I don’t think it’s possible to express in words how excited I am right now!!!!
Travis called Doug at the PIF this morning, and they are in the process of getting the paperwork together to make him a job offer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We are so thrilled and relieved. I can’t say I was too worried when we hadn’t heard by the end of March (like we were supposed to), but it’s great to get some official confirmation that he’s going to have a job after graduation. YAY!!!!!!
Doug also said that Travis can wait to start until after the beach trip with my family (May 29th – June 5th), so he gets to go to Fripp too! I think he’s wanting to start right after that though, like the Monday after we get back. I’m glad that he’ll get about a month off before starting work. After all, he gets to work for the rest of his life, so why not enjoy some time off for a month or so? Plus, we’re going to be super busy during May with graduation stuff, moving, and getting everything set up here at Baugay’s. We’re finally going to have all our stuff in one place after 2 1/2 years of being married!!!
Travis also called the GI doctor’s office today and got the results of the bloodwork he had done at the ER a couple of weeks ago. They told him that his IgG antibodies were positive, but his IgM antibodies were negative, which means that at some point in the past he had hepatitis A, but he doesn’t have a current infection with it. YAY!!!! The doctor still wants to see him back in 2 weeks just to follow up, so we’ll see what he says then I guess. Travis forgot to ask when he called whether or not the lab work checked his liver enzymes to see if they were still elevated or not, so he’s going to ask about that at his next appointment.
The bottom line is that we are REALLY blessed. God has really taken care of us since we got married, and we are so thankful for that. Even though I know we’ll go through some rough times too, God will be right there watching over us the whole time just like always!
This past weekend, we met halfway in Trussville at my parents’ house and spent the weekend with them and Jenn. It was great to hang out and eat some of Mom’s home cooking again :) We also went to see Gran, Dadaw, and Granny on Saturday afternoon, which was awesome because we hadn’t seen them since Christmas! Saturday night, we went to a baby shower/cookout for Elijah and Leisha in Birmingham. It was a lot of fun, and they got so many cute things for McKenna! They are going to be such great parents, I’m sure!!
This week Travis will be coming up here Thursday sometime because classes are cancelled on Friday for Honors Day. I still have to work Friday, but at least we get a little extra time together! Saturday, we are going paintballing for Emily’s 17th birthday. I’m excited! I’ve never been before, so we’ll see how I do. Hopefully I won’t end up with too many bruises :)
The weather has been great lately…just another reason to be in a wonderful mood!
