Straight A's... Who needs em?

So I am officially 25% of a nurse! I did pretty well on my finals and managed to get B's in both of my classes, but I am not complaining, cause if that magic number says I passed I'll take it! We don't have to go back til like the fourteenth of January so I get to party for awhile before its time to take life seriously again!
In boy news, yes boy news, this girl I know also knows this boy that lives in Utah and we have been talking and texting for I think over a month now and I am going up on the 29th to meet him! I am so nervous but really excited! He is 22, 6'3, and really awesome! So I guess we will see what happens!
I am so excited for Christmas, I hope I get to see all of you while we are all in St. Johns...Merry Christmas!

Busy, Busy, Busy...

So the last couple of weeks have been pretty hectic! I had those two tests right after Thanksgiving break (which I did really well on, kinda surprising!) and then I think cause its the end of the semester, it just feels like I have a ton to do to get everything wrapped up! Speaking of being wrapped up, I am SO excited for Christmas! It so much fun to shop for everyone, my favorite part of Christmas is seeing everyone's reactions to their presents... I have a hard time keeping everything a secret, and I usually end up giving at least one present early. My mom always tells me when I have kids, I'm gonna have to go shopping on Christmas Eve so I won't blow it! Other than that I think my life is kinda boring, I wish there was more to report on! I hope everyone is doing well. Happy Holidays!

So I took this picture on my phone, that's why its kinda crappy, but Makyndie just all of the sudden made this face and the harder we laughed, the more she did it! Soooo Cute!

Three More Weeks!

Yep, only three weeks left of my first semester in nursing school! I don't think I could be more excited... I nice long one month break should be just the thing I need! Plus, I am so excited for next semester because its our Pediatric/ OB rotations and I want to go into labor and delivery when I get done so its gonna be a blast! (and a nice change from working at the nursing home, you can only change so many of those diapers before you really want to die... or gag.)

This last weekend Charlie came down and stayed with me so we could go to Aubrie's last game and for her baby shower. We had so much fun catchin up with the girls! (Thanks Bailey for driving, did you ever go get a refund from Jack-In-The-Box... the big jerks didn't give us our food!) Charlie got a lot of cute stuff and we all had a good time.

I wish there was more to tell, but that's pretty much my life... I'm looking forward to the holidays and getting to see my nieces and nephews, they are TOO FAR AWAY!

Way to go Aubrie!

"Brick Wall Shar"

So this weekend I had all intentions of getting so much studying done for the two tests I have coming up this next week but of course a lot of fun things come up and the good student that I am thinks, "hmm, I'll just do it later!" Well, that's what I did! Taytum called me Saturday and said the volleyball team was playing for the state championship and so we ate and then headed out to Peoria for the game... The girls played so hard but lost (of course to one of those dumb private Christian schools that get to recruit, don't get me started!) and I relived every anxiety and pressure I had ever felt playing volleyball in high school. I miss it so much! As we were driving back to Mesa, I remembered this one really intense game we played against Mogollon. Our team was playing really well and I had stuffed a few volleyballs in a few girls faces, and the crowd was amazing, which of course helped our team play even better... so I had just blocked a ball and the crowd had cheered and kinda died down and just as it got kinda quiet, Blake Gray stood up and shouted at the top of his lungs "Brick Wall Shar!" Ok, so of course I turned bright red and everyone looks at him and then looks at me... um embarrassing, but so funny! We won that game and it was probably one of the best games we ever played! Congratulations to the St. Johns High Volleyball team for being the State runner-ups! ( It has been quite a few years since that has been done!)

State Fair

This weekend was pretty fun, I got set up on a blind date to go to the state fair, I don't think there were any sparks flying but we had fun! My friend Mindy that goes to school with me, her brother-in-law is the one I went with, he just got off a mission about a month ago, he is one skinny boy! Well, other than that not too much is going on, time is flying and we only have six weeks left of our first semester of nursing school! I have two tests the week after next so hopefully that will turn out ok! I hope everyone is doing well, its gettin colder and colder down here! I think Christmas will be here before we know it...

I was born in a small town...

I got to spend the weekend in St. Johns and it was good to be home, I haven't been there in awhile! It was weird because my parents are the only ones home now since Kelsey decided to fly the coop(how do you spell that?!) early... She is in Escalante living with my grandparents for her Senior year, i thought she was crazy but she loves it there. I got "Taytum Time" while I was there, I always love going to get pepsi's at the station and catchin up on all the gossip with her! Thanks Taytum (and Trevor for letting me steal her!) We watched the homecoming football game and St. Johns KILLED Pinon... surprise, surprise! They scored a touchdown in like the first five seconds so we pretty much knew the outcome by then... Then Saturday I just sat around and watched movies with my mom, how cute! It was nice to relax knowing I didn't have a test to study for. P.S. I got to wear a sweater and I was excited!

Kam, I just read your blog about your one year anniversary and found this picture! Congrats on a year!

~Yay for Fall!~

Hmm... I love fall in Mesa! Even though I think it still in the 90's outside, I swear my body knows its fall cause this time of year just feels dofferent! I love when it starts to get cold outside and you freeze your buns off at a SJ football game, and you get to rake all the leaves(palm tree leaves in Mesa), and you get to wear big hoodie sweaters! I don't know about anyone else, but this time of year all I want to do is make yummy treats and do crafts... is that weird? So I wish that there was more to update on but my life is kinda the same o, same o... school and tests and school... I think its more fun to have a post with a picture, so here are a few. (The one with me and Danielle was at the Rascal Flatts concert, umm, amazing!)
