Best Surprise EVER!!

So...This last weekend has been one that I will never forget! It was a pretty normal weekend until Saturday rolled around! Me and Kyle were supposed to go camping with his family for Easter weekend but I had to work Saturday so we planning to go as soon as I got off. I was so excited to go..I hadn't been camping for a really long time. Well, Saturday turned out to be not so good weather and Kyle told me that his family was planning on coming home that night! Bummer! But then Kyle had this great idea that he would make it up to me by going to Salt Lake for dinner! I was completely content with that idea! I'll take P.F. Chang's any day!! So he came to my house and said that we needed to leave around 6:00 so we could make our reservations at 7:00! Okay I can do that!! So we were casually sitting at the table talking with my parents when all of a sudden my door bell rang! (Ding Dong) "That's our ride," Kyle said! WHAT!?!?!? I was so confused...I get my shoes on and go outside and there it is! A white limo! (Okay...What's going on!?) All I could think was that something was going to happen tonight and I had a good idea of what it was! :) But once we got into the limo Kyle acted so chill that I totally blew off the idea that something was going to happen tonight! I didn't want to get my hopes up! So we went to dinner and the food was AMAZING!! I love P.F. Chang's! Once we were stuffed we got the check and they brought us out or fortune cookies! The waitress said that it was Chinese tradition to take the one that was facing you! (I had never heard that before but I went with it)...I opened mine that said "There is something bright in your future." Kyle opened his that said "There is a life changing event just ahead." Okay, nothing new...I have heard those before so I didnt think anything of it! We left the restaurant and made our way home! Kyle had this great plan to tickle my back on the way home but the limo just didn't make that too comfortable for me! So I turned around and started talking about his Easter present (that I was so proud of by the way...it was nothing fancy but I was surprised at how creative I could be! haha) and I told him that I would give it to him that night since I wouldn't see him till later the next day! He said that he had an Easter present for me too but that he actually had it with him! I totally thought he was just going to be funny and grab some candy from the limo and give that to me! But he told me to close my eyes and put out my hand! Once I opened my eyes...He was down on his knee (yes..in the limo!!) and had this ring in his hand...WHAT!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Then he asked "Will you marry me?" Of course I said YES!!!!! I was so confused and shocked at the same time! I can't believe that I'm going to get married! Crazy but SO exciting!!!!! I had no idea that he had even talked to my dad or had even gotten a ring yet! He actually had this whole thing planned for about a month now! I was totally out of the loop on that one! But I can't wait until we are married! It will be so much fun! We are thinking of getting married either the end of July or first of August! That means I have a lot of planning to do and I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed but I have great family and friends that will help me and make it a day I will remember forever!! That had to be the BEST SURPRISE EVER!!! Thanks babe! I love you!

I CAN SEE THE END....FINALLY!!

It is almost coming to the end of my first year of nursing school and I couldn't be happier!! I know I still have a year left to complete but it seems like I'm headed on the downslope now..well..hopefully!! I had a huge test this weekend that I had to pass to continue my education in this program! Let me tell you...I have never been so nervous in my life!! I couldn't sleep the night before because all I could think about was if I didn't pass...could I take it again?! or would I just fail out of the program! :( I didn't want that so I studied the best that I could and hoped for the best!! My test was scheduled for 8:30 in the morning and I didn't leave the school until about 12:30....but.......I PASSED!!! (Barely, but I don't care...I PASSED!!) WOO HOO!!! I have never been so relieved...that means I can register to take my LPN boards and finally get on the ball to get a job that I can have when I graduate!!! I'm so excited and I can't believe that I have already completed a full year of nursing school!! But I'm most excited for the 3 month break I have starting May 1st...Summer and fun, here I come!!

Rascal Flatts Concert!!!!

On Thursday night my sweet boyfriend took me to the Rascal Flatts concert!! It was a BLAST!!! We went down to SLC early to eat dinner at the Olive Garden (It was DELICIOUS!) and then we walked over to the concert...I was so excited to have Kyle with me because he had never been to a single concert EVER!! He had a lot of fun!!! Anyway, I love going to concerts!! They are always a good time! With all the crazy people getting crunk and being able to sing as loud as you can because no one can hear you..it is always well worth it!! Speaking of people getting crunk, it seems like every concert I go to I always sit by people who are just WASTED!! There was a couple in front of us that were dancing all over the place and the guy was acting like he was at the Motley Crue concert!! He even pulled out his lighter during one of the songs! It was very entertaining! :) All-in-all it was a VERY fun night and the best Valentine's Day present ever!! Thanks babe!! :)








Jessica Simpson was the opener for Rascal Flatts and she did a good job and I actually liked a lot of her songs! She was a little weird when she did her little act between songs but it was a great concert!! :)

So...I never win anything..EVER!! We were standing in line to spin those wheels that the country stations have at every concert and there were about 10 people in front of us and they were not having any luck with winning, so once I got up there my hopes were pretty low and I just put a nice spin on the wheel, then......BOOM! I WON A SNOW SCRAPER!!! haha..pretty lame prize but I was still excited! Then it was Kyle's turn and he spun it pretty hard and BOOM!! HE WON A SHIRT!! We felt pretty lucky (too bad it wasn't back stage passes to the concert, that would be even better!!! Oh well, we'll take it!!)

My Puppy JACK

I wanted to show some pictures of my puppy Jack! He just barely got a haircut! I miss his big fluffy fur!! But he is still cute! Here is the before and after pictures!!

Let's get it started!!

I have decided that since I have this blog that I should probably start doing something with it!! :) I'm still pretty new to this but I'll just kind of give an update of what I have been doing for the past few months! I'm still going to school and working towards becoming a nurse! I definately can't wait until I can be done with school and just work full time, but its been a very good experience! I'm still dating my boyfriend Kyle and having fun spending time with him! We just got back from a trip to California! It was so much fun! We went to Knott's Berry Farm and I laughed the whole day watching Kyle on the roller coasters! (He is afraid of heights but the funniest ride was a wooden roller coaster because he was SO afraid it was going to break! It was hilarious!) We also spent some time shopping, walking around the city, and eating really good food! (Cheesecake Factory was my favorite!) Other than that I have just been spending a lot of time with my family and friends!! My good friend Terra just got married and it was so exciting seeing her go through that experience! She seems SO happy and I'm so happy for her!! Anyway...I will try and be better about my posts in the future and hopefully I can show everyone a little bit more about me and my life!! :)


Here are some pictures of California:

Christmas Time

I can't believe that it is almost December! But this is definately my favorite time of year! I love the holiday season and the feeling that it brings! Being with my family and making such great memories! It's great! I also love all of the fun activities to do during the winter season....skiing/snowmobiling...sitting by the fire on a cold day....shopping...looking at all of the Christmas lights...making cookies and candy as a family....getting excited for all the presents (Yes, I'm still a kid at heart!).....and of course giving to others, that is what Christmas is all about!!
