Busy People

So I'm at work again... but I thought I would take a minute to make an update of our lives. This may be a little long... so feel free to skip it... but if you are interested in what is going on.... here you go.

Scott has been working really really hard at school this week. He has gone to school early most days and stayed late too. Saturday he was on campus the whole day!

Wait I'm getting ahead of myself. So Monday and Tuesday I worked and then got to watch Dancing with the Stars at night. Monday I also worked on a bunch of teaching applications for next year. Wednesday was a teacher fair at BYU so I went down to campus with Scott. I had a couple of interviews that day. They went well.... but there are a lot of history teachers looking for jobs, and not that many job openings with budget cuts... we'll see what happens. The response at all the public schools was that the job postings will be later than usual until they know more about the budget. Wednesday Scott stayed on campus to study while I took DaNae driving for a bit. We are teaching her how to drive a stick so that she can use our car over the summer while we are in Virginia. She is doing good... she just needs confidence.

Thursday I worked all day. Friday Scott and I had our date night. Scott called me at work and asked me to go on a date with him. He said it was only a date if he asked me! He let me plan dinner. I debated over a few things... but it was such a beautiful day that I decided to run to the store to buy some steaks and we had a BBQ out on our balcany. It was so much fun! I had dinner ready for him when he got home from school and then we went to the Roller Rink. It was fun to go roller skating together. We were a little annoyed with all the little kids on scooters that kept cutting us off. One time we were holding hands and some kid tried to go in between us...... It was a little crowded.... but we still had lots of fun. We got there in time to do the Hokey Pokey! It was a cosmic night too! It was cool to skate with the lights going. It reminded me of the times that I went roller skating when I was little! So fun! We stopped on the way home for an Icey at Target. Then we came home and fell asleep on the couch watching movies.

On Saturday Scott was on campus all day and I cleaned the house.... it was very needed. I was doing so well cleaning the house once a week on Saturday morning until about a month ago.... then I started having things to do every Saturday. I got to hang out with my parents for a little in the evening until Scott came and got me.

Sunday we enjoyed sleeping in! We left for church a little early becuase 4 wards were meeting together so that they could change the boundries. We are in the same ward, but really only our complex stayed. The rest of our old ward is now in two other wards.... so they really split us up. We are being joined by another group of apartments that used to be a branch. We are meeting at the same time and place, so for us it is just the people who have changed. It looks like next week we may just have sacrament meeting as they get organized, since alot of the leadership in our ward are now in other wards.

Sunday Scott and I enjoyed the time to have fun and relax. The temple dedication was going on, but we didn't get tickets cause they didn't have enough for everybody in our ward. We had a yummy dinner and then finished the 6th Harry Potter book! It is so fun to read together. I can't wait to start book 7 with Scott... but that may have to wait until after finals. We also watched the Amazing Race! It was nice to spend time together.

So remember how I said it was so beautiful on Friday! well today it is gross... it is snowing..... Silly Utah! It is spring... but I guess Utah didn't get the memo....

Sorry this is so long. Hope you enjoyed the update of our week... I am going to try to do better at updating again!
