Johs’s White Coat Ceremony

Josh was accepted to the Texas Tech Paul L. Foster School of Medicine this fall. I am so excited to start this chapter in our lives. Part of going to medical school is having a white coat ceremony to mark the student's transition from the study of preclinical to clinical health sciences. Dave and Janet were able to come down for the ceremony. We had a great time celebrating this big milestone!

Brownies!

Last night Josh and I were able to go to a birthday party for our friend Dave. At the party we were supposed to bring a treat to share, so I decided to make brownie balls (for lack of a better name). They were so goooood, and turned out really cute!

The Leak!

This is a really late post, so sorry! About a week ago I was swimming with some friends. During one of our many conversations we were talking about apartments. I told them that I loved our apartment and nothing had ever gone wrong…until I got home. That is right I jinxed myself. When I came home there was a waterfall coming out of the ceiling. It was insane. I called the office staff who quickly came to fix the problem. They were able to fix the leak only after 2-3 gallons of water came streaming out of the ceiling. Thank goodness it was only in the bathroom!

New Niece!

I cant believe it, but I am an aunt again today!! Ceri, my older (Fantastic) sister, just had the cutest little baby girl. I was so happy to see pictures of her and to hear that ceri was ok. I am so happy to have her in my life now. I love her so much and cant wait to meet her!!



She was 7 pounds 3 oz and 19.5 inches.

Happy Birthday Ceri

Today I would like to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the best sister in the world. I am not going to embarrass her by making one of those lists of the 100 reasons why I love her, but I will list a few.

-Ceri you are one amazing sister, wife, and soon to be MOTHER!!
-You always calm me down when I call just a-raging.
-You look out for me.
-When I was a freshman in college I would have been lost if you had not been there!
-You find the best nick-knacks (who knows how to spell that) At all the best stores.
-You can find a grant for anything and everything!
-You make me laugh constantly ☺
-You are organized to a T!
-You have amazing fashion sense.
-You are rational…I am not!
-You are gorgeous!

I look up to you in so many ways! I love you very much and hope you have the best birthday ever.

Sorry for breaking on to your blog to write this…I just had to! ☺

Greetings From the Lone Star State

So sorry about the lack of posts, life has been crazy. Josh and I have recently moved to the Lone Start State… TEXAS! I have never lived outside of UT, so moving here was a huge step. Josh loves medical school. He is excited to learn and eager to get going. I could not do what he does. You are amazing Josh! I could not get a teaching job (The state of Utah could not talk to the state of Texas fast enough). I decided that instead of teaching I would take any other job that was available. That is how I cam across orthodontic assisting. It is a new experience and I love the girls I work with. I am glad I have a job in a time where good jobs are rare. We are happy and love this new chapter in our lives!

UPDATE

We are officially moving to El Paso Texas. Crazy. I cant believe it is actually happening. SO much has happened the last few weeks. Sorry for the brief summaries.
1) I have 4 more days of teaching! I love my students and I will miss them so much. I will miss the people I work with. I love you Michelle, Joan, Natalie, Diana and everyone else at Sage Creek.
2) Skyler won state again!! Way to go little brother! He is amazing that is all there is to say. He is also graduating as valedictorian from Desert Hills High School. The boy is unstoppable. Way to go Sky.
3) Ceri is pregnant. I am so excited to be an aunt again. The two of them are going to have the cutest curly haired, skinny babies. Love you Ceri. You are an amazing sis!
4) We are moving home for 1 month! I am currently packing…blah!
5) Our friends Doug and Bethany moved to Colorado. We miss them so much and cant wait to see them in June!
6) Josh and I graduated from BYU! 4 years of hard work down and 4 more to go!
7) Josh and I celebrated our second anniversary. I am lucky to be married to such a wonderful guy. I can’t believe it has been 2 fantastic years.
