Happy Birthday

Yay, I'm 23, what is so exciting about turning 23? It's kind of a boring age...I mean it's not 16 when you can finally drive, it's not 20 when you don't have to be a teenager anymore...can anyone tell me what's good about it? It was a good birthday though... I mean what can be better than having a soccer game on your birthday? I've had one every birthday for as long as I can remember...except for the birthdays that landed on Sundays. After our game I got half our team to come eat at Red Robin to celebrate. Look at the fabulous dessert they gave me for free! For my birthday I also went on a shopping spree and loaded my closet with new clothes, what girl doesn't want that? I also got surprised with beautiful flowers from my hubby who is so thoughtful, considering his allergies really get bad with pollen...he knew I'd love them though...how sweet!

Family Pictures

We did some more family pictures this weekend! Brandon was so thrilled! What's with men and taking pictures anyway? It's like it's a chore! I am happy with the way they turned out. My mom took them and she does pretty good for having no photography experience. Thanks mom.

Anniversary Weekend

Our Anniversary was great! We spent the day at Thanksgiving Point,
taking plenty of pictures and just enjoying the beautiful flowers and the
hot weather. We ate dinner at Rodizio Grill. The most weird thing they
had that night was chicken heart, which Brandon tried. We spent the
night at Anniversary Inn in Salt Lake. We stayed in the room themed
'Lake Powell'. It was kind of neat, but overall we were kind of disappointed.
For one thing, there was a dead fish in the aquarium that was in our room, which the other fish fed on the whole night. It was pretty disgusting. We
had fun anyway, and it was really nice to get away. It was hard leaving Kayli
though. I cried when we were dropping her off at the in-laws. I wasn't worried or anything, it was just hard since I've never been away from my
baby girl for more than 5 hours or so. Anyway, that's our weekend. Thanks to the Sturdevants for watching our baby and taking such good care of her!

Anniversary

Engagement
Honeymoon to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico
Honeymoon
What a special day
Married in the Bountiful Temple

Our 2nd year anniversary is this Sunday, May 18th so I just wanted to post some pictures from that special time. Our wedding day was so perfect and nothing went wrong. Inside the temple was amazing and I'll never forget the feeling there. We had so many family and friends that supported us and showed they cared. I love Brandon so much and I hope that we can continue a life full of happiness, compassion, and trust. I couldn't have made a better choice on the man I married. I love you Brandon!

Graduates

Shandee and Will have graduated from Weber State University! Shandee graduated with a Bachelor of Science with Dental Hygiene with a Minor in Health Promotion and William graduated with a Bachelor of Microbiology with a Minor in Chemistry. A couple of smarty pants! :D Congrats to you 2!

Nursing School

Alright, I wasn't going to do this...but Brandon said, "Why don't you tell anyone your news, I would be calling everyone". I'm very excited to say that I got accepted into the LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse) Program at the OWATC. I'll be starting around the end of August and 8 months later I'll be an LPN! I know people usually say that LPN stands for Low Pay Nurse, but hey, it's better than what a CNA gets paid! I've been a CNA for 2 years now. It's been great and all taking care of the elderly, but I really want to take care of children instead. Giving the shots to little ones doesn't exactly thrill me, but everything else sounds good. Hopefully after I get that license I will be able to get my RN soon after (since that means Rich Nurse). Well, that's my news for the week. I'm excited.

Date with the Babies

On Friday night Joslyn, Adam, and their baby boy, Isaac came with us to Maddox and over to our house to play games. The babies are only 2 months apart, but it's amazing how different they are. It's always fun to compare babies!
