I’ve gotten a few emails and comments asking for some elaboration in the sudden, “Hey, Texas” decision. And for good reason, as back on February 14th, I informed everyone of the decision not to take the job at Lake Pointe.
A couple days after my conversation with Wes (the media pastor), informing him of our decision, he calls and leaves me a voicemail:
“Anne, this is Wes. I’d like to screw with your life a little bit. Call me back.”
I call him back to discover there was a possible position in their communications department that was more suited to what I needed as far as my scheduling and overall intensity of the job.
A few days later, after talking with Bill, the Commuications Director, they decide to fly me back to work in their offices this past week to make sure it was a good fit.
It was incredible.
After getting to know some of the other LP staffers, as well as hanging out with the awesome people I had already met on the first trip down, it was clear this was what I had been waiting for. This was it. I received the official job offer on Wednesday and accepted!
So, there’s the rest of the story…
If you live in the KC area (or you just want to fly in – haha!) I’m having a “Welp, see you Later” party on March 23rd from 7-9pm at the Country Club Cafe in Shawnee. I’d love to see you there.

I just got a new tattoo on my birthday…it itches now…but almost all healed up!
So glad this all worked out so well
So, um is this near Dallas? Cause we have friends in Dallas, and I’m due for a trip sometime soon, and they’ve said we can come down whenever we want, and I do love Dallas, and if you’re there, and we could meet face to face.
Well that would be cool…..
Bad grammar, huh?
