My mom and I like to go garage saleing (s/p). Well this past Saturday my mom stopped and found a vacuum cleaner for 2, I repeat 2 bucks!!! And it works awesome!!! You may be asking yourself, 'why the heck is she soo happy about a vacuum???? ' I'll tell you...it will be a goood starter vacuum for when I get my own place, and for 2 bucks, why not?!?!? My mom ...she is a thinker!
Nicole : Aren't you proud??? :)
I am ready for the weekend! Although, my week hasn't been horrible or anything. I am just looking forward to Saturday. I have been working the last couple of days, and I am more then happy to work. This week has been slow because of the Monday being a holiday, so I didn't think I would work all that much. I am surprised I am getting 3 days in! My plan is to work as close to full time that I can. I even am working tomorrow!!! ( who knew I would be happy about that! Ha!) And then after work I am planning on running a couple (hopefully) quick errands and then I am going to go to Heather's and babysit her 2 kids. I went and met/hung out with them for a little bit last week and they are just the cutest! I'm excited to get to know them better!
As for Saturday...I am going to be busy! I am going to a bridal shower with my mom and 12:30, and then after that Bobby and I are going to a wedding reception in Grand Rapids. Busy. Busy. Busy. But I am looking forward to getting to see lots of people, and taking lots of pictures!
Ahhh...its nice to sit down and relax. Today I stayed pretty busy. I was on-call for work, its pretty slow...because of the Holiday weekend. So my mom and I spent the day together. We went and got Chinese for lunch. YUM-O. We made a quick stop over at JoAnn's and picked out some silk flowers for by the garage. And then we went and saw Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End. I thought it was really good. Really, really long but still good. Lots of details and special effects. Afterwards we just came home and made dinner. It was a great day to just hang out and get a few things done while spending time together.
Last night for Memorial Day, Bobby and I went to Cascade's Park and saw the fireworks! They were really really good this year! The finale was awesome! HUGE in fact. We had a pretty good time. We were both tired and chilly but we still had a nice time together. I love going to see the fireworks! Its one of my most favorite memories that I have with my mom from growing up. We would always go, no matter what. We never missed the fireworks!
Today Bobby and I are going out to Leslie and Jades for a cookout. I think that we're even gonna bring the dogs. ( Our dogs, not hot dogs! Haha!) So we'll hang out there for a bit and relax and enjoy the awesome weather that we've got going on today. No rain!! Yay!! Its been raining here on and off for the last 3 or 4 days. So I think we will really enjoy the sun today!!
Have a great Memorial Day!!
Last night Bobby, Tom, Ashley and I went to see Shrek the Third. I loved it! It was pretty darn funny. I have enjoyed all the Shrek movies and the third one made the series complete. I still think the first one was the best, but I thought the third was funny, cute, and amusing, (they still add in adult humor). I had a good time. Bobby liked the movie too, he just felt overwhelmed by all the little kids in the theater! Haha! So if you haven't seen the third Shrek, you should!
When I watched Reyna on Monday I of course took my camera - - - and my camera so happens to have a mini vidio recorder on it. I set Rey on her floor gym and she just went to town. I grabbed the camera and caught Reyna---wait till you see this...
ENJOY!
ENJOY!
Thanks again Denise for your help!!!
and hello to nice, smooth straight hair. That's right... On Tuesday when I went to the salon for a hair cut, Stacey(my stylist) straightened my hair back to normal. I just could NOT stand that perm! I just wanted my hair to be normal again. And she did it FREE OF CHARGE which I thought was awfully nice of her! And now my hair is just like it was before the perm and I love it! It doesn't get all frizzy and poofy and believe it or not it is so much easier. Plus I'm not self conscious about it anymore!
