Back To School

I have now decided that I want to become a Registered Nurse. For those of you who know me, I am sure you are all thinking "She is CRAZY, how the heck is she going to manage that!?" Well believe me, I have already thought the same thing. But after long talks with my Hubby and A LOT of thinking I have finally decided to go back to school.

I officially started my classes this past week. Sometimes I wonder if I am getting in way over my head!! I feel like I'm too old to be a college student again. But if my Mom can do it...I guess I can too! My Mom has recently decided to go back to school and I think that is such a neat thing. She works as a Medical Assistant and she has finally decided to go back to school to get her RN. Not before a lot of persuading of course! I am so proud of her!! She is such a good example for me. We are taking a few classes together and I think it's going to be kind of fun. I probably wont admit that too much, you know me.! Haha. Well everyone wish me luck!

Prize Winner

Okay so, cool story. Brant went out to the horse races this last Saturday, I wasn't able to go because I had to work. He thinks it's pretty fun, I don't understand it personally. I don't know, I guess I just can't really get into the whole thing. Well, they were raffling some stuff off out there and Brant bought a ticket. Long story short....HE WON!! He was so dang excited when he called me at work to tell me! He got the 3rd prize which was originally a $600 COWBOY HAT that he WON after buying a $1.00 raffle ticket!!!! Yeah...That is a SMOKIN' DEAL!!! It's pretty cool for being nearly free.

Two Years Down...

Brant and I just had our two year anniversary this last week! I can't believe how fast time has gone by already. We didn't get to do anything too exciting to celebrate but we had a fun day together. We just relaxed and enjoyed the day. Brant surprised me a little bit. We came back to our house that evening and Brant had set up our dinner on a blanket in the living room with candles all around and he gave me some very pretty flowers. It was so sweet! I loved it!! :) It was very simple but very thoughtful. He is such a good husband and I feel blessed every day to have him in my life. I could have never asked for a better husband. I'm just glad he found me!! Two years down and hopefully many more to come....

Easter Weekend

Saturday morning we all got strapped in the car cheek to cheek and drove up to mesa for the weekend. It was Billy, Janeen, Brant, Ariel, Amber, and me! We met up with Brant's brother Brady and his wife Mandi at the mall and did some shopping. We went to the Easter pageant that night. It was so cold but I was glad that it had stopped raining by the time it started. It was really neat, I haven't seen it in years. We stayed at Brady and Mandi's place and went to church with them the next morning. We went back to their house and ate dinner and hung out some more. I was surprised to see that the Easter bunny had found me! It was a lot of fun being able to have everyone together! I wish I was a lot better at taking pictures. I remembered to bring my camera but I never thought to actually use it! I'll have to work on that....

Just a Workin' Girl

So recently I have gone back to work. I am now working at French Cut again just a few days a week. I took some time off for a little while and now I have decided that I am ready to get back into it. It has been a lot of fun working again! I am happy to be back. So if anyone is needing their hair cut....then just give me a call!

Snow Day

The wind was blowing so hard outside early yesterday morning that it woke me up in the night. I looked out the window and I couldn't believe my eyes. It was SNOWING!! There were people already out on the street playing in it at 2:30 that morning! I was about to run back in my room to grab my coat and join them, but Brant told me to just sleep a little longer and we would play in it all day tomorrow. I restlessly agreed and went back to bed. I have been wanting to play in the snow all winter long. I told Brant that I was destined to play in the snow and since he hadn't taken me to play in the snow yet, the snow had come to me! Yeah, he made sure to tell me how big of a dork I am...no shock there! I woke up that morning a little later than I had hoped and the snow was already melting. I made sure that Brant kept his promise and we headed up the mountain to find more snow. We tried to make a make-shift sled, but that didn't turn out very well. It did make for some good laughs though! I made a pretty darn good snow angel if I do say so myslef. We played for a few hours and then it just got way too cold and windy so we decided to just head on home. It was a fun day, I was sad to leave. Snow in Arizona sure doesn't come often enough.
