.  The Sunday after Thanksgiving we went out to  Hess Tree Farm .  We got a perfect little tree to put on a small table in the office area.   Here is a video of us decorating it!  It is amazing the things you can do while holding a baby! It smells so good in the front room now.  The twins love looking at the lights on the tree. I think I have everyone's Christmas gift taken care of.  Looking forward to everyone opening their gifts now. Lots of things coming up as well.  December 15th is a big day.  I graduate!  Time to start applying more for other jobs!  Darlene is also going in for her hernia surgery that day.  Hopefully that goes well.  She won't be able to lift the kids for 6 weeks.  That is going to be interesting.....  Going...
