Christmas Pictures
















I am a little bit behind posting these, plus my computer was being repaired. All of these pictures were from Christmas on my mom's side of the family. I have more pictures from our tree, but my camera is hiding and I haven't uploaded those pics yet!! I've been a slacker on posting because I got an Ipod touch for an early birthday present so I've been playing with that! I'll try to stay more updated :)

Back to school

Well school started back today. It was hard getting back into a routine because I have been sleeping in really late. 6:00AM came really early this morning! I just got back from Llano after being there for 11 days. It was so great to spend time with Brian and not really do much. That was the purpose of my trip...to do nothing!! With school starting back, my life becomes pretty hectic. I have my schedule planned until the month of May...pretty pathetic, but its a must in Nursing school. I am glad that this is my last semester of nursing school, but also a little scared. After May I won't be a nursing student, I'll be a real nurse! Its scary!! I have lots of decisions to make in the next couple months and I just hope that I can stay sane while making the best decision possible!!

On another note: My future sister-in-law just recently got engaged. I am happy for her and Josh, they are both great people. Their wedding will be here before we know it!! All the fun wedding planning will now be shared with Kelli!

Brian and I decided to move our wedding until after I get out of school. I want to dedicate all my time to school and I think wedding planning will be more fun if I don't have to do it in between tests. So as of now we don't have an official date anymore...but another date is soon to come!! I can't wait!

Headed to Llano

I'm heading to Llano tomorrow to spend the weekend and next week with Brian.  I took this time to spend with him because I am not sure how hectic school will be.  I can't believe that the Spring semester has already gotten here!  I am thankful that it is my last semester though!!

Everyone always asks me if I will go on to get my Bachelor's degree in Nursing, but right now I just don't see myself doing that.  I am TIRED of school!!  If I went back now I don't think I would put all the effort into it that I need to.  Maybe down the road I will go back??

I love spending time with Brian and we have gotten to spend many days together over the break!  School is going to kill me because that's when we hardly get to see each other!!  I believe that our love will get us through this time in our life and that we will be stronger because of it!  

Have a great weekend!

Crash and Burn!

Well I am back from Llano again and I will go back this Friday.  I got to Llano on Wednesday, but we really didn't do much that day or on Thursday.  On Friday, Megan came to Llano because she wanted to see Brian, she hadn't seen him since Christmas.  Friday afternoon Brian, Megan and I rode horses, much to my opposition.  I like to ride slow, they on the other hand like to ride fast!  Well the ride was going just fine until Megan and Brian took off running.  I managed to control my horse for a little while, but when my feet slipped from the stirrups it was a wreck!  I fell off/jumped off (not sure it was all a blur) before hitting a tree.  I ended up with scrapes, bruises and bumps, but I am finally not sore!!  Brian was so far ahead, he didn't even realize I fell off until my horse came up, WITHOUT ME!

Kelli and Josh showed up Friday night from Canadian after their long drive.  Brian and I decided to bar-b-que some ribs and they were great!!  Saturday we all decided to go bowling.   I was the loser, but hanging out with everyone was a lot of fun!  Megan and Brian rode horses Saturday and again on Sunday!  I think Megan would ride every day if she could.  Saturday night we played an intense game of Trivia Pursuit!!  We had a lot of fun and created some funny memories!

I also just finished my book, The Lucky One by Nicholas Sparks, it was really good.  Brian didn't like that I read so much, but once I start a book I just can't put it down!!  

Brian and I are in good spirits and enjoy the time that we get to spend together.  We have difficult times ahead of us, but we're ready to face them together.  Nothing is better than spending time with family and loved ones!  Happy 2009 :)
