Two more...

Two more weeks until I graduate. I am so excited and can't wait to go be with my hubby. I miss him so much. Now I need to find a board patient and I will be doing great! If there is anyone or if anyone knows anyone that hasn't had a cleaning in a very long time, please let me know. I am doing free screenings and it is free to get your teeth cleaned if you qualify to be my board patient. Let me know. I am stressed about it, because I can't go to Alabama until I find one. Anyways, not much has been going on besides trying to get everything in order to be able to graduate. This really is the hardest and most emotional program ever and I am so glad it is coming to an end. I really am excited to move to that next phase and get a career going. Woo hoo (as long as I can pass my boards that is).

Life Update

I got my results back from taking my national boards and I passed!!!! I am so happy about that. Now I only have four more. Also Andrew is in Alabama working for the summer and I am still at ISU until I graduate, then I can go there and be with him!!!

Crazy Week

This wednesday I am taking my first of five boards. I am so nervous. Hopefully I will have heavenly fathers help. I will need it. Also I just wanted to thank my hubby for all he does for me. It is always so supportive to me.

Quick update...

I am just staying busy with school right now and trying to finish out the semester with a diploma hopefully. I really do love dental hygiene and am so excited to start out my profession. As of right now, we are in limbo. We have no idea where we are going to end up so I hope that the lord has some neat plans in store for us. I am sorry I don't have anything really interesting to say.

Happy Valentines Day Sweetie!

That last post from my husband was soooo nice. He doesn't do those types of things often, so when they happen, they are extremely special to me. I actually started crying when I read it so thanks hun. Andrew and I met the day after Thanksgiving in 2005 on a blind date. When I first saw him, I was definately thrown off by his muscles and good looks. We started dating pretty much right away and almost two years later, we got married. Now we have been married for two and a half years and I am so thankful for him. He is a great match for my personality and truly is still so attractive to me. Happy Valentines Day sweetie and I hope there are infinite more to come!

Surprise for my Wife!! :)

Now I know that Shandee gets on here often to check on her blog and to see who all has commented, so I thought that I would not only surprise her with my own entry but also surprise her with her favorite Harry Potter music....(come on babe you know you like it!)

So let me just tell you all (whoever you all are...I don't know who's reading this) how awesome my wife really is. Not only does she put up with me and all my random weirdness but she actually likes me....I KNOW crazy! She cleans the house weekly, and when I say clean....I mean we could perform brain surgery in our living room clean!!! Always does the laundry ( I don't think she trusts me to do it), regaurdless it's nice not to have to worry about it. AND...she's even cooking more! For those that know Shandee that's a big change. When we first met I think her diet mostly consisted of tortilla shells and chilli. :)haha...you know it's true babe!

I just want everyone to know how LUCKY (notice the song) I feel to be with Shandee. She is such a caring and wonderful person. Many times I think she can be misunderstood; her sincere care for others, I think, can be construed as fake; but she honestly does care for each and every person she knows and meets! That is amazing to me because I could probably care less about more than half the people I meet....but I'm a bit of a prick...SOOO...no surprise there.

She constantly is striving to become a better person, both spiritually and physically. She puts forth a full effort in school in order to do her best, even when it may not be needed. She's constantly making goals (even for me) to make sure she is productive. I've never met someone so well rounded. I just think everyone should know that I have the best wife ever! If you don't believe me...I'll beat the crap out of you...haha...jk...kinda.
Shandee...I love you and hope that you get all that you want in life. YOU DESERVE IT!

Time flies

I can't believe that I have been married for 2.5 years, already in my last semester of dental hygiene school, have my bachelors degree, and I can't believe how fast my siblings are growning. It is crazy. Time seems to go faster and faster the older I get. Wow. I am truly thankful for my life and my blessings and hope that the next few months can go by realitively painless with boards and patients. I do love my field that I am going into and I love my husband and my family. I know this is really random, but I just felt like I should express what has been on my mind. I hope the future is bright and wonderful!

Hawaii....again!!! Happy New Year!

What a way to start off the New Year! We were able to go to Hawaii (Oahu and Kauai) and spend time with Andrew's brother and his wife (John and Tammy). We had so much fun. It is amazing to me that there is a place on the earth that stays nice all year long. It was in the 70's and 80's the whole time we were there. It was definately hard to come back to the freezing cold weather. Thanks John and Tammy for letting us come and spend time with you!!!
