ATI Test tomorrow

Tomorrow is a big day...Carly takes her ATI test, which is a comprehensive exam which covers all material from her entire nursing program. Graduates have to pass this exam just to qualify for the NCLEX (her boards) which she will take later next month. She has studied tirelessly for this exam, and I have every confidence in the world that she will do awesome (awesomely?) She really deserves it.

Good luck babe! :) I love you...

Snowmobiling!

This weekend we went up the "the cabin" to go snowmobiling with Scott and Andrea. We had SO MUCH FUN! Holy Cow. We cant wait to go back!
Joel and I both got our machines stuck in the snow. After a few minutes of digging it out, Scott told me to back up because when he drove it out the machine would kick up a lot of snow. He was right...and I didnt back up far enough! lol

These are the machines....stuck in the powder. Stupid powder!

Snow pants are soooooo flattering. I love them!

This is Dead Mans Hill. It is really tall and steep. I was SOOOOO scared! And actually coming down was 10 times scarier than going up!

Finished Project!

Finally finished my project and got it framed! I stole this whole idea from Jessie Polli (Steve Pierces wife) who has this on her table. Its cuter in person I promise!!

Tara Rollins Baby Shower!

My friend Tara is getting ready to have her baby girl! Here are a few pictures from her baby shower! Congrats Tara!!

Just to See you Smile!

I know that my last post was a "brag about my husband" post but here we go again! He just gives me too many opportunities! So tonight Joel went to bed before me because I was watching "While you were sleeping" and apparently Joel wasn't that into it. When I went to the bedroom I noticed this card on my pillow! It is my first singing card that I have ever received! The outside says, Anything. That's what I'd do for you. The inside says Everything. That's what you mean to me ANDDDD...it sings the time mcgraw song "just to see you smile". He is so sweet because he always remembers our month-iversaries. Gotta love him!

Ill try to limit my mushy post from now on but I want to record some of them so I can remember the small things he does for me all the time!

Thanks for the mayo!

So tonight when Joel got off work I called him and asked him to stop by the store and grab some celery and bread so that we could have chicken salad sandwiches. The second that he walked in the door I realized that we didn't have any mayo!! My heart sank! lol not really but I was pretty bummed because there is a snow/rain storm going on right now and I knew that there was noooo way that I would go to the store in those conditions! I told Joel that he didnt need to go to the store and that we would just figure something else out. He knew I really was not too excited about cereal for dinner so he wouldn't take no for an answer. Right now he is at the store picking up some mayo so we can have our simple little dinner. He is great...and I am spoiled! Love him!

A Wonderful Valentines Day!

I made this little craft for Joel. I have to admit I TOTALLY copied Jessie Polli but I thought it was so cute! Its not quit finished yet. I'm still looking for the perfect frame. I came home it this! Joel decorated our whole from room! It was soo cute! And of course some of my favorite treats were scattered throughout.

Joely enjoying some of Mica Gs famous Oreo Cake balls. They really are the best things on the planet!

Isn't he just the best, most hottest, sweet, thoughtful valentine EVER??? I think so! :)

Unfortunately we forgot to take a picture of the gifts that I got Joel. We had a pretty small budget for gifts so I had to be creative. I always steal Joels socks so I got him a few pairs of socks with a note that said, "We are the perfect pair!" I also got him some Crush soda with a note that said, "You are my biggest crush!". Best of all I gave him some of Micas famous oreo cake balls. It was a simple but very fun Valentines Day!

PIZZA AND FORTS....doesnt get better than that!

Here we go again! Its so sad that so much time has passed unrecorded. This time I am determined to keep up this blog! This months goal: At least one blog post per week! (get excited!) So...This weeks blog features our Saturday night "date"! We both got home from work late, picked up a pizza, and made a fort! (and by fort I mean futons and blankets in front of our TV haha) Making forts is one of our favorite things to do! I loved making forts as a kid and I still love it today! I wish we had a picture of the pizza but....it was too good! I also wish I could post a "normal smiley face" picture of me and Joel but those are hard to come by.

We're alive!

This post (and picture) is mainly to serve as a reminder that we are STILL ALIVE. I know most of you have been worried sick due to our recent absence from blogging, but let me assure you, we are alive and well. This is a quaint picture from our most recent visit to Canada to see Mom and Dad Williams (and siblings). We had an absolute awesome, awesome time there. This particular picture was taken in Johnson's Canyon, or something. It was really fun.

Welp, til next time!