Tonight Bobby had a hockey game. They won!!! 6-1. There was even a fight! But the team they played had some really bad sportsmanship going on. They quit when there was still 2 minutes left in the game. Bobby had a big cheering section tonight. Lisa, Leslie his Aunt Diane, Rocky and of course, me! Its really neat to go to those games. I am actually understanding the game more and more. When I first started dating Bobby I knew nothing about hockey...and now whenever we watch a hockey game or anything I have a pretty good idea about what's going on. The games go so fast though, sometimes its hard to keep up with what all is going on!
The Cheerleaders!
Monday morning I went over to Leslie's house bright and early to watch Rey while Leslie went into town. When I got there at 7:30, the baby was still sleeping and didn't wake up until 8:40. But she woke up laughing and with happy screams! She was in such a good mood and she looked at me like she was thinking ..." Hey, you're here! Normally I see you later....Hmmm." We played and hung out and then Leslie came back and we had a bite to eat then took a little trip to Battle Creek and made a few stops. Afterwards we ended up meeting Lisa at Sam's Club, and did a little shopping. And then I got to spend the rest of the evening relaxing with Bobby.
I have a little movie clip I'd like to post but Im not sure how....anyone know how???
That's it....THREE questions???? Im sure you guys out there reading can do better then that!
Come on, ask me something!
I have got to have more then 3 people reading this blog!
hair product that is. When Bobby's Aunt Jeanette was in Michigan she told me to get something called "Frizz-ease" By John Frieda and I LOVE IT! It works so good and it makes my hair so soft and shiny. I just wanted to share that with everyone. Just in case anyone out there reading would know that there is a product out there that actually WORKS and kills the frizz!
With my camera. Yesterday it was so nice outside I felt like playing around with the settings on my camera and taking some pictures. Along the sidewalk the daisy's are just starting to bloom and really open up. So I took a few pictures of them, Daisy's are my absolute favorite flower! They are so simple looking when you take a glance at them. But as you look at them they become more complex. I'll show you....
Pictures explain everything....
Simple Right???
Wrong!
Look again...

See how detailed the center is?
Look even closer...

Isn't that amazing??
I love daisy's!
When you first see then you think they are just a very plain Jane flower,
but as you look closer, they really are not!
They're just simply Beautiful!
I got this from Nicole's blog. . . .
Its where my readers (YOU) ask me anything you want to know about me. Just click on the comments link, and ask me anything! Then I will make a second post answering all of the questions. Its just a fun way to get to know me. So PLEASE leave a question. It doesn't take but a minute to leave a comment.
Okay so in the past week I have been such a BAD Blogger!!! I tell ya, this week has just flown by so quickly I feel like I can hardly catch my breath! On Tuesday I had a dentist appointment and I am glad to report that I have no cavities and that my teeth are looking good. There's nothing like getting your teeth cleaned. I worked on Wednesday and Thursday and the work day went by quick. I think in those 2 days I worked, 8 post-ops came to the unit, which is great because that means WORK! Wednesday night I did something neat, Bobby and his parents and I went to see Northwest High School Band perform at the college. They did a collage of their music from the year. It kind of inspired me to pick up the piano again, which I haven't really just sat down and played in a while. I miss playing sometimes. But I have just been so darn busy that by the time I get home and had a free minute, something else needs to be done.
I had Friday off and I helped my mom in the garden and doing yard work. She is having her garden club over Monday night and wanted to get the yard/house cleaned up before hand. So my parents and I worked outside most the afternoon. Later that night Bobby, Ashley, Tom and I went to Ice Cream Parlor and got sundaes and then we hung out at Ashley's apartment for a bit. We didn't stay long because I had to get up early to work on Saturday.
Then today... I worked and it was a great Saturday to work! The patients we great, and the day wasn't slow but it wasn't hectic either. The day was just right. And I was sooo happy that it didn't drag. Saturday's at the hospital tend to just drag because there aren't any surgeries and many patients go home.
