Hello again! And Happy Mother's Day! It is good to be home and have a little time to relax. My mom is already cracking the whip on the wedding planning though. Not a second to waste. Anyway I headed home Tuesday morning and just bummed around Tuesday and slept in Wednesday. I spend a few hours Wed and Thurs making bread. It's much more fun than sitting around doing nothing. Anyway, so Monday before I left I decided to go by and see about the clinic receptionist job in the speech clinic in the Reynolds for next year, since I was supposed to have heard already. The teacher said that she still needed to meet with the other teachers, but would let me know by Tuesday morning at the latest. So, as you can imagine, by Thursday I had pretty much decided that they had picked someone else. But my Dad (who came home from Orlando Thurs) said that I should drop her one more email saying "Thanks for considering me" etc etc. So I did, and Friday morning I had a email from her. I expected it to say something like "Thanks for applying, BUT" but instead it said "Thanks for applying AND...we are offering the position to YOU!" I didn't know what to do, so I just started running around in circles in the den, jumping up and down. I think that was followed by phone calls and singing. Anyway, so that was excitement #1 of Friday. A little later on I decided to call and find out the status of my wedding dress. They said "Well, your dress should be in about....right now." She said they had just received a shipment that morning so she went and opened the boxes and my dress was there!!! So...tomorrow morning I am going in for my official fitting! So excited! I get to dance around in my wedding dress again. I mean, hey, you don't get to wear it very much, so I gotta enjoy the time I do get to spend wearing it. Tomorrow one of my bridesmaids is coming with me so we can see what bridesmaids dresses look good next to my wedding dress. So that was excitement #2 of Friday. Friday night my family went out for Japanese food and my Mom and I shared a vento box (Hope I spelled it right). Anyway, it was so cute and totally made me think of the Iron Chef. I even tried sushi! Saturday night I got to hang out with my friends Katie and Jill. It was fun fun fun! Katie got me the cutest wallet! While there aren't very many people left in Houston that I talk to, the few I do are very special to me and are wonderful friends! Church was good this morning and my brother even sat with the family for Mother's Day. Anyway, so far so good. Looking forward to reading about how everyone else's summer is treating them so far. Love you all! Have a wonderfully God-blessed day!

List five odd, random, strange FACTS about you. Then tag 5 other people. 1. We used to have a turtle until we left it outside in a box too long and it became fried turtle. 2. I always thought only old people got married, but now I'm getting married next December and shoot! I don't feel old at all. 3. I used to think Steak n' Shake meant you put a steak in a bad and added your own spices, and...SHAKE SHAKE SHAKE! 4. I'm just dying to live somewhere where it snows, yet every time I'm in the snow and ice, I inevitably slip and fall on my butt, feet straight up in the air and all (I think I'd end up dying from falling so many times). 5. I'm white, I try to dance, but I have no rhythm. Wait, thats not random, that's just fact. =) Okay, well, I'm really bad about thinking about those kinds of things on the spot, but I hope you enjoy. I tag: Josh, Jess T, Alana, Michelle H, Shannon Have a wonderful Christmas everyone! God bless you all!
