Starting my new job!

Hi everyone - sorry again for such a delay, but things have just been slightly crazy around our place with the Christmas season in full swing. This blogging idea is a lot harder to keep up with than either of us thought it would be.

Anyway, I just wanted to share a little bit about the recent changes in my life. Back on December 1, I started a new job. I now work for Benefit Trust Company which is located in Overland Park. I spent nearly three full years at State Street, but the long drive everyday and lack of a place for me to move up, pushed me to look elsewhere to advance my career. Benefit Trust actually purchased a division of State Street over the summer, and that is the group I work in. Three weeks in, and I am feeling really comfortable with what I am doing. The company is really small - only 30 employees or so - but I definitely feel welcomed and hope to be able to contribute a lot of good ideas. The best part of the job is the fact that it only takes me about 15-20 minutes to get here! That's less than half the drive I had before. :)

Jess and I promise to get some pics up of our Christmas decorations and gift opening activities in the very near future. We also want to wish all of you a merry Christmas, and we pray if you are traveling, that you are staying safe and warm!
