Finally catching up!!

Only nine more days to go and I've got almost everything all taken care of. We got the tuxes for Kenny and Bobby, Dougie is getting his tux today. We got Bobby a tux with tails and a bow tie!! I've got the flowers and the cake, most of the decorations and Dougie is making a back drop for the pictures. I am so excited to see how it all turns out. Dan is going to bring his video camera, so who ever wants a video let me know and I'll see if I can get you one, besides you Jade I know you want one. I still can't believe BOTH my YOUNGER sisters got married before I did!! LOL. I am soo proud of you two though.
Well Kenny and I have been going to church lately, I love the ward, everyone is soo nice and wants to help. The relieve society president is soo nice. Kenny likes his teachers as well. I am soo glad we have the same goals and believes. We read the scriptures at night and say our prayers together, it is so comforting. I can't wait till we're on our own and get in the groove of life together, and to be an official family!!
I have been at Helen's (Kenny's grandmother) house for the last couple days (and will be through the week) watching over her because 3 days ago she fell 2 days in a row!! The first time she fell it was pretty bad, she hit her face on the dresser and then fell on the dog!! If the dog wasn't there she could have broke her hip!!! Her left arm got bruised up but the left side of her face got the worst of it!! The next day she fell while trying to lay the blanket down for the dogs. She said she wasn't dizzy or faint or anything so we have no idea why she fell.? So we thought it would be a good idea for me to stay here with her during the day until she gets moved in with her son, next week. I have access to a computer though, witch is why I am updating. Once we get moved in I'll set up my computer and will be able to update more often.
Yesterday I called my school to see if they could help me get a job and to see if there was any type of refresher course I could take so I can pass that stupid test!! They told me to come down and update my resume so they could send it out, and she'd check to see if I could come back to school but not for credits. Well then today I get a call, at Helen's house, from a lady at a Dr. office asking me if I want to set up an interview!! She said she called the school to get someone from the A list and they gave her my name!!!!!!!!!!! I haven't even gone up there to update my resume yet!! The lady from my school was supposed to e-mail me so I could e-mail her the info from ADP and Kenny's new cell number. When I checked my e-mail there was none from her but like 14 from you all!!! But they still recommended me!!! I am so happy!! It didn't even take near as long as I though t it would!! This is definitely an answered prayer!! I am very grateful.
I will let you all know how the interview goes. I have to do my work out now. I will most likey blog tomorrow too, if anything happens. TTYL. LOVE YA'LL.!!

Hi Amber!
Hey, that's wonderful that you were referred so fast. Good luck with you interview! I know how it is, looking for a job and having no idea whee to look or how to get leads! That does sound like an answered prayer Een if it doesn't work out, the fact that they'll let you sit in on some classes for a refresher is a step in the right direction! Good luck! Also, I am sooo excited for you to get married! You sound so ready for it the way you've been talking about you scripture study and prayer with Kenny! That is something you must keep up when you're married. David and I sometimes get out of the hbbit and that's when things seem to go downhill.
Oh!Did you ever get an invite to view my blog? If not, just go to Windows Live Spaces and set up a profile of yourself(you can use your exsisting email addy) and then go to http://emiflute.spaces.live.com and request to see it. I will then send you permission. Okay, hang in there! Love, Emily

Yay! That is so great! Sorry I haven't posted a reply yet, I had a busy weekend. It is great that you are able to post again; even temporarily!

I'm sorry about Kenny's grandma. It is always bad when people hit their faces! It always makes me cringe, it's like "anything but the face!" You know what I mean?

I am glad to hear that all the plans for the wedding are falling in place nicely. I just wanted to let you know that I will definately be there this weekend! Yay, I am riding down with dad. (look for pics of how you want your hair..)

I am thrilled about the job opportunity for you as well! I was wondering what was going on with that..

I agree with Emily, definately try to keep reading the scriptures and family prayer a constant. Things start turning for the worse when you get out of habbit!

Love you,
see you soon!

Hey Ber!
I CAN'T believe you are getting MARRIED tomorrow!!!!! Woohoo!!! I am way excited to be able to come. Mike and I are going to rent a car and leave like at 6 in the morning and so I will be there tomorrow night to help with anything that you might need last minute things done on.
Things sound like they are going so well for you. I can't wait to hear about the job interview.
It is so good to hear that you and Kenny are going to church and praying. It is so amazing the power of prayer!
I am really looking forward to seeing you tomorrow!
Love YA
Kathy

I feel bad I haven't seen your blog until tonight, but I am so happy for you! It seems like everything is going great for you! I really want to congratulate you on your marriage. That is awesome about the interview! How did it go? Keep up the good work! I want to see wedding pictures too! Stay close to each other. I've found the best bonding glues are scripture study, prayer and honesty in every aspect. I wish you all the best wishes in the world. I'll keep thinking and praying for you!
