So, Pete has sold ANOTHER RV, and has a split sale on anther one! That brings us to 5 1/2 all together, in just over a month! I am SO amazed at how God is working in Pete's life! At first I wasn't too sure of this company or this career move for Pete, but more and more, I am seeing that this IS God's plan for Pete. On another note, Pete had to do some more training at the head office on Monday. I guess a bunch of the guys were talking about their girlfriends/wives or what have you. They all started pulling pictures out of their wallets of "their gals" and knowing that Pete is a newlywed, they asked to see a picture of HIS wife. So, Pete pulls out a picture of me, and he said they were shocked at how pretty I was, and some of them said, "you get to go home to that?" "You LUCKY guy!" Makes me feel kind of special ;)

Saturday, Pete and I went to the funeral of his friend, Phil. Phil was a big car guy, and the "funeral' was held at Mission Raceway Park, in one of the buildings there.

Saturday, I woke up with almost no voice and a slight fever. I was a trooper and went to Phil's funeral with Pete. We had to stand in the damp cold and rain, since it was standing room only. I'm sure this didn't help my cold at all. On Sunday, we were planning on going to church, but along with my sore throat, no voice and fever, I had a swollen right eye! Pete decided to take me to the walk in clinic, instead of church, and I was glad he did! The dr. gave me really strong antibiotics for my cold and antibiotic drops for my eye. He said I had a stye in my eye. Sunday, I pretty much slept. Same for Monday. Tuesday I started to feel a bit better, since the antibiotics started working. Today, I was feeling really good and went to work.

Tonight I got to go out for coffee with my friend Beth, who is in town for Easter with her family to celebrate Easter with her parents. Beth and I use to go to church together back in the day, and we remain friends :) It was awesome to see her and catch up.

Well, today was REALLY awesome! Pete sold ANOTHER RV today, and it was in the new, not used lot! Man, that guy just makes me SO proud. So, in case you are not keeping tabs, that's 3 RV's in one month! Unfortunately, the bosses there are not that appreciative of this fact, and all he's gotten is a "nice going" from the boss. Pete's new goal is to sell at least one RV a day! I say, "go for it". The other day when he sold one, another salesman who's been there for years, sold three in that one day. Of course HE got all sorts of praise for it. Next Monday, for three days, they are sending Pete so get his air brake course. It's in Abbotsford. Many of the newer units, have air brakes, and if you purchase one, you have to have this license. Pete needs this course to be able to show the RV's to clients and to move the units around the lot. He's looking forward to his air brake course :) This evening we took the girls to see "Horton Hears A Who." They loved it. We were not sure how much "J" would enjoy it, since she is 11. We were sure that "K" would enjoy it, as she is 7. It turns out, they both LOVED it, which was awesome! Somehow, I managed to lose my voice today, and I feel like poo. Tomorrow we're off to Pete's friends' funeral at 1pm. It's outdoors at Mission Raceway (don't ask), so I hope we will have sunshine, or at least not rain :)

I am SOOOOO proud of Pete! He called me about a half hour ago, to let me know that he JUST sold his second RV! That's TWO in one month! They had told him, when they hired him, that they didn't expect him to sell anything in the first three months. Well, I guess he proved them wrong, BIG TIME! I pray that the company will see what a great asset Pete is to them. I feel that God is truly blessing Pete, and this is the "season" for Pete. God is showing Pete His faithfulness, and I pray that He continues to bless Pete's life.

It's official!!!!!!!! My wonderful husband is officially licensed to sell vehicles!!!! I couldn't be prouder than Pete, as I am right now! About a month ago, Pete had to go to a two day course, here in Abbotsford, and take a test on the second day. In order to be able to sell any type of vehicle on any lot, you have to have a special license, and to take the test to get this license, you have to pay $400.00, go to the course, AND pass the test! Pete passed!!!! I am SO proud of him. He has totally embraced this new job, and all the responsibilities that go with it, including all the tests!! I should explain that the reason he looks mad in the picture, is because when he got there and signed in for the course, they said, "look here", and he looked, and that's when they took his picture, without warning him! Luckily WE all know how handsome he is, and what a wonderful smile he has. He has to renew this license EVERY year, and pay $150.00 each time he has to renew it. It's a money grab, if you ask me, but I guess he has no choice, as long he's in this industry. I'm just SO proud of him!!!
