I have been putting this off because I never know what to write. I read everyone else's blog daily and I love it, so here it goes. I have sucessfully turned in my nursing applications and will find out in April if I get in and I am having a little anxiety about it. I am trying not to but I can't help myself. My whole life depends on this stupid decision that in my experience is made by stupid people. On top of that, I have this fear that I forgot to do something or I did something wrong so they will throw my application out. For instance, my fears became a reality in the shower this morning when I realized that I had fogotten to put my internship on my resume. This may or may not be a big deal but I spent so much time messing with the stupid "templete" that I forgot to add it to my resume. Also, we also have a nursing student who was telling me how one of her recommendations was filled out wrong so she had to wait a year and reapply(because of someone else's mistake). Its these little things that are killing me. I have a fear of the unknown. I don't like leaving my life changing decisions to other people, is that so wrong? I didn't have this anxiety last year when I applied but I also secretly didn't want to get in(I needed a break). I am ready now so please, someone let me into nursing school(preferably the U, I REALLY REALLY don't want to drive to Ogden everyday). Thank you. Oh and if you tell me not to worry I am a shoe in, I know that already I just can't help myself. That is the end of my shpeil(sp?) thank you for reading.

On the first day of christmas

Here is my REAL Christmas tree. I had never had a real Christmas tree till I married Andrew and he was absolutely appalled that I had never had a real tree. He is from Oregon and has never had anything but a real Christmas tree. So we went to the christmas tree lot and picked one out. This one called out to me. We tied it onto the top of our car(luckily we have a rack) and brought it home. I love it, it smells great, and misses me when I go to work. Not only that, it has 1000 lights on it. Yes, thats right 1000. I know, you are all jealous. I love Christmas.

UTES!

As most of you know I am a die hard Ute football fan. Since I graduated I have not been able to get football tickets. However, the BYU-Utah game was a different story. We camped out and waited in line all night to get standing room only tickets at the top of the stadium. I then had to sneak in the stadium, pretending I was a student. It makes the noses bleed section look like prime real estate. It was sooo worth it though. I would like to throw out a thanks to Max Hall(BYU quarterback) for helping us win the game with all the interceptions he threw. I would also like to nominate him for MVP of the game for the 5 interceptions he threw. It was a lot of fun and I am glad that I forced andrew to give me his student ticket. : ) Thanks to April who camped out while I was working till 3am.

No one even waited till the end of the game to rush the field. Ya. It was that good. 48-24

Andrew and I have moved into Nate's basement but before we did we had to do some much needed painting. The whole living room/kitchen was in this awesome wood paneling....as much as I love wood paneling, it had to go. This was my first experience painting and I have to say that it kinda sucks. Its not just like you can just paint a wall. No, you have to first paint primer a couple of times and then the actual paint a couple of times. So you end up painting the same thing like 5 times. However once it was done it looks really good. I am so excited for nate and di to come see it and tell me how awesome I am. Anywho, check out the pics.


Before we painted....
After we painted....it looks so much better
added some lights and decorated!

Happy Halloween

No comment necessary.


Gauze anyone?(Its an ER...we have a plethora)


My killer costume...I know you're jealous of my silver pants.


So I have been getting crap from Cassi for not updating my blogg but I had a serious Iphone malfunction and all my pictures are on it. The top half of my screen stopped working. The things at the top of my screen are such things as my calender, text, and photos. This may be all and well besides the fact that my phone is hacked so I can't just take it into the apple store to get it fixed(they look down on the hackers) I have to unhack it and play dumb then rehack the new phone. So needless to say...it's a process. So I am sorry for my "lameness" and will try to be better.

The "dudes"

After LOTOJA we went and stayed with our friend Jane in Star Valley. She has horses and was nice enough to take us out and let us ride them. They are so fun and we had a blast. Andrews horse kept trying to eat along the way and Andrew couldn't stop him. Jane called us dudes but I still had fun. Thanks Jane! Jane's mom cooked for us a delightful meal with the most amazing potatoes that I have ever had. I snuck some out of the fridge later that day and they were awesome. mmmm potatoes.

LOTOJA

Here is Andrew's race pictures. I know a little late... Anywho he did amazing! 208 miles of pure fun...just ask him. I am so proud of him because I could never do that and I think he is crazy but he did and he is awesome! So go ANDREW!
