The life of graduates

Scott flew to Winston-Salem, North Carolina this last Wednesday. He got a call the morning before seeing if he was available to leave the next day. He interviewed with B/E Aerospace there. It is the same company that he was an intern for in Marysville, Washington where we met. It's a testing facility and quite different from the one in Marysville.
Scott interviewed with 7 different people, one who had a team with them. Overall he felt he did really well in his interviews and both of us would be surprised if he did not get an offer to work there. The original person who called Scott about the position there is a member of the church. Scott interviewed with him- and he's in fact the bishop of his ward (and doing some recruiting...haha).
These photos are from the night he got into North Carolina. He spent probably 10 hours there and the rest of the time traveling. He came back Thursday night- a two day trip on 6 different airplanes just to get out there. Yuck.

The next morning he left for Eastern Washington University for a competition. It didn't go so well for him- maybe because a lack of sleep and time zone changes? He thought he did better than the other presentations- and after hearing about the others, he definitely did. He finally got home Sunday evening.

During this time of him being gone, I spent it on self-diagnosed bed rest.
Yesterday we went to the duck pond to walk around. We fed them stale pretzels and they loved it. It's nice to go right after winter because they still swarm you for food because they haven't been fed for a while.
There were plenty more ducks than just these two. Once the others realized what was going on, we were in high demand from the customers. They came flying to us, "running" to us, swimming to us...all different directions.
Here I am at 39 weeks pregnant. I didn't bother to have the doctor check me this week. But last Monday I was dilated to 2cm and 75% effaced. She is now welcome to come at any time now that Scott his home.
