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!

Wow.....

.......my eyes tell me that I have not posted a blog in about a month!!

Things have been so hectic around here this past month and I am actually pretty surprised that we have survived. Justin and I have had SOOOOO much homework due in preparation for the end of the semester! The day before Thanksgiving I has consumed with writing a paper for my health policy class, and I had 20 marvelous pages done when I realized (at 9 pm) that there was an 8 page limit. Super.

We just got back from Tuscon where I went for a conference. We stayed at the Westin La Paloma Resort and all of the trip was free because the conference was for school. We headed to Phoenix the first day and did a little shopping (bought some more Sprinkles cupcakes!) and ate at our favorite Phoenix restaurants. The next 2 days were conference days, and then we headed home on Friday.

Justin has several final exams pending along with some lengthy homework assignments. This past week I had another major paper due (the exemplar papers were 30 and 60 pages long) which had me a wee bit stressed out. I have a statistics presentation due next Tuesday and then another major paper for my health policy class....then it is VACATION!!

Vacation means that we can celebrate our first Christmas together as our own little family, we get to go back to California (but this time for longer), and best of all --- sleep.

I am going to sign off because I have to go start/finish our Christmas cards -- which are completely pimp!!

Happy Holidays everyone......and a blessed New Year!
