I did it- I got in!!

FINALLY- no more anticipating, no more playing the waiting game, no more being a nervous wreck- because I got accepted into the Radiology Program at Weber State!! I will start this Fall and go to class there a couple times a week and also do 24 clinical hours a week at The Logan Regional Hospital! We don't have to move. YaY! I have been working at this for a long time and now finally something has come of it! I'm very excited to get started. It feels good to know what I'm actually going to do with my life now.

Powerade for life!

So I told Zach that I found Powerade on sale for 25 cents a bottle and he went nuts! We were on powerade outings for 3 days because everywhere was sold out! He made me call Smiths, Smith's Market Place and both Walmarts everyday to see if they got anymore in stock. So finally after going from store to store each day and searching for different flavors we ended up with a total of 128 bottles of freaking Powerade!!! It is a little excessive if you ask me but Zach thinks it's just the greatest thing to have one for work everyday and not have to buy pop or anything forever. I guess our spare bedroom comes in good use to store our Powerade. . .The picture does make me thirsty though :)

Ready or not- here we come!

So.. Zach and I recently got a calling together at church. We are going to be teaching our first primary class on Sunday. What age might you ask? The cute little 5 year olds! I hope they are all well-behaved, polite, cute, loving munchkins! Am I asking too much? Guess we will find out soon! We are so excited to be able to teach together, I think it will be a blast! But they told us they don't like teachers to bring treats anymore unless it really ties into the lesson..WHAT?! I always got treats in primary growing up. Plus I thought that would give us some major brownie points with the kids! Zach thinks we should somehow tie treats into every lesson haha. I just hope we can keep them occupied for the whole hour!

Feb-March update!

Well I guess it's time to update since it has been a month now. . .

• First, it was my 20th birthday on Feb. 6th and that was really fun. I hung out with family and friends and of course went to dinner with my honey. My friend Kailani and I have the same birthday and our friend Saje's is the day after so we always get together for a good time! My friend Kassie's birthday was March 2nd and we all went to Texas Roadhouse-she had to saddle up and it was so funny! Even though I'm the only married one out of my close group of friends, we still hang out and have lots of fun-thanks girls!
  

• A while ago Zach and I drove to St. George to watch my brother play baseball. It was so warm and now Zach thinks he wants to move there someday--sorry, it's too far from home :) I could barely tolerate the 6 hour drive! Greg's girlyfriend came with my brother and parents and we all had a fun time watching baseball, eating out, watching movies, and shopping! We went to Vegas one night and drove down the strip..it was..interesting to say the least. We also got to visit Zach's cousins Jared, Tia, and their little girl Sophie- she is a doll! Then we also visited Matt, Amber, their cutie Dylan, and the new baby Simone-what a darling baby! It was so nice to see them since we hardly ever get to!

Heaven on earth right here-We seriously went there everyday! Yeah-we're fatties!

Goin to the baseball game

Greggy and Meggy

• Zach got a job at Walmart as a grocery stocker--but it was graveyard shift, from 10-6:30 in the morning! He only lasted 2 weeks haha and I'm so glad because I absolutely hated it! I hated going to bed by myself and hating him sleeping all day-it's like we were on 2 different planets! But I think he hated it more and didn't really like the idea of me being home alone every night. Thank goodness painting has picked up again and he will hopefully stay busy working for his brother now that it's getting warmer! Finally!
  
  
• Last but not least, we found out that Grandpa Phipps has some type of cancer. :( They are still running tests but he had to have surgery to remove a tumor in his chest. So far he is doing well, I hope he conquers it and gets better soon! On a happier note- we went to see him before he had his surgery and they had him on some pain meds so he was a little loopy...he was saying the craziest things and called me Matilda!? Not sure where that came from but it sure was cute!
  

Well that's all for this month haha-Thanks for reading!

Our little buddies

This last weekend Zach and I babysat our niece and nephew for 3 whole days...and it was a BLAST! They were so good and me and Zach had fun playing mommy and daddy. Zach and Riot were best buddies! They played in the snow together and Zach built a fort for him-Riot called it a fart. But unfortunatley 2 year old's don't stay interested for long and he didn't really appreciate it as much as Zach did ;) Tayvia was crawling like crazy and getting into everything in sight. We love these kids so much and Zach is the best Uncle in the world I'd have to say! They were probably ready to get the heck out of here by the time day 3 rolled around but right after they left me and Zach missed our little buddies! Thanks for trusting us with your children Karlie! :)She is so stinkin' cute-I can't get enough of her

This handsome boy is dang smart and has the funniest little personality-He knows how to make you laugh

A crappy picture of Riot in his fort!

I finally got the pictures from my dad of when we went to DISNEYLAND! Me, Zach, mom, dad, and Greg went around Christmas time and it was so much fun! It was a perfect time to go. You could just walk right on to almost all of the rides and it was nice jacket weather! Of course everyone there thought it was freezing-most people were in their winter coats, but it was warm to us! We stayed all dang day and night-really fun..but aching feet afterwards! Gregory had never been so it was funny to watch how excited he got haha! Here are some pics..little bit of an overload-sorry!

Dad was too scared to go- so took pictures instead!

Zacho, Pluto, and Greg

My boys

The Mom and Dad

We love Minnie!

And Mickey!

But I love him the most! This is my favorite pic-dang cute huh!

Bugs Life! 3D

We are some pretty cute bugs!

It did get rather chilly I'd have to say. . .

Last but not least-my favorite part of it all!! My magical, gorgeous, huge, Princess Castle! I've always wished I could live there... :)

Thanks for taking us Mom and Dad!

A little stressed..

Well... I don't have much to blog about lately-we are just a couple of poor, boring, newlyweds. Things kind of suck right now- Zach is my little stay at home husband for now. He doesn't have any work painting and has been trying to find a new job but so far has had no luck. It feels like he has applied everywhere and no one is hiring. I'm still working at USU research foundation but they only allow me to work 20 hours a week. We are still planning on going to Weber in the Fall. I applied to the radiology program so I hope I get accepted. Zach still wants to do athletic training and then physical therapy. We love our place and don't want to move so we might be making the commute to Ogden once school starts but we'll see. All we ever do is hang out with Karlie and Eric and the kiddies- we can't get enough of them. Next Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Zach and I will be babysitting them while Karlie and Eric go on their cruise-I'm excited! But I think 3 of the 9 days will be enough for us ;)
Well I have no pictures. . .blogs are boring to read without pictures I know- sorry! Not too much is going on right now- hopefully my next blog will say that Zach got a job!...keep your fingers crossed!
