This One Day....

One day. One half day, I went out to sale with Tyler. I must admit, I could never go out and do what he does every day. Not just him, but anyone that does door to door sales of any kind. After just two hours of going out with him, I broke down into tears. I wasn't even the one doing the selling! It's definitely an emotionally demanding job. You can't let people get inside your head and forget whatever it is they say to you the 15 seconds you're on their doorstep. Yeah...not exactly easy for me.

I don't know how people do it, but I certainly tip my hat off to them. Especially my amazing husband! I know it's not his favorite thing in the world to be doing, he'd much rather be at home working on the family farm, that I know. But we knew this was a good opportunity for us and he has taken the responsibility on of pressing forward each day and giving it his all, even at a job that isn't exactly his favorite. He's doing all he can to provide for our little family and I couldn't be more proud of him and all his hard work!

This last weekend, the big boss was in town and took us all out to PF Changs for dinner. After we all got done eating, Josh handed out some awards. Now let me take just a minute to brag about my dear hubby :) They handed out one specific award that I'm sure glad Tyler received. It's called the Rudy Award. Now, if any of you have seen the movie Rudy you'll understand a little bit more about it.

Josh (this big boss) and Brandon (the manager of Tyler's team) chose one guy on the team to receive the Rudy Award. Tyler was the  lucky one on the Rubbish Rats to receive it. Why might you ask? Because they awarded it to the one guy that's always doing what he's supposed to, trying to be positive all the time, pushing through the tough days, and just giving it his all. I must say, Tyler has definitely worked hard to earn that. Even if he didn't know he was working for it, he sure did deserve it.

All the awards he got that night

 I'm one proud wife! I love you Tyler Ross. Keep up the good, hard work!!

That same night, we also got the joy of playing a little joke on our families. In the fortune cookie that Tyler opened that night, all it read on it was "boy." I took a picture of it and told Ty we had to see how this little joke would play out. We took a couple more pictures and sent them away to our families. Let's just say it definitely played out.We got lots of phone calls and texts that night and next morning! No, we definitely aren't really expecting nor are we ready to any time soon, but I'm excited for the day that we someday will be. We certainly never would tell our families over a text either! Someday friends, someday :)
