The other big news is.....

KEVIN GOT A NEW JOB!!!!

A few weeks ago NBC 26 (the tv station Kevin used to work at here in Green Bay) called Kevin out of the blue and told them they were hiring full-time directors. Now I have to tell you that Kevin did not apply for this job or anything...they called him!! They however did know Kevin was back in Green Bay and when Kevin was laid off talked to NBC about any jobs but Kevin was offered Ameriprise first. I know most of you that have talked to Kevin about NBC 26 and why he left 3 years ago and what was happening in the company. Well things there have been changing..for the better as we understand. They took away the sports department and just had all the news on sports come from Milwaukee..well they are slowly working their way back to getting sports. And just other news things that are turning around there. So anyways...Kevin had an interview a couple weeks ago...there was either a position that was full time working weekends or a monday-friday shift. The guy that interviewed Kevin had told him that he was over qualified for the weekend job and perfect for the mon-fri job. So a week later..Kevin got a call and was offered the mon-fri job!! He accepted and he starts TOMORROW!!

Kevin has realized with having the VIP lube job and working at Ameriprise that he missed working in news. Working at the TV station in Milwaukee was very boring for him but he loved working at the one in La Crosse and here at Green Bay. He is still going to school (which starts Aug. 18th) and hoping that once he is done his business management degree will help him go higher at NBC 26.

It just makes me so happy and proud that NBC called him out of the blue..they wanted him very badly for this job and worked with him so he would accept it!! They love his work and just loved having him as an employee back then. Im just so excited and happy for Kevin! Some of his friends still work there too and they are all very excited to be working with Kevin again! So that makes me even more happy that he is back with his buddies!

His new hours are monday thru friday 1:45pm-10:45pm in case any one ever needs to get a hold of him try before 1:30pm.

Kevin quit Ameriprise last Monday.So we had a nice week to spend together! We went swimming, got ice cream, when it was 100 degrees outside we sat in the A/C and played, Kevin and I went on a date night for our anniversary (we went to get drinks and see The Hangover Part 2) we went to the drive inn movie theater last night and saw Mr Poppers Penguins and Transformers 3. It was very nice week and now he is very excited to start his new job at NBC 26!

I know Kevin doesn't read this very much or at all really but Kevin I am so proud and excited and happy for you! We love you very much! This wife gets her bragging rights back that her husband is a director at a TV station! :)