At the current moment Bobby and I are over at Jade and Leslie's. We have been hanging out here since 5ish and just enjoying each other's company. Jade made dinner. It was fantastic! HoBo's. Its a mixture of meat and veggies that get rolled up into foil and then just thrown on the grill for like 15 minutes. They were great! Quick and easy! I'm gonna have to keep the HoBo meals in mind. :) Now we off to play some domino's!
Tomorrow I'm going back to work!! YAY!
Sorry I have been a bad blogger, I will try to keep up with the week better!!!
No pictures!!! I have been so bad and remembering to take my camera with me!!!
That's right, this is my 100th post. Kinda hard to believe. I never thought I would have a blog like this and actually enjoy updating it. Well most of the time enjoy updating. :) But I like to do it because it helps to keep other people that are far away or that I don't get the chance to talk to very often up to date on what's going on in my life...
M*O*N*D*A*Y
What a day! I went into work later than normal (8:45) just because there was only 5 patients. But there were SIX surgeries coming later in the day. Well I got there and there wasn't much of anything for me to do....and then only TWO of the surgeries came on my shift. Oh well, easy money I guess. After work I went out to Leslie and Jade's for a while. I just hung out with Rey while Leslie did things around the house and outside. Leslie even made me dinner! Thanks again Les! I stayed until 8. Leslie and I just kept finding more and more things to get done! LOL!
As for the rest of my night, I am gonna just take it easy! I'm gonna re-paint my toe nails and just RELAX! I don't have to work tomorrow, but I DO have to go to the dentist...YEPPIE! Afterwards I might take Cooper to the park (Weather pending) and then later in the day I'm gonna hang out with Bobby and got to his Hockey game.
I hope that everyone had a good Monday!
First of all Happy Mother's Day to anyone who is a Mom.
My day has been pretty good. My Dad and I took my Mom out to the Clark Lake Golf Course where they had a brunch. It was really good. They always have a big variety of foods and my mom really enjoys it. (I'll post pictures later).
But I wanted to let everyone know that I have been scrapbooking like CrAzY!!! I just finished 2 layouts and I am feeling pretty accomplished. I think that I am doing okay at it. I actually have been taking my time and I have found that I really enjoy doing it. My pages look pretty decent, I think. So now I am all about taking pictures, you saw my pictures from when Bobby and I went out on a date....I felt silly taking pictures of our food being cooked but I thought it was neat and at the time I was thinking..."Cool!! I might want to make a page for my scrapbook about this..." Haha.
Well its getting late and this post was very random but I wanted to at least post something so my readers knew what I was up to!!
Please leave me comments!!! I love to hear from YOU!!!
Last Night, Bobby took me out on a date for our Annversary which was Monday, May 7th. We decided that we get out of Jackson and go somewhere different. We both got all dressed up and took trip to Ann Arbor And we decidedto eat at the Mongolian BBQ. We had a lot of fun. The food was great. And it was so neat getting to create your own meal.
Afterwards, we walked around downtown and looked at some shops and then came back to town. We were going to go see a movie but we didn't really feel like it so we came back to my place and watch the Wings play. Haha. It sounds funny but it was a really great time. 
It was a great date Babe! I love you!!!

This morning I took my LAST, I repeat, MY LAST exams for this semester! I was soooo happy to get it done! And I got a 3.5 on it, so I was very happy!
Then I went to Bobby's and hung out with him and his aunt...she left today :(. But it was soo wonderful to have her here in Michigan! I with all of his family lived closer because I just love them to death! I'm hoping that Bobby and I can make a little trip to Florida this summer to see everyone!
In Lou of the hot, not warm but HOT weather, Bobby and I had a small water balloon fight!! Which means he chased me around the yard, armed with water balloons. None the less it was pretty fun. But I'm not the only one that got wet....he had his share of balloons thrown at him!!! Haha.
For the rest of the night, I am just going RELAX! A really really good change from being sooo super busy with school. I am going to read my Glamour magazine and just kick back and watch Idol later. Sounds pretty good to me.
