What a Weekend

This weekend was a speedy one!
On Wednesday our family had a big decision discussion about what to do with our lives. By family I mean Jon and I with impute from Mama Z and Dad Criman. Well the whole reason we were going to move to Logan was because that was the school I had decided on attending. Well now that I'm pregnant I'll be taking a year off school and Jon will be working on becoming an ESL teacher. Anyway we were looking at out of state tuition of Utah State University and well it wasn't possible to afford going there without any scholarships or grants. We talked and talked about where we were going to live and where Jon was going to go to school. After a night of prayer and sleepless worry we decided that UVU was a possibility and close to affordable. On Thursday we asked my Dad if he could talk to someone about a scholarship. Well as soon as he got my text he got a call from the head of the department from UVU's theatre program. He said he could see Jon on Saturday for a talent scholarship audition. We saw this as an answer to our prayers and rushed to get everything organized to leave for a quick trip to Utah and back.
We left for Utah on Friday after my class got over. We packed up the car with our clothes and the dog. This was going to be interesting, because we just didn't know how Tessa would deal with a six hour long drive. We hit rain and sleet until we got to Rock Springs and then it was clear skies! Tessa enjoyed being with us and running around what ever grass patches we could find at a gas station.
We got to my parents house and introduced Tessa to Target and Sally. We started with Sally and there were only a few snaps. Then came Target. As suspected he was very territorial. He and Tessa had quit a few squabbles, but only when we were out with them. After showing off the baby pictures and watching Sally and Tessa play around in the front room, we set up the blow up mattress and crashed for the night.
Saturday was the big day! We got to the theatre and waited for Jon to audition. We saw many of my old friends from high school, which was fun! Jon went in and sang a song from Little Shop of Horrors. He didn't get called back for the Summer Play, but he will hear soon if he got the scholarship.
Later that day we went shopping with my mom and hung out with the family for a bit. Then we went to meet up with a couple of Jon's old companions and laughed for a couple of hours. Then we had carne asada with the family. Introduced Avatar to my dad and Kyle. I fell asleep so I really don't know what happened.
After church on sunday we made the long drive home to Casper.
