Crazy Weekend

Wow, what a weekend we had!! First of all, Andrew got a job Thursday at McDonalds. I'm excited he found employment. Then, I had a job interview Friday. I was pretty pumped for it, it was a full-time teacher assistant with benefits. I tried to get one over the summer, but didn't succeed. This job was at Clearfield High School. It was perfect, health insurance, double the hours/pay, in high school (I want to teach high school), etc. I went to the interview feeling confident, and felt like it went pretty well. I left, and immediately called Andrew. I told him how it went and that we would see. I let him go, and about two minutes later I got a call from CHS. They informed me that they wanted to hire me. I was SO excited! I got through the phone call with a huge smile on my face. When I hung up I squealed, then realized I hadn't quite ended the call. Embarrassing!! I am so excited to start my new job in about two weeks, but I'm also terrified. You see, it's in the behavioral unit. In the interview he told me he's had T.A.'s get their glasses broken, been kicked, etc. I'm terrified, but still stoked!!

That night we went out to celebrate with my family. Afterwards we went to Lagoon. We went through a haunted house and got separated. Andrew was in a different group than me and had an incident with one of the characters. Oh wow, we had no idea it was going to go as far as it did, but we had to deal with it the next day at work!! Lucky for us, we have wonderful managers that backed us up completely. They all were so concerned for us, and did all they could to get it in our favor. Lucky for us, they succeeded and he's home and we're living life like usual. I have never been more grateful for great friends than I was this past weekend. Thanks again!!

I got home and heard some of the worst news possible Saturday. The American Fork Marching Band was involved in a crash coming home from the competition in Idaho. One of their leaders passed away in an attempt to save the students. Luckily, she was the only one seriously injured. My prayers and thoughts are with the American Fork Marching Band.

Sunday was a wonderful day to rest. Neither of us worked and we went to all of church then relaxed at home. It was so nice. We played Monopoly, which I totally kicked butt in :)

This weekend started on such a high note, went way low, then lower, and ended in an up'ish note. (I don't have school this week). Hope fully the week continues to be a great week for us.
