$0.32 dinner, kitchen aid, & First Day of School!

A few weeks ago Casey & I wanted to go out to eat and he had a gift card to Chili's for $5 and I have one that I thought had $5 on it as well, so we figured Chili's was a good choice... when the waiter brought us our receipt the total was only $0.32! My gift card ended up having $25 on it, so we only had to pay $5 with the tip! My grandma always gives us gift cards for Christmas, and I LOVE them! It's so nice to be able to go to dinner and not have to pay for it! Best idea she has ever come up with :) We got a Kitchen Aid mixer from Grandma Arlene for our wedding and used it for the first time the other day! Oh I love it! I have wanted one for a while and am so happy we have one now! Grandma has had hers for 40 years and it still works like the day she bought it, so I am so glad we have one now too! Today was the first day of school! I still have one more class in like 45 minutes, but I figured I would post about it real quick... I went to orientation for Level 2 this morning and I am so excited to get started! I am so excited that I am in my program now and can start to see the light at the end of the tunnel! Only 3 more semesters including student teaching and I am DONE! It's kinda crazy to say I'm a senior again! I'm the old lady on campus now! Kinda weird!!! Level 2 is going to be great though because I know a lot of girls from previous education classes that I have really loved being in class with, so it is going to be GREAT! The first few weeks I am going to be bored because we don't start observing until September 14th, but once I start observing I will be EXTRA busy! I won't be working for America Reads this year :( since I am so busy with school this year I won't be able to be at my job the necessary hours unfortunately! I am keeping my eye out for another job I can do, but for now Casey is working full time at Qwest which I am so thankful for! He is also doing 2 online classes and a night math class this semester, so he will be busy as well! It's going to be great to have a study buddy though! Casey is also looking into becoming an EMT/Firefighter, so after I get done with school we might be moving down to the Orem area so that he can go to UVU and enroll in their fire academy! That's just some of the exciting stuff happening in our lives right now! :)
