Blessings




These past couple of months have been a whirlwhind of activity! February brought us Valentine's Day and the Father Daughter Dance which Sami looks forward to ALL year. According to Sami, "when Daddy gets on his knees and dances with me, it's the best night of my life! And when he does the robot!". I love that girl and I love that man for showing her what real love looks like! March held two birthdays-including a surprise birthday for my Mom which was priceless. I ran in my first race, a 10K in Exeter and squashed by goal time - made in 58 minutes! Cory and I spent 3 nights in San Diego to be a part of the Master Pools Guild meeting and Excellence in Design Awards banquet. Genesis Pools brought home 4 Gold Awards! I didn't fully understand or appreciate what the Guild is until experiencing it first hand. Now I am just as proud to be a part of such an elite group of builders as Cory always has been. But even more so, I am extraordinarily proud of my husband. Being there to see all of the hard work pay off was phenomenal, it really was! Then this week a man by the name of Randy Dukes came with some others to film one of Cory's pools under construction for training purposes. Mr. Dukes is huge in in the pool industry, a leader and expert in plaster/quartz and various other products for pools. It was quite the honor to have him here on one of Cory's jobs and Cory gained massive amounts of knowledge during the visit.
So, now you can see why this post had to be titled "blessings" because that it what all of this has been...blessings from God plain and simple! And we give Him all the glory!
