I am going to try and make this short and right to the point :).... Mid September I was joking with one of our friends about getting Justin a job at his work cause he was making GOOD money and he came back and said "ok, I will talk to my uncle and get back to you" I was like "oh, really?" So I called and told Justin about what was going on and he was EXCITED I thought he would be upset that I did this HAHAHA...That afternoon Justin got a call from our friends Uncle and told him he was hired if he would take the job, he told him about the job and everything that went with it and I thought it was too good to be true so I told Justin I wanted to hear from the "BIG BOSS" to make sure this was legit. Cause to take this opportunity would be BIG and change all our lives.....So around 3 hours later the BIG BOSS called Justin and everything was legit.... We had to make a decision by the next day....we sat down and talked about the Pros and Cons about it and there was only 1 Con and like 35 Pros....The Con was this job was in OKLAHOMA!!!! We decided to take this leap and make one of the BIGGEST decisions of our lives to better our families lives. Justin gave his week to his job and was off and on the road to Oklahoma 9 days after excepting the job offer. The kids and I stayed in California to pack up the house. That was a very HARD goodbye knowing I wouldn't see him for like 3 months until the BIG MOVE....Well then Justin with the help of our AMAZING friend Bryan suprised me by flying in for my birthday :) that was AWESOME.....ok so I got to see him like 3 times within those 3 months :) Then the BIG DAY came....Dec. 6th & 7th we had Family and Friends help us pack a BIG 26foot semi and we were on the road to our new Chapter Dec. 9, 2010..... It was very hard to leave everything and ALL we knew but it was time for a change and time to better "US"
This move has been one of the BEST decisions we have made...no regrets at all... Justin seems to amaze me every day....He is busting his butt to make our lives the best....He truly is a dream come true... Even though it's very hard to be away from everyone and everything in Cali we are taking it one day at a time and loving everything there is here in Oklahoma.... We are plannig to buy a house soon....This is where we were meant to be, this is where we were suppose to raise our family!!!!
THANK YOU TO ALL OUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY THAT HAVE BEEN SUPPORTIVE AND VERY POSITIVE THROUGH THIS HARD AND REWARDING DECISION WE HAVE MADE...WE COULDN'T HAVE DONE IT WITHOUT Y'ALL ;)
WE LOVE YOU
THE CLELAND CLAN
