Wow...What A Crazy Weekend

I was so excited for late-start Friday this last weekend, an entire two hours to sleep in. Psyche!! We were woken up to a phone call from Andrew's brother-in-law informing us that their 'baby mama' was in labor. I was very excited for them! Their little boy, my nephew, was born that morning weighing 7 lbs. 1 oz. Hyram Jacquith Martin Buchanan is his name. He is so adorable! I love holding him when I go visit. Can't wait/totally can wait to have a kid of my own!

Well anyway, so work was way nice. I got there about 9 in the morning, then as soon as the students got there, I got to take the kids who were on level 3 and up to breakfast! I was so excited to get paid to eat! ha ha. We went to Star Cafe in Layton. It was very good for a cheap price. Once I got back, I only had like four hours of work left. What a great way to start the weekend!

I worked Saturday, so that wasn't very exciting. Sunday was church, then we went to visit Hyrum, Mom, Dad, and Baby Mama. It was a fun visit. Monday was my great-uncle's funeral. He passed away Friday, but he had been through so much that it was his time to go. I was asked to play 'Amazing Grace' on the piano while his granddaughters sang. Oh wow, what a joke that was!! The piano was a gorgeous electric baby grand, I want one in my future home so bad! I had practiced the entire weekend, but still had a few spots with bumps and scratches. When it came time to play, we hadn't rehearsed together at all. They stood on the complete opposite side of the room from me. I could hardly hear them as they 'sang.' It was so hard!! But, everyone knew we had no time to practice, so they forgave us. :)
I taught my first lesson today at CHS. I was quite nervous, but it turned out pretty well. I'm teaching science, yuck! But...it's okay, I can do it! The new chapter is on light and sound, so I played a quick video of the Blue Man Group. I love them!! I really hope I get to see them again soon. They're amazing! The rest of class the students worked on the worksheets. Bleh, I hate worksheets, but I don't really know what else to do. Hopefully I'll be able to find better, and more fun ways of teaching science.
This week is going to be a fun one, I hope. Tonight Andrew and I are going on a triple date with Justin, Maria, John, and Corissa. I'm so excited! We're going to a haunted house, not quite sure which one yet. I don't have to work Friday, but have a training to attend, yay!! Not!! Saturday the plan is to see a movie, hopefully Paranormal Activity, with Rick and Syd then go to their place for the evening playing games and whatnot. I'm very excited!
