lots and lots

It has been quite a while since I have posted. I have got to get more consistent.
This summer has been so jam packed and I have gotten so much done! I am working 24 hours a week at the hospital and LOVING it! I am learning alot and I'm so glad I chose nursing as my profession. (although I will still love teaching, when I have little ones!)
THis summer I have:
- Turned 22 - on the 4th of June - WOOT! I got a silhouette, which is SO awesome - I have been crafting up a storm lately
- cleaned and organized my craft room - I'm talking labeled drawers, paper work filed - EVERYTHING!
- cleaned and organized the laundry room/tool room - same as the craft room! It is ballin'.
- painted the living room ceiling, window seals, door and frame, ceiling fan, and air duct thingies - Looks great, but I made a mess on the floor so I have to fix that some.
- did 350 of my 2000 ATI questions - I need to do more of these
- MY TILE IS BEING INSTALLED!!!!!!!!!!!! - I have nothing to do with this, Yisrael and my FIL, Randy, are rocking this!
- and Mal and I have planned, crafted, and successfully held my niece, Lilly's, first birthday party. It was wonderful and she is precious! It was a watermelon/picnic theme with ants and checkered cloths and tons of watermelon.  I made the cake.
Fruit bowl Mallory made

Not my favorite cake I have ever done, but everyone else seems to like it.





My favorite!

Cute little family!

Aunt Betnuh might have helped with the icing! haha

Ya'll she is a DIVA, for real!

he loved playing in the dirt, he's pretty cute! 

Cutest dress ever! Her Granny Martin made it for her!
I love these children! They light up my life! (For some reason I couldn't make the pictures turn the right way, but you can still see the cuteness! :)
I think Lilly had a great day!

So busy summer, and now I am going to start blogging more.  I am working a 12 tomorrow night, so unless someone is having a baby I might get to blog some.
Until then, Admire the cuteness that is my niece and nephew!

work, cleaning, cooking, and husbands

Wow! I have not posted in over a week! Today is the first of June and I must say I have a pretty good summer so far! This week I had the first two real days of my job.  I can't give much information because I'm a nursing student and I'm not supposed to tell where I work and of course nothing about my patients.  But I worked 12 hours and my legs were soo tired after!! I loved my nurse though and she taught me so much! I really enjoyed actually being on the floor and taking care of patients! It makes me even more excited to graduate in December and get started on my nursing career!
This week I cleaned out my spare room that I posted earlier! It looks awesome.  There are still a few boxes, but those are things that are waiting on the rest of the house to be finished.  I have a craft section with organized and labeled drawers and boxes.  I also set up the cot, like a bed, for our guests! I LOVE it! I also baked bread which turned out so great! I don't have the recipe with me, but I will post it on Monday probably.

Right now, we are at Randy and Yogi's.  Tomorrow we are heading to Destin to shoot a wedding! We are staying the night for a mini vaca.  Whitlee is going with us.
Monday is my BIRTHDAY!! I love my birthday. It is my second favorite birthday (After St. Patrick's Day) :) haha
Also this week, I got two flat tires! So Yisrael decided to replace all my low profile tires and rims with regular tires and rims for a Honda.  IT RIDES SO MUCH SMOOTHER!!! It's like a brand new car almost! No road noise.  I have a great husband! Speaking of that, he has discovered his love for fine grilling! He has made lemon fish, portabello burgers, grilled asparagus, grilled tomatoes, jalopeno cheese chicken, and more! SO YUMMY! He cooked for me the night I had to work.  What a amazing man! He treats me like a princess!

Well it is bedtime for me, busy day tomorrow!
Until then, stay busy
