Our New Business

Michael and I have a new business called American Porta Can of Texas. It is a portable toilet company. We took over for the previous owners July 1st. Our dear friends built this business in 9 years and it is very successful. It has been pretty busy for us since July1st. The 4th of July was crazy with new deliveries and a family reunion in the mix. We have enjoyed it so far! The business itself is not hard. The hardest part for us has been juggling a 2, 4, and 5 year in the middle of it all. For Michael the hardest part is learning a routine and mentally switching gears from a corporate job to a blue collar job. I answer the phones and run errands and Michael is operating it all. We feel like God has opened this door for us and we are excited to see where He will take this company. We know that it is going to expand quickly with God's favor!
Michael is still working at Riata Technologies in Austin and is not planning on leaving. We will be doing this on the side and then we will hire people to help us when it gets too big for us!

This is a very busy time of the year for me. Awana starts in a month. I am working on getting plans made for teachers and Directors. Ryen will be a Spark and Amaris will be a Cubbie.

Homeschooling plans are also in full swing! Whoo! Pray for good time management for me in Jesus Name!

Can you add anything else to your plate? You are the busiest person I know. Don't overload yourself.

Love ya!

I know...I feel the same way. Can you come live me with? Before too long, I may need to hire a teacher! :) Or, we can escape from all of this and go the beach....please!
