Goodbye Lindon

Dave and I are officially moved out as of today! A huge thanks to my parents for all of there help. My mom literally helped me box everything up and clean my whole apartment. My dad got a trailer for us to haul everything down to Vegas in, packed everything into the trailer, and also helped clean! What amazing parents!! I am sad to leave our wonderful apartment, it is crazy that we have lived there for 3-1/2 years. I think that Dave and I will always think of that place as our first (even though it wasn't) but I think we blocked the others out and we have been in Lindon so long. I am also excited for our new adventure. We just found out that the business costco in Vegas (one of four costcos in the vegas area) accepted Dave's transfer, so he will start working there in August. The really good thing about this Costco is that he is going to be working evenings after school putting together orders for businesses to pick up the next morning, and get this, they aren't open on the weekends. No more Saturdays or Sundays spent working at Costco, YAY!! I am finalizing things in Nevada to get my Dental Hygiene license so I can start working. I am going to finish all of August in Utah at my job in Heber and then hopefully I will have my Nevada license to find a good job. We found a place to live on our first trip down. It is in Henderson, and it is in a gated community with pools, and workout facilities, so we are really excited about it. Well more to come soon with pictures of our new place, and more of our upcoming events.

BIG NEWS....

We are moving! (I know a lot of you thought I was going to say I am pregnant, but no I am not, sorry) Anyway, Dave got into the MHA (Master's of Health Care Administration) program at UNLV. He begins in about a month, so we are moving really quick. We are really excited, but just trying to get everything in order to move, so we are kind of stressed out right now. Just wanted to give an update of our exciting happenings!

Disneyland 2009

Dave and I went to Disneyland again!! We planned it for my graduation, and this time Dave's parents came with us! We had so much fun! We were there for 5 days. We had quite the adventure getting to our hotel though. Our super shuttle dropped us off at the wrong hotel and even after telling him that I KNEW that wasn't our hotel (it was so scary looking) he still left us there. So after going to the front desk and actually confirming that we really didn't have reservations there (huge relief) we denied the guys offer to call us a cab and walked about 1-1/2 miles to our hotel with our luggage. We didn't even care walking, we just wanted to get out of there. So after that adventure we spent 5 adventurous days at the happiest place on earth and had a ball!! The picture above was awesome to take. We saw Mr. and Mrs. Incredible and just had to get a picture with them because we were them for Halloween. When it was our turn I told them that we were them for Halloween and they high fived us and then Mr. Incredible stopped our picture taking, tapped me on the shoulder, and pointed at Mrs. incredible trying to tell me to pose like her. Thus, the awesome picture above. Here is a slide show of our time!

Mommy in Arkansas

So this past week I was able to go to Arkansas and babysit my sister's kids while her and her hubby were on a cruise. I had so much fun and I miss those kids so much already, really though, I have already been crying about missing them. Anyways, I didn't get too many pictures because we were always so busy running to and from school, playing, getting sno cones, or just watching a movie. I was able to snap a few pictures of the kids before I left though. Love you Jex, Stella, and Isaac, and I miss you so much!!!

WAHOO!!!

Just had to share my awesome news. I passed all of my tests!!! I am officially a registered dental hygienist! I am in Arkansas right now watching my sister's kids while her and her husband are on a cruise so more updates to come later! I was just way to excited and had to shout it from the rooftops!! World of dental hygiene, here I come!!

Graduation....I am officially done with school!!

Well Monday the 27th was my graduation! I honestly cannot even believe I made it. Looking back it really has went by so fast! I have had a very crazy week since graduation. I have had all of my state boards to be able to be a licensed practicing hygienist. I had a written anesthesia board and a clinical anesthesia board (Dave was kind enough to be my patient to poke) on Thursday, both of which I passed!! And also on Thursday our school received the results of our national written board and our entire class passed!! Today, I had my dental hygiene clinical board. Lets just say it has been a long day, but I feel good about it and I am officially done. Now I just get to play the waiting game, because it takes about 4 wks to get the results from today's test. Once I get the results, I will be able to apply for my license and start working as a hygienist, I am so excited. Thanks to all of those who have been there to support me through my school journey...especially Dave....but WE MADE IT!!

Last day of Dental Hygiene School!!!

Wednesday was my very last day of school!! I have some state tests that I have to take next week and then I just get to wait for my results. We had a really fun day of food, friends, and a dance party of course!!
