A New Chapter in the Book of Schlieman

The Big Man upstairs has finally answered our prayers! I'm happy to report that Nate is now a sPORTS Product Marketing Specialist for a wonderful company called Shock Doctor, based in Plymouth, MN!!!!!! He has an amazing job description including being the main point of contact for ALL endorsed athletes of their product. He started last Monday the 16th and has already been to LA to visit Ryan Matthews of the SD Chargers and Carlos Santana of the Cleveland Indians (not the singer :) He is very happy and we are so excited for this new chapter in our lives!!!!!! With this job comes 60% travel responsibilities, so that's going to be an adjustment, but so far so good! Mackenna is VERY into airplanes these days, so it's been fun to explain to her that Daddy is in an airplane :) I took her to the airport on Saturday to pick him up after being gone for 4 days and it was one of the most heartwarming experiences we've had with her thus far. She patiently waited for Daddy and couldn't contain her excitement! !!!!!!

When Daddy came through those doors - her reaction was enough to make any grown man cry and although he didn't cry, he did get choked up :) She loves her Daddy so much and although travel will be rough, we know we can get through  - we have a pretty strong family with all we've been dealt over the years! CONGRATULATIONS to the best man I've ever known - you deserve all the success in the world and Mackenna and I are so proud of you!
