Congratulations, Lyle!

I am really hugely immensely proud of Lyle. If you are his friend on Facebook, you will have seen his status update about his new job. When we moved out to the Seattle area 7 months ago, I would not have anticipated this change. However, Lyle is now the Director of Operations for theory11. theory11 sells magic tricks, playing cards, and various other magic related things and Lyle has been working part-time for them for a while now. After years of working 2 jobs (60+ hours a week), he couldn't be more thrilled with the prospect of one 40 hr a week job and I couldn't be more proud of my awesome husband.

This job offer is a pretty big deal, considering that he has never seen his boss in person and the company approached him with the offer. While I make fun of the fact that he has "Magic Friends" that live in his computer, it's basically the truth. He has only met one person from the company (the computer wizard that makes their website work). Lyle has worked hard and long to become an asset to the company and prove his worth, and I am so impressed with his dedication.

Not only is his new position fully online (I'm so jealous that he gets to work from home!!!!), but they are also flying him out to Charleston, SC in a week to meet his boss and the other team members. They have already assured him that they will be playing paintball (and probably a lot of other fun things). While there will be a lot of hard work involved, he is going to be like a kid in a candy store. He loves the industry and is so excited.

Congratulations, Lyle! I am so proud of you! Thanks for being such an amazing man!

Here's to another chapter in our adventure.

Also, as a teaser for an upcoming blog post.... Lyle's birthday is coming up and I have a weekend planned for him that makes me sooooooooooooooo excited that I might burst! Stay tuned!
