Default Combine day text and date problems

I'm trying to combine them...so it's appear as "10/1/08 Wednesday"

One way:

=TEXT(A2,"m/d/yyyy dddd")

Hi,

I have the day of the week in A1 and the date in A2 and I'm trying to
combine them in A3 so it's appear as "10/1/08 Wednesday" but when I apply
the formula it comes out as (please see below in results). How can I do
it
so it'll come out the way i want?

A1: Wednesday
A2: 10/1/2008

Results: Wednesday 39722
