Torrie :)

So proud of my Torrie! She is starting a new job tomorrow as a dental assistant for an Oral Surgeon in St George. Becuase I know she doesnt read my blog Ill share the story :) She finished up her Dental Assistant school back around the Holidays and has been looking for a job while working at a Girls home for troubled youth, A friend from the program called and told her that the dentist she worked for was hiring so Torrie went in with her resume. The dentist liked her enough to ask if she would stay and shadow for a while so she did, he was preforming a tooth extraction on a patient and Torrie watched as the room started to spin and she became warm the next thing she new was she was waking up after being catched by the dentist. She had FAINTED! After she had collected herself and they made sure she was ok, she went into his office to wrap up the interview fully expecting him to say something like " I am sorry , this probably isnt for you" instead he just kept saying how much he liked her and how he never hires on the same day most of the time they do working interviews for weeks at a time BUT "I just really like you and want to hire you"! Torrie said " Um after I just fainted?" He wasnt worried about that and she got the job! She assured us it wasnt the blood that caused her to faint, she was so nervous and had not eaten all day. This is an amazing first time job and opportunity for her.

Where did the year go!?

I have been seduced by facebook, pinterest,and now twitter! They are just easy fast and instantly gratifying when you want to socialize. But I have always had my blog in the back of my head, sad that I have abandoned the updates, so I will do my token yearly entry this time making no promises to when ill be back. Life is SO busy that I often find myself hoping it will slow down a bit, then instantly regretting that feeling knowing that all to soon the girls will be gone and we will be looking for things to keep us busy (well probably not, ill update on our new adventures soon.)
