Tiny Little Pieces: Hello and welcome to Frontier Airlines...

Firstly let me just say, I never actually thought I would get to be a flight attendant. I mean, I have always dreamed of it, and even applied to a few airlines, but NEVER did I think I would get it. It all started when my good friend Machaeha told me about an open interview in Denver. I told her I would go just to be moral support for her. If you have ever seen her, she just screams FLIGHT ATTENDANT! So I knew she would get it, and I probably wouldn't but that was okay. I mean ultimately I want to do ministry so this wouldn't be a big deal if I didnt get it. Anyway, we get there and there are at least 100 people all interviewing for the same job. Its a fligh attendant job for Lynx Aviation, which is like the express company for Frontier. Kind of like Ted for United...Anyway, the group got split in half and Machaeha and I got in the same group (of about 40 people). Here we each had to introduce ourselves, answer why do we want to be a flight attendant, why do we want to work for this company, and what is something special about us/or makes us dazzle..., then we had read an mock announcement. After we all did this they made the first cut. Machaeha and I both got into the second round of interviews! We couldn't believe it. Everyone who made the first cut went back into the interview room and were asked three questions. My questions were: if you could be anyone famous dead or alive or fictious who would you be, what does saftey on the airplane mean and look like to you, and is there anything else you want us to know about you? After that we got to go home and they said that they would let us know within the week. I was a nervous wreck. It was weird how going into this I didn't really want it that bad, but by the time the interview was up I wanted this job more than anything. After two days of hearing nothing, I was driving Erik crazy! I kept going over my answers and analyzing them. Finally I got the phone call! They said I was hired!!! However they have two training classes this summer and they still haven't decided which class I will be in. Either June or August..She said I would know in a week. I'm praying for June. I want to start right away. I can't believe how much my life is about to change. Finally Erik and I can do all the traveling we've been wanting to do. Finally we're going to have money! I just can't stop smiling. God has totally blessed us in yet again, and unexpected way. We are sooo thankful! We get all kinds of benifits. We'll have health insurance (which we already have through Erik's job, but we hate it), we'll get to fly free with Frontier, and we get a 90% discount on tickets with any other airline! I am getting paid way more money alone than Erik and I have ever made combine! We just cannot believe this...

I also haven't gotten write about my parents. As you know my parents came to visit 2 weeks ago. My mom had a layover for a day in Denver and brought my dad along with her. However they also surprised me and brought my sister Shele with them! I was super surprised. As soon as they got here we got them all Big City Burrito for lunch. I knew they would love it! Then we all went up to Estes Park. My parents were in awe of the beauty of the Rockies. We walked around and shopped a little. Then we went to a Japanese steakhouse. It was really fun. My parents were tired and went back to their hotel, while my sister stayed with us in our apartment. Shele, Erik, and I went to see the Wolverine movie. It was so nice because that's exactly what we would've done if I was living in Chicago. Shele was my movie buddy, and usually we could drag Erik along with us. It was awesome to be with my family. It was so nice to show them where I have been making my home, and to show them that I'm growing up...and most importantly that I am happy where I am. My mom is hopefully coming back next month to stay longer than a day. Then my Aunt Monica is coming to stay with us for a weekend in June. I am adding some pics of when my parents were here. Also Im adding a picture of our finished living room, and "after picture" if you will.

God is sooo good, its so great to know He is watching over me!
