Our First Post!

I decided that this would be an easier blog spot than my current blogging area. I will be doing posts on things that are going on in our lives and possibly just random things. I (Manda) will probably be doing all the posting because Brad is super-busy! He is currently finishing up in Masters in Differentiated Learning. He is receiving his degree from Concordia in St. Paul. Thankfully it is all online and the only time he has had to go to St. Paul was for an orientation. He will be done in May! Hurray! It is also the same college that my mom received her Masters from a few years ago. Another awesome thing that's happening in May is my younger sister, Sara will be graduating from the Nebraska Medical Center for Physical Therapy. She is currently doing clinicals right now and just finishing up in Norfolk, NE. Then she is off to Wisconsin, then to Texas, then she's done! I'm hoping she will want to move back to IA, possibly the central part so she can be closer to my brother and I. My other sister, Erika lives in Omaha w/her hubby Brad. (yes, we have 2 Brads in the fam!) I am also VERY PROUD of Era. She just recently started up her own Chocolate Company! The Chocolate Season offers truffles, gourmet apples, cookies, cakes, gourmet pretzels and much-much more! She also ships anywhere in the county. Believe me, you will not be disappointed if you order anything from her! The business is taking off like fireflys! You can check out her website: www.thechocolateseason.com. Her husband is an AMAZING photographer and designer! He started out shooting weddings and has expanded to doing family, baby and senior pictures! His work is phenomenal! His website is: www.bradleyjensen.com.  I myself have started my own business as well (Creative Design Concepts). I'm doing freelance graphic designing! I love doing it and always look forward do working on new and creative projects. My website is: www.cdcgraphicdesign.com. Well, that's all for now, more to come! 

Have an oober-fabo day!
