IM FIRED

I know, I am the worst blogger ever. Here is a little update over the last few months. I started school again in August, 2nd semester of nursing school. Its quite busy but good. This semester I have Medical/Surgical, Maternal/Newborn and Pediatrics. I am really loving OB so far its so fascinating and makes me Baby hungry!!! YIKES. Of course I plan to stay at Primarys but I would love to one day get my NP in Nurse Midwife so its a good thing I like OB.
Other news we got a house!! We are so close to closing and we are so freakin excited. I am so ready to finally "settle" down in a home. I am so ready to let go of the lame apt living. I cant wait to be able to have my windows open and know weirdos arent peering into my living room each time they walk by and finally my cats can sit and sunbathe. Im ready to sit out on my patio and have privacy and not feel like i have to say hi to everyone who comes by. Im ready to not have to talk to my neighbors if i dont feel like it. dont get me wrong, i live by very nice people but i get sick of talking to them EVERDAY. Is that bad? Im most excited to have space to call all mine. I hope friends will come see us now since we have ROOM to have BBQ's and parties of our own. AHHHHH finally gonna be a grown up :) I will have pics soon. I have one of the outside on my facebook but i cant get it to post onto here(maybe cuz i am at work doing this so its telling me NO). Its gonna be so fun. Hope everyone is well. Take care.

oops....

So I have to admit I have slacked on my blog because I have gotten sucked into the Facebook world. Sorry!! This summer has been a good one so far. We have been bbqing alot, hanging out with friends and family, relaxing and enjoying our central air and we went camping once to the cabin so far over the fourth. WOW Mt. Pleasant knows what they are doing when it comes to fireworks. It was the grand finale for the whole twenty minute show. We found a cute kitten that was up a tree for like six hours before she finally came down and OF COURSE she had to be a sweetheart so we took her home and someone from my work took her. NO MORE STRAYS!!! I wish I could take them all but until I have more room NO. Anyways hope everyone is having a great summer. I will try real hard to post more often I just totally forget. Take care

It's over........for now

Yea, the first semester of Nursing school is over! I passed my classes :) I was PRETTY scared for my pharmacology class I was sitting right on the edge but I did very good on my final so I passed just fine. I will start again in the fall and next semester will be super fun with classes in Med/Surg, Peds and Maternal/Newborn. Im excited.
So now I have the summer off and we plan on doing lots of camping, bbq's and just getting outside. We definilty need to take advantage of the outdoors more. Especially since we are kid free!! Love Utah summers!!
Oh yeah and we are trying to find a house this summer so hopefully we will be homeowners sometime soon :)
Have fun, see you soon.

A fun weekend :)

This was a great weekend. On friday we celebrated our great friends Devan and Kindra getting married. They had a beautiful ceremony and reception at Red Butte gardens. Here are some of my favorite pics of the wedding. Congrats to them both!!

After the wedding we went over to Sheena and Codys and hung out like we were young again. We were up til about three that night. The next day we slept in and just hung out. Later that nignt we went to the Millers to watch the fight and were so tired from the night before (trying to be young again) that we were home by midnight and passed out.
Sunday however we were very productive in our BEE HUNT. YES BEES. I apologize to all you flower and bee lovers I heard there was a shortage of bees this year and we have added to the lesser count. There was a huge nest somewhere by our patios so us and our neighbors T&A were out tanning and shooting bees with a pellet gun. I got one!! We even lured them in with leftover fries. Nothing says ghetto WVC like shooting bees with a pellet gun on a sunday, sitting in lawn chairs in front of an apartment complex drinking beers at 1-2 in the afternoon for a good 4-5 hours. Oh yeah living the high life!! ;)

Im Back.......

Ok Ok I know it has been FOREVER since I posted. Thanks to all you loyal friends who still care :) So the last month and a half has been so so busy and fun. I started going to St. Joseph's Villa for my clinicals and have had an interesting time. I definitly could not do the nursing home part of nursing but the Alzheimer's unit was an absolute blast.

Me and Tyler celebrated our official TEN year anniversary on March 9th. That was the original date of our becoming a couple. A whole DECADE has gone by and I am so so proud to still be a part of eachothers lives. We have overcome some true hardships and have celebrated some very wonderful memories too. I am honestly so blessed to have met my soul mate those many years ago and have grown so much because of him. Thanks to all of you who have supported and encouraged our relationship through the years. We have some of the most amazing friends and family.

My cute little nephew turned 3 on March 11 and he had his party at Jumping Jacks. A very fun place. He got a bike and is actually pretty good at riding it already. He has always been so coordinated so it was easy for him too catch onto. P.S. my Mom made this Lion cake.

My great friend Sheena had her birthday on March 19 and we celebrated in style that weekend. We went to dinner at Skybox with a bunch of friends and Tyler ordered the most ENORMOUS hamburger I have ever seen. We had leftovers for two days!! And it was actually pretty good. Then we went to her house and hosted our own style of Karaoke. Singing to the radio with wooden spoons and kitchen utensils in hand :) It was so fun.

Other than that we have just stayed busy with work and me with school too. My work has finally slowed down, Respiratory season seems to have come to an end finally. Now it will soon be time for Trauma season.Yes my work has seasons. Remember to have your kids wear helmets and seatbelts, lock your house windows so they can't fall out, be extra careful on those big ATV's, remind them not to ride their bikes, skateboards, scooters or rolller blades on busy streets and as a driver, remember to look behind your car when backing up and look both ways at a school cross walk. If you do all this the summer for you can still be lots of fun!!

Ok enough of my soap box....Thanks to all my friends who have been great supports this past month with all my stress. I truly appreciate it. We will make it thru I know and you were a big part of it. Hope everyone is well, I will try real hard to keep up on my posting. Take care.

Superbowl '09

Oh the Superbowl....It was so fun this year. Im very sad that the Cardinals didn't pull it off. They definitly had their chances though.
I wasn't too impressed by the 3D thing but it was fun to see grown adults in the glasses.
This was a sad moment when the steelers ran that crazy yardage interception/touchdown.

Oh my the food. Our menu consisted of Coconut shrimp, Bloody mary chicken wings, a ham/turkey sandwich spread, stuffed mushrooms, meatball sandwiches, chips and guac, twice baked potatoes and double chocolate cupcakes. Oh yeah and plenty of cocktails to go with it all. I had to eat in shifts it was so good I had to try everything.

This is cute little Raider, one of my friends new baby.

Overall it was a "super" fun day. It doesn't get any better than watching football on a nice sunny day, drinking and hanging with friends and eating some AMAZING food.

Im still here.....

I promise I still want to blog I just havent had too much going on. I started nursing school and thats been fun. We are both still working so thats good. My birthday was way fun and we are still doing way good. Living life the best we can and loving it. Hope everyone is well and happy. I will try to find something interesting to blog about soon. Take care, Tausha
