The end is near..

- I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel.. well for this semester at least. This has definitely been a challenging 5 months, I have one week left of finals for this semester and then I start right back up the following Monday for summer semester.. crappy I know. On a positive note, at least I start new classes.

- Seth graduates a WEEK from today! I am so excited and happy for him, he has worked so hard the last two years and is very ready to start working as an RN.

- I can't believe we have been down in St. George for 3 years! Time goes by way too quickly

- We had a great Easter weekend - pictures to come!

- We spent a few days last month in California with my family. It was such a nice getaway and I loved seeing the nieces and nephews in awe at Disneyland.

- The Dental Hygiene program participated in a school event called "The Great Race" we each had different relay parts to participate in like a mud pit, slip-n-slide, running around the track, etc. I did the last lap around the track (if you were wondering, I am a super fast/great runner! haha) It turned out to be pretty fun, and we actually placed decent considering the year before they took second to last.

- I need to come up with some hobbies, not that I have that much free time, but I must have enough since I seem to get bored when Seth works

- Wish my life was more interesting right now, but its not.. so until next time

Happy Birthday..

My sisters birthday is in two days, so yes I am a little early on the post, but I couldn't wait any longer to share what I made her.

It is a heat proof flat iron cover, I love it, and although it isn't perfect and I need more practice making them, I am impressed with how it turned out.

So Happy Birthday Wend! I hope you have the greatest day ever! (in two days of course)

Last day of freedom

Unfortunately my long 3 1/2 week break has come to an end. I start school back up tomorrow, and although the break has been great, lets face it, the longer you are away the harder it is to go back.

We had a great Christmas, filled with family, friends, food, and plenty of games and laughter. What a great break for us to get to spend catching up with everyone. We are so fortunate to have such a wonderful family who are so supportive in everything we do.

We spent New Years in St. George, Seth had work the next day and this year we didn't even make it till midnight to ring in the new year, we both fell asleep on the couch waiting for the count down.. how pathetic!

Lucky for me I got to spend a whole week with nothing to do but sit around. I did however complete one of my sewing projects I have been wanting to do for sometime. Got the idea from a great friend in school, and thought I would give it a try. What do you think?




Maybe I can be crafty after all?

Seth and I have a big semester ahead of us. Seth is finishing his last semester of the nursing program, and waiting to hear back from SUU to start the bachelors program. He has to do 10 free shifts at the hospital this semester on top of his usual school and work schedule. Wonder man? I think so..

I am onto my second semester and have a whole lot of new things coming. Anesthesia to be one of them. Yes, we get to practice giving injections on each other.. fun right? We also start seeing real patients in a few weeks, so if you need to get your teeth cleaned, stop by!

When we get a chance to come up for air, i'll try and make an effort to continue blogging, no promises though, we might be under for a while.

We made it!

- Well I officially made it through my first semester of the Hygiene program. It was long, and hard, but I have made some great friends, and can't believe how much I am learning.

- Seth's last final is today! He is so excited to be done, lucky for him he only has one semester left! I can't believe it.

- I am anxiously waiting to go up North to spend the holidays with friends and family. We have 3 weeks off before school starts back up, and I know it is going to come way to fast.

- I did almost all my Christmas shopping this year online, it was so nice to get it done, but I think i'm going to miss the last minute hunt, the huge crows, the long lines, and the no parking.. NOT!

- We took family pictures during Thanksgiving break, it was freezing but we got some cute ones.

- Miss my family terribly.. can't wait to get up there and see all my cute nieces and nephews, and spend some time with both our families.

came and gone..

- Who would have thought fall break would come and go so fast?? I can't believe it has already been a week. School is flying by, which I am grateful for.

- We spent the break up north with friends and family, we went bowling, saw three movies, and ate lots of good food.

- I still am claiming that I have the cutest nieces and nephews. Where would our entertainment be without them? I have no idea what we all did before they were here, they are getting so big, I wish they would stay little forever.

- We celebrated my dad and brothers birthday on friday. I find it weird that the only two men in our family share the same birthday. No wonder they are so much alike in everything else they do too.

- I was not looking forward to getting back in the swing of things - unfortunately I had no choice, Seth and I both came back home with 3 tests to study for this week, they don't waste anytime do they?

- Halloween is coming up quick, i'm disappointed I wont be up north going trick-or-treating, you can never get to old! (even if it is just to see them in their cute costumes)

- I am ready for the weekend, having a full week after a break is rough.

- You know those Nordstrom earrings down on the previous post? Yes, I bought them. I couldn't wait till christmas. :)

- No surprise, my life right now is full of study, study, study and Seth's is full of study, work, study, work. Somehow we find time for food and sleeping too.
