About Me

Welcome to our blog!! This is a blog about our life, mostly from Jennifer's perspective. We were married in July 2007 at the Wynn Resort in Las Vegas and then sealed together for eternity in the Albuquerque New Mexico Temple in June 2009. We welcomed Ms. Ellie Sophia into our lives on February 9, 2010 and she is absolutely the light of our lives. Then we added Silas Ian on January 4, 2013 and his smile just brightens our days. We live in Rio Rancho, New Mexico where Justin works as a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner and I pursue my PhD in Nursing while being a stay at home mom! Life is so chaotic but we really couldn't ask for a more perfect life!

Back to reality -- sort of...

I have officially gone back to work full time --- Fun times fun times -- however the deal I made was that I would do ten assessments (I am a therapist and I work at a counseling agency in Albuquerque--so I assess all the new kids to see what programs they qualify for) a week for a pretty penny. When I was doing this contract I was essentially doing 10 assessment per week anyways, but when someone didn't show up I didn't get paid....now I get paid no matter what! I essentially agreed to do the 10 assessments per week with the contract schedule -- not bad not bad!!! Justin also started full time this week at CNM doing outpatient counseling.



Wednesday night we went with Chris and Celina to the Albuquerque "premier" of
House Bunny. Chris won tickets in some contest so we got to go for free (even better!). This movie was hilarious...I guess if you are into that sort of movie....which I am. Anna Farris was SOOOO funny, and we all just spent the whole time laughing our heads off. Since it was the "premier" they had security inspecting purses/bags and they were wanding people. Yes - wanding -- there was this girl in front of us that was getting wanded and the man with the wand said "Spread 'em" and we were all in shock, and a little apprehensive for our wanding experience. However no one demanded anything of me....I was slightly happy and slightly offended! Oh well, maybe the next wander will want me......

Absent

Boy these last few weeks have been hectic soooo my blogging has gone by the wayside, but I felt as if I needed to update this blog a little. So here's a picture (and a few word) montage of what we've been up to in the past few weeks!

Went to Fort Sumner (spent some time with our families)
Finding out I have keratoconus (as seen in this diagram below -- it is where the cornea is "Cone" shaped versus round over the pupil)

Filling out applications
Watching the Olympics

Finishing Summer School!!!!!! (and passing - even better!)



Yup that pretty much sums up our last two weeks --- of course there was work in the mix, but that's hardly worth mentioning. Since we are done with school (For now) I'm going back to work FULL TIME (Yikes-a-bee), we'll see how that goes :)
