Finest Chili around?

After much debate, Aaron and I have made a decision on which job offer to accept. I'm not sure that their chili is all that great, but we have chosen the offer from GE Aircraft Engines in Cincinnati, Ohio. It was quite a toss up between GE and L3 (Waco, TX) the past couple of days. Thank you for your prayers on our behalf. There are so many things that factor into this. I felt way to young and immature to be checking out the schools in both areas, but I guess if we are to raise children in one of these areas, then this student to teacher ratio thing is a good thing to know. But, the main attraction to GE is that Aaron will have the opportunity to receive his Master's degree through a work/study program that GE offers. We are both relieved at having that big decision made and to see that light at the end of the tunnel get brighter and brighter! If you want anymore details...email me:)
As for pictures (no blog is complete without them)...can you believe that, including this one, I have two publications without a picture of Olivia? I'm sure there will be plenty to come with my trip to Utah beginning next week...


Shellee was able to bring home a flu shot for me from her work (I'm so glad I didn't have to make a special trip to the doctor's office for this:).


It hurt worse than I remember my last one...what disturbs me in this picture is the joy in Shellee's face while she is inflicting pain upon me. Those poor children at the pediatrician's office where she works...joking! I know Shellee is a great nurse!!!

ps The chili thing is because, if you haven't ever been to Cincinnati, they are kind of 'famous' for their chili. I would tend to say it's more like 'infamous' though because I don't care for it.

You Are So BRAVE!!!! Wow, what a sister you are, that's awesome. We really enjoyed these photos, and the expression on both faces are priceless :] That is very awesome and great about finally deciding on Aaron's job. It sounds like a really GREAT thing(and a Very hard choice) You'll do great. When will you have to move again?!??!?! Maybe we'll have to come visit you guys out there since we've both never been to Ohio! Thanks for the update. Take care and hope Olivia feels better soon!
Love, the Phillips~*

Yay for accepting an offer! That's such a wierd time when you're looking. Too many decisions. I only wish you found a job in GA! But congratulations!

Poor little Shayleen got her flu shot! What a brave girl. Did Shellee give you a Snoopy bandaid? (Actually, I must admit I think Shellee's the bravest one in those pictures. Being a medical professional is so cool and also so frightening to me...good job Shellee!)

By the way, we missed you guys too this week! Get well! Come play!
