Last week Sandy Elementary was Fox 13's COOL SCHOOL of the week so Big Budah and his camera team came to school Wednesday morning. I had to be on with the student council girls since I'm the advisor and we had to be there by 6 am!! YIKES! So I really didn't look too hot, but oh well, I figured it would be like 5 seconds of us waving or something. When the camera is on, Budah asks me what the girls do and I gave my 10 second "teacher answers" then he asked each girl what they've liked working on this year or something. 2 minutes later we're done, yay, everything went pretty well. So camera off, we start talking to Big Budah and I tell him I met him at American Idol tryouts last year so he asked me how it went. I say, not too great, but glad I did it, etc. etc. So 15 minutes later he's like "Mrs Dixon, stick around, I wanna put you on camera again." I ask what for and he says he's just gonna ask me questions about the school and teaching, easy enough. I can totally handle that.
Little did I know...
Camera rolls and he busts out, "I met Mrs. Dixon at American Idol tryouts and she deserves a second chance to show those judges what they're missing!!" and he hands me the mic. WHAT THE...?!?! I basically freaked out, then sang the first song that popped into my head for like 20 seconds. Yep. I sang a solo on TV for all of Utah to watch. Geezzz!!! Wish he would've given me some warning!!! But it was pretty funny. We watched it when we got home since we'd DVR-ed it, and I wasn't too horrible which was nice.
How many people get to sing on TV during their lifetime?? Scratch that off my list!!

37 days.
37 days. That's how many days of school I have left. I'm gonna make it!! It really is going by pretty fast. I'm so lucky to have Stephani taking care of Topher for me. Her daughter Alayna is almost 2 and totally entertains Topher all day. They are so great to let me come over on my lunch break to see him every day.
We went to Cedar for Easter to chill with my family. Saturday we went to the Sigma Nu Easter Egg Hunt at the park. Topher, Jay, and I got our "family portrait" taken with the Easter Bunny, it's soooo cute!!! I'll post some new pics soon.
I am SOOOOOOO super busy it's nuts!! I hardly ever have time to get on the computer anymore. But just thought I oughta let everybody know that we're doing great!
