What a WEEK!!!

So this last week I started my second job at Noah Webster Academy!

Can I just tell you how much I LOVE it! I am a teacher assistant in the first grade classes. Those kids sure are a ton of fun!!

Adam Gev and I Halloween cutout

Gev, the little girl I use to nanny is in one of the classes and I love getting to see her everyday! Adam the little boy I used to nanny also goes to that school and I get to see him everyday as well during recess! It’s So Fun! I only work 3 hours Monday thru Friday but I seriously love every minute! I spend the first 30 minutes in Mrs. Benjamin’s class (grading their homework and walking around the class helping them with their current assignment) and then it is off to morning recess. After that I spend 30 minutes in Mrs. Harris’ class (Gev’s class)  followed by 30 minutes in Mrs. Reyes-Cairos Class. After that I am in the lunch room for about 15 minutes helping the kids warm their food and making sure they clean up after themselves. Once most of the kids have gone out for recess I head out and spend the remaining 40 minutes of my time with them outside. I watch over the kids playing in the field and I get to play with Adam and Gev! They go in 15 minutes before I leave and those last 15 minutes are the LONGEST minutes I am there lol. The 5th and 6th graders can get pretty crazy those last 15 minutes of recess!! lol

So now my weeks are crazy busy and I LOVE it… Here is an outline of what my week looks like.

If needed I head back to work after the hospital in case I didn’t get everything done in the morning.

Thursday Night are my night to just relax.

Weekends are pretty chill. I get to sleep in, which I LOVE, and just have fun shopping hanging out at home, chilling with friends and family, whatever I want.

So as you can see from above my life is super busy but I am LOVING every minute of it! My life has been drama free and I have enjoyed spending my time with people who are stress free! It make my life so much better! I seriously couldn’t ask for anything more right now!!

Just to end with a quote that I have loved this past week…
”There comes a time in life when you have to let go of all the pointless drama and the people who create it and surround yourself with people who make you laugh so hard that you forget the bad and focus solely on the good. After all, life is too short to be anything but happy!”

Have a great week everyone!!!

Life sure is a roller coaster!!!

Yesterday was sure one of those days that make life truly seem like a roller coaster. My day started off great. Went to work and got a TON of work done!! Amanda and I have been sharing my car since her car has been having some troubles recently. She picked me up and we headed home.

When we got home Amanda went and let our sweet puppies out of their cage. She pulled them out of their cage and Paco, my sweet baby, was shaking and had a blank stare on his face. What a horrible sight to see from you puppy, especially when he is only 11 weeks old! We rushed him to the vet. By the time we got there he had thrown up twice and for a while seemed lifeless. The doctor did a TON of tests and come to find out he is he has hypoglycemia. Which means his blood sugar level gets low. If not taken care of he can have seizures and could possibly die. Sometimes it may only happen once to a dog and we were instructed to go home and if it happened again we were to give him sugar water and call the vet.

We got home and everything was going fine. It had been hours with no more episodes. I went to bed and around 12:30 Amanda came rushing into my room crying, holding both dogs and saying Crawl (Amanda’s dog) was having an episode. It was actually Paco who was having another episode. We did as instructed and the episode passed. Thank goodness!!

First thing this morning I called the vet and was instructed to go buy some meds/vitamins filled with sugar. We have to give it to him 4-6 times per day. I went and bought some right after work and gave him some as soon as I got home. Luckily it has been almost one whole day and no episode! YAY!!! Also the doctor said he should get over it by the time he is 6 months old! Only 3 months to go!!!

I can honestly say that that was one of the scariest experiences I have ever had! I could not handle it if Paco would not have made it. I am SO happy and thankful that everything is okay and that he will eventually grow out of it! If we stay on top of it there will be no side effects to my sweet baby! It’s difficult and sad that he has this problem but better something that will most likely not effect him badly but also will go away with in a few months!

Here are the latest pictures of our cute puppies!! ENJOY! :)

Paco loves getting his tummy rubbed! Just like his daddy!

Long Update with some pics!!

Wow it’s been a LONG time!! I’m sorry all! I will try harder to post something more frequently (I know I keep saying that but I will try! promise!) Life sure has been crazy the past couple of months! Filled with many adventures! So this is going to be a LONG post… be prepared!

So… Since I haven’t posted anything since April… Why don’t I start by filling everyone in on what went down in May… Most of May was spent working long and late hours helping Kathy finish her packets for graduation. After doing that I definitely don’t miss high school although it did make me miss school… college to be exact. I really can’t wait to go back and get my degree! Hopefully sooner rather than later!

