Kind of funny

I kind of think its funny how we are always wanting the next "thing" to happen. Well... maybe this doesn't happen to you, but it totally does to me.

Exhibit A:

I got a job about 1 1/2 years ago. I was beyond excited. It is my first nursing job, and it's a great resume builder. Well... a year and a half later, I am longing for a different job. Although I will still admit that this one is pretty ideal, especially with having to go to school. Which bring me to...

Exhibit B:

A year ago right now I would have given ANYTHING to get into nursing school and finish. At this point in time, I would give ANYTHING to be out of nursing school.

It might be because I know some exiting things are ahead? Possibly. Because every time I go to get excited about these upcoming things, I remind myself that I have an ENTIRE semester of school standing in my way.

Life is all about the next best thing. I need to teach myself to enjoy the moment I am in right now and not keep wishing I could be living in the next best "thing". Does anyone else feel this way, or am I standing alone?

Time just keeps on ticking by...

Happy New Year! This past year flew by. I can't believe Christmas is already over, and a new semester is about to start. I successfully made it through my first semester (well, technically its my third) of nursing school. One more to go until I am finished with my RN! I really hope the next 4 months go by quickly. Jamie and I have just been as busy as ever. Jamie is working his tail off and being a great husband, and between work and school and being a wifey I keep myself busy. We went to Disneyland with Jamie's work the first part of December. This has become quite the fun tradition, I hope it keeps going for awhile. Our last few months have been filled with family gatherings, moments of sickness, nervous breakdowns, laughing until your stomach hurts, and loving each other throughout it all. We have some pretty exciting things coming up in 2012, and I can't wait for them! (No baby involved...as far as I know anyways) We hope everyone's year was as enjoyable as ours, and we hope this next year is better than the last!

Which Type of Celebrity

Would You Rather....

Be a famous athlete

Famous Singer

Famous Actress/Actor


Hmmm... thats hard. I think I would want to be a famous singer! BUT- being a famous athlete would be pretty sweet. And I would have a killer body.

Dirty, Very Dirty

This past weekend my mom and sisters and I ran in the Dirty Dash 5K. SO MUCH FUN. We laughed our heads off. We wore pig noses the entire race. These pictures are backwards. Sorry.

Finally to the end!

Freezing cold mud pit

Family Love

This is the biggest Slip and Slide I have ever been on!

CHAOS! This is the beginning of the race

My mom, Sister, me, Sister-In-Law

This was so fun to do with my mom and sisters. I highly suggest doing it! Be sure to wear things that you wont mind being ruined. You seriously get so dirty. I had dirt in my ears for days! So worth it though!

LOUIE...

got a hair cut! And it is adorable on him!

BEFORE!

AFTER!

We still adore him if you were wondering. He might be the most spoiled dog child out there.

I Love It.

Can I just say this is perfect? Me and my volumptuous butt love this ad. I have no idea where my type of build came from... I am guessing the Tuerpe' side, because it's definitely not the skinny, beanpole Butterfield side. Nonetheless- I will take it.

P.S.- Sorry the words are a bit hard to read. Click on the image and its alot easier to read