Tomorrow I start working full time at the hospital. I am looking forward to it. At least I don't have to study for it!!!
Have a wonderful night, I'm gonna go enjoy this awesome weather!!!
Today I was at Target and found this really cute HoBo bag. And its YELLOW! ( My favorite color!)
PLUS it was only 10 bucks!
I thought it was a pretty good deal and a pretty cute spring/summer bag...
what do you think???
Sooo a couple weeks ago I bought Cooper a car booster seat. Haha, I know it sounds funny. But he isn't big enough to see out the window when we're in the car. And then he starts to whine and cry and tries to get on my lap all because he wants to see what the heck is going on outside!
So I bought 2 seats. I wanted to try them both out. Well I like the first one I bought the best. Its bigger and seems more bulky but it was the best choice. It has an inflatable bottom and is very sturdy. Which is what I wanted. Cooper went with me to Bobby's today and got to ride in and ofcourse I took some pictures:
I even installed it myself! :) It wasn't too hard.
But I think he really likes it because he can see everything that is going on. And its big enough that he can lay down or sit up.
Happy Anniversary Bobby! Two years together and its been awesome!!!!! I love you!
First of all... Bobby's Aunt Jeanette has been in Michigan since Thursday and she is leaving for Las Vegas tomorrow afternoon. It has been really fun having her here. She is an awesome person, and so fun to be around. Saturday night Bobby and I hung out with her,(so did Reyna for a little bit.) We made a steak dinner with the works! We also had a huge salad and big baked potatoes. It was sooo good. None of us finished our steaks, they were that big! And then we watched Night at the Museum. What a FUNNY movie! I love it! And want to own it!
Here's some pictures of Jeanette with the Baby....( and with Les.)
On Sunday, we all took a trip out to Leslie's... even her Uncle David made it out for the day. We hung out and just took it easy. Jade cooked the Turkey that he shot a week ago. Wild turkey taste a heck of a lot different then a store bought one! That's for sure! 
WE ATE THAT!!!!
hahhaha!
And today I had my final exam in Anatomy class. WoooHOOO!! I was ready for that to be done! Afterwards, Bobby, Leslie, Rey, Jeanette, Lisa and I went to AppleBee's for a late lunch. It was soo good. We even all shared a chocolate meltdown for desert! YUM-O! In between my exam and lunch I ran a couple errands and got a couple more items for scrap booking. I'm really getting into it. So now that classes are finishing up and I'll have more time I am really going to become a scrapbook freak! :)
...right before grey's. Today I took my lab exam and got a 40/50 and my nutrition exam and got an 80%. Not the best grades, but I am MORE then happy they are over with.
Afterwards, I spend the day at Bobby and his Aunt Jeanette arrived from Florida today. Its so great to see her. Leslie and the baby were at the house to. I was a nice relaxing night. I even took a few pictures...more to come later.
This baby is loved so much! And I think that her Nana loves her the most. Lisa is just so excited to have a grandbaby, and it shows. She could just eat her up and keep her around forever!! Its so sweet!

This is Lucy, the Feister's kitty. She was sunbathing on the sofa table. (Les, I will email you these, there's like 3 pictures!)
I don't know why but I hadn't made time to call my doctor to get in to see her for my headaches. Maybe I was thinking that they would go away on their own. But I guess I had been putting it off. But last night was the breaking point. I had such a horrible night. My head just throbbed and it only hurt on the left side. I was up most if the night. Then around 4 AM I decided to try some icy hot on my forehead and neck, and I was finally able to fall asleep. So I might have gotten 5 hours of sleep last night. My head just hurt so bad that I could NOT sleep. It still hurts today. It been an ongoing headache and motrin and tylenol aren't even touching it. And I have found the excedrin makes me sick to my stomach. So this morning I called the doctor and made an appointment for Monday. Hopefully I can make it through this week with finals and everything. This week is going to be a tough one. Wish me Luck!