Anyway… May… was a great time for ROADTRIPS! Amanda, Kathy and I headed down to Vegas… The drive down was the best part of the trip! (weird… I KNOW! lol) I did enjoy shopping on the strip! Our hotel was amazing!!  With a wonderful pool that I did enjoy a day in! and last but not least… I rode the New York New York roller coaster… and boy does that ride hurt your neck! lol I will probably NEVER ride it again… but at least I can say I rode a roller coaster in Vegas haha.

My camera didn’t like me to much down in Vegas so Kak has all the pics… Although I will share the only one I have.. lol Enjoy! Group hug with the Coca cola polar bear!!

Vegas 09

May ended with Kak’s graduation!! What an AWESOME day! I don’t know anyone who deserved to graduate and walk with her class more than she did. She busted her butt to get her packets done with everything else going on!  She is AMAZING! again… I don’t have any pics… Sad I KNOW!! I will post some as soon as I get some!

JUNE!!!

June was such a great month! It started out with Kak’s birthday!! So our tradition for the past couple years has been that just the girls celebrate on the birthday… Well Kathy was not to happy with that… she wanted Blake to join in on the birthday fun… Little did she know… that was always the plan!  It started out with us making her breakfast… After the food was ready we told Kathy that her present was waiting on the porch.  She opened the door and Blake was there holding her present.  She freaked… it was such a great surprise! After we all headed to Seven peaks for a fun filled day of swimming!! After a quick nap (on my part lol) and showers we headed to dinner and than up to the drive-in.  I can’t believe Kak is 18! Crazy! Love you girl! Here are some fun pics from her birthday.

Now for LAKE POWELL!!

What a fun week! I haven’t been in years! and it was sooo nice! I got so TAN! (don’t worry didn’t last long! lol) Days filled with sleeping under the stars (my favorite!!) fishing, boating, wakeboarding, reading, relaxing, listening to music, watching movies! Who could have asked for a better week!! Here are some pics! :)

The rest of June was spent working hard, and painting my house. We got Amanda’s room, the laundry room and the guest bedroom all painted! I can’t wait to finish the rest of the house! it’ll look so nice once it is all done! I don’t have any pics of the painting but will post some once the house is done! :)  I have also been working on my recipe book! I have found so many recipes I can’t wait to try!

JULY!!!

July was full of family time! I spent almost every spare moment that I wasn’t working with family! It’s was sooo nice! Amanda DeMille spent the 4th with us! It was so fun! Her, Kathy, Blake and I headed down to provo for the freedom festival. After we were so tired we just crashed at my house! That night we watched some awesome fireworks!!

Kathy moved down to St. George… Which is so sad! But I am so happy for her! It’s exciting for her to experience new things. Although I miss her dearly! 

Amanda moved in with me! It’s been sooo nice! I love it!! I am excited to see what adventures are in store for us!! It’s so nice to have her go with me to our single’s ward!

Kathy came up towards the end of July to pack up her stuff and get ready for her big move. While she was here we had a ton of fun! Shopping, watching movies, chilling, and the SPANISH FORK RODEO!!! I haven’t been to a rodeo in years… but I had so much fun!! Kak and I decided to go all out and wear cowboy hats and cowboyish clothes… as best we could on a low budget! lol Here are some fun pics of that!

This was a very hot clown we enjoyed watching! lol

So I think I got everything… I promise to post more soon!

Oh how could I forget! In June one of our dog had puppies! There are so cute! As of Sunday they are living with Amanda and I in American Fork. I will be so sad when Paco leaves but as of right now I am just enjoying all the time I can with him. Paco and Crawl are so fun to play and cuddle with! Here are some of the latest pics I have of them!!!

Flowers!!!!

SOOO… even though I don’t love the weeding part… I love planting flowers and seeing them in the yard when I am all done… so I decided that I really want to plant flowers in a month at my house (wherever I am leaving at the time haha) :) They just bright the day! I can’t wait!  Here are some of my favorite flowers… Although I don’t like picking out flowers to plant haha I am excited to decide which ones I will put in my yard.

A Couple More Pages…

OK so I haven't had much time to do more digital scrapbooking pages the past couple of months... but I do have a couple more... Of course if you read my blog you will probably already have seen most of them since I like to put them as the title picture... but here you go anyway! :D Keep in mind I am still learning and getting more "elements" to use on my pages. These pages are of me and my Twin cousins Dallen and Tyler. They are so cute!! I love them!! This one I made for Kathy. It is of her and her missionary. I made it as a sort of "reward" for all her packets she has been getting done. These pictures are from our Cali trips last year. We went twice, once in August and again in October, they were such fun trips!! This one as you can see is of my sisters and I. They are crazy girls but I love them tons!! lol They are so funny and are always making me smile! :D So the main reason I make these are for backgrounds on my work computer (another big reason why I don't make very many... I change it once a month) but hopefully I can get more free time to actually make pages for events... I'm excited to get some good pictures this summer!!
