I never I thought I could have so much fun this week! It was diffenetly who I stayed with that made it that much fun:) I love those girls! We stayed up every night till midnight or later giggling and talking about everything and anything. Poor Daniel. He stayed with us too! My placement wasn't the most fun thing ever, but I got to see things that I haven't seen before. I was in a ELL classroom. Which means we taught kids who's first language wasn't english. I finally witnessed my first IEP (individualized education plan)! It was very interesting to learn how they ran there meetings and write out their plan. Monday night we had a bbq at the park and some of us played volleyball and it was a blast. We had so much fun! But the sand really hurt our feet. Tuesday night we all went to the Virgin River and ate at the buffet, watched country line dancing, played bingo and went bowling. I didn't win any money at bingo, but my friend next to me did! Lucky girl.. Bowling was hilarious too. My dear friend Monica had an interesting encounter with some guy with an accent. Long story short, he pretty much liked her body and wanted her to know! Priceless. I don't think I've ever laughed so much in my life! But the best news that came out of this week was I got a call from Mesa School Districts Special Education Director! After playing phone tag, we finally talked and their interested in me and she wants me to fly to Mesa for an interview!!!! I'm so super excited:) And the Leavitt Group wants to fly Brett down there for an interview too! So we arranged it so we flew down there together. The Leavitt Group is paying for his ticket, a hotel and a car to rent for the two days that we are there! Hopefully the district re emburses me for my ticket! But it seems like life as a funny way of figuring it self out. All of the pieces of our puzzle are finally fitting together and I couldn't be more happier about it. I was extremely heistate about moving down there, but I had a really good feeling when I was down there. Oh and another awesome thing that happened was we figured out the situation for this summer. So Brett is going to a manager for Living Scriptures and sell that this summer. We also get to pick out where we are going to live for the summer. So that will be nice. Hopefully we can find something close to the elementary school I'll be student teaching at. Another piece to our puzzle that we found a place to fit it. I was so over whelmed by all this good news this week:) I just thank Heavenly Father everyday for the many blessing he has given to us. He knew when the best time for us to figure this out. Anyways I promise I'll get those pictures on sooner then later.
