Eventful week...

The week started off with our dog having diarrhea for 2 1/2 days. NOT FUN!!! Poor baby though, we took him to the vet and he seems to be all better now, he must feel special he gets cheese twice a day for 10 days. :)

I got my hair cut, again....I will post pictures soon.

I am getting my hair colored today...YEAH!!! Mandy your the BEST!!!

For the first time in my life I have a whole comforter set that matches!!! I am so excited, I know it's silly. I will post pictures of it soon.

2 of our dear friends are moving on Saturday and they are having a going away dinner tonight. :(

I only have 7 more days of work left!!! YEAH!!! I love my job but I am ready for a break before school starts. We are going to go home and visit for about 5 days in a few weeks. I am so excited to get to see my niece again. She is 4 months old and I have only seen her twice. The pictures of her are so cute and she is getting so big. I will definitly have pics when I come back home.

Suzy Homemaker...

I decided that I wanted new cutains while I still had time to think about it and do it. So I bought a panel and split it down the middle to cover the living room window and then I bought 2 yards of fabric to make my own curtains for the kitchen. Pictures are below.

CPR

I am now CPR certified. I was so scared about taking this class because I knew nothing about it, but it was super easy.

Now just have to wait for Orientation in less than a month. FUN FUN!

Happy 23rd...

Another year is gone.....WOW! It seems like just yesterday that I turned 22! I don't feel old yet, but my youth seems to be fading:) The past year has been very eventful to say the least:

2 of my very best friends moved away, we found out that we were going to be an aunt and uncle, I finally quit my paper route and got a daytime job, we had our 3 year Wedding Anniversary, we went to Hot Springs, AR for the first time ever, my baby brother turned 16, I got to go through my very first Corn Maze, we had our first Thanksgiving and Christmas in our own house, My cat, Rylee, and dog, Jack, both turned 1, I got stuck on the roof of our house trying to put up Christmas lights, I made a A in my A&PII class, thanks so Dawn's help, William began J-Men, that would soon come to change my life forever as I got saved and baptized in the Baptist Church, I won my very first Fantasy Football League, William turned 27, we began Financial Peace University, that would change our lives forever, our niece was born, We paid off our first purchase that we made together, our car, I passed Microbiology with a B, by the grace of God, my middle brother turned 18, graduated from high school and left for Marine Boot Camp and then I got accepted into Nursing School.

In the whole Journey of the past year I have changed alot, I came to know God in a different way than I had ever before, I got to meet lots of Christian couples/parents at our church, I have made lots of lifetime Friendships! I have definitly been blessed! God is good, and he does amazing things. Baby Blake was born and is healthy, Baby Isaiah just arrived last month and is healthy, and all the other 7 or 8 babies that have been born. The year seemed to start off on a down side with my closests friends moving away but apparently that was God opening another door to meet more Christian people!

Happy 23rd to me!

I will update again soon, I have my CPR class tomorrow, and my Nursing School Orientation and our 4 year Anniversary are in less than a month!

New Haircut

I went and got my haircut today. It's short for me. I got it cut because I got the handbook for Nursing school and it said if your hair was shoulder length or longer you have to wear it up everyday. I am not going for that I didn't have my hair long to wear it up everday. So I decided to get it cut off. I went in to get a A-line haircut like Victoria Beckham but not quiet as short. The picture I wanted it to look like is in the middle of the before and after pictures. I think I am starting to like it more as I look at it. I just hope I like it more tomorrow when I have to style it myself. I just hope I don't start bawling when I go to wash it in the morning and there is no hair left!
