A new job, and a new reason to be happy.

I figured I should let everyone know what I'm doing post graduation now. I am EXTREMELY blessed, and was offered a full time job at the dental office I assisted at before school. I've actually been a patient there since I was 4 yrs old, a bunch of my neighbors growing up go to this office, I love the staff, and know a lot of the patients already. So in a way, it felt like coming home. I absolutely LOVE IT!! I work with some of the greatest people ever, I get to catch up with old neighbors, play with darling kids, and do what I love, all while practically laughing all day long. School was soooo worth it. Everyday I thank my Heavenly Father for putting my life in his hands and placing me in such a wonderful situation. I'm soooo happy.

Hooray for Dental Hygiene!!

Trying To Be Crafty

I've been feeling a little crafty lately. A week ago, I thought that I could successfully make an arm band for Jordan to put his cell phone in so he can listen to music while he runs. I spent $6 on materials, and thought I was being super thrifty. But, I didn't get along very well with the sewing machine apparently because it was a complete and utter DISASTER. My Dad and Jordan were there to watch, and were laughing hysterically. I admit, it was really, REALLY bad.

So... I got on the internet that night, and bought him this REAL ARM BAND for a whopping $2.50. (Why when I can get good deals like this, do I even try?) It came in the mail yesterday, and is so much better. When we opened the package Jordan & Dad again had a good laugh at my sewing attempt. I didn't take any pictures of my 1st arm band attempt because I knew everyone would make fun of me. So, use your imagination. I'm sure what I made was worse than anything you can imagine though. Seriously.

After the disaster, I decided to try my hand at painting. This turned out WAY better. I still am embarrassed about the sewing project, but this has to redeem me in some way.

Our Arizona Vacation

We decided to go visit my sister, Julianne and her family in Arizona for my graduation present. We had so much FUN! The weather was FABULOUS, the kids were DARLING, and we didn't want to leave.

Julianne entertained us like crazy. She's such a good host. We went to Scottsdale & walked around the beautiful parks there.

We even rode the train for Landon. "More choo-choo, more choo-choo"

We did a session at the Mesa Temple

We hiked this cool mountain that we called "hole in the rock"

And we tickled and kissed the kids like crazy, cause that's what we do best.

We love you guys, and miss you already!!!

Love, Aunt She-She & Uncle Jordan

Running... A Spectator Sport

Saturday, Jordan and I spent our day RUNNING. Okay, maybe we were just spectators. We went to the Ogden Marathon to see our friends Chauny & Chris, and Dad run the race.

Look at my Dad. He's 62, hurt his back & his foot this season, and still ran 26.2 miles with a smile on his face. All I can say is that...HE IS AMAZING!!!!

After that we drove down to Provo to see Jordan's little sister, Sylvia run in the state highschool track meet. We sat in the sun for a few hours waiting for her to run, but she never did. She got the times mixed up so we missed her. But... we did get a nice sunburn and got to eat at In 'N Out so it wasn't a total loss. So after watching all these incredibly fit people run all day. What did we do? We signed up for two 5Ks. We need to get our butts in gear. We're running the Ogden 5K in June and the Layton 4th of July 5K.

Wish us luck, and maybe you'll see us next year doing the half marathon. (haha)

Look Mom, I'm a Graduate!!

Well it's official. I am a graduate of Weber State University with a Bachelor's Degree in Dental Hygiene. I honestly never thought I'd say that.

We had a nice graduation banquet for all the Dental Hygiene students and their families at the Timbermine Steakhouse. It was really nice and made me feel special. It was fun to show Jordan and my parents all my friends and teachers I've had the past 2 years.

Pres. Monson was our commencement speaker, and he did such a great job. I felt really honored to have him there at my graduation. These are his ABC's for a new graduate.

A) Have a positive ATTITUDE in all you do

B) BELIEVE in yourself, and what you can achieve

C) Have the COURAGE to overcome the challenges that come your way

My BFF through Dental Hygiene school Staci. We worked at Dr. Morgan's together before school, and it was so fun to have a buddy to go through the program with.

The whole crew. These girls bring more drama and stress than anyone or anything I know. Yet I absolutely love them, and already miss seeing them everyday.

This was our senior picture.

My support group... super model sister, McKenzie

World's best parents

Perfect hubby, Jordan

Camille & Brad's cute family

Kim's family, and Grandma & Dana also came.

My parents gave me this necklace. I had to post a picture of it because I think it's so cute. RDH stands for Registered Dental Hygienist for those of you that were confused. And that's a tooth and a pearl. I think it's so cute.

I just did a little bit of this...

so now I'm going to treat myself to a little bit of this...

and this...

I deserve it.

Boards... that was so last month

Okay, I'm almost done talking about Dental Hygiene, I promise. I just had to announce that I'm completely finished with lame, stressful, expensive, long, killer exams... and I have the papers that say I passed to prove it. Now only 17 more days until Graduation!

I sent out my graduation announcements today. It was my first time making something with my new photoshop program. It was fun, and I think they turned out okay.

I'm so excited to be done, but honestly. I have met some of the greatest girls on earth, and I'm really going to miss seeing them every day. Love you guys!

Last week my sister Camille brought her whole family up from Heber to get their teeth cleaned. It's been so fun to have my family come up and see what I do. They've all been so supportive.

And in other news... Jordan is amazing!!! He got awarded a $5000 scholarship today for Fall and Spring Semesters next year. I'm so proud of him.

WE ARE SO BLESSED!!!
