Six months later.............

So I found this in my drafts and thought I would finally post it

Hello!! I almost forgot all about this blog. Our lives have been so crazy and busy lately, there hasn't been enough time for anything extra lately. We hardly have been able to see each other lately. This last semester Erin has had class monday through thursday until seven-thirty at night, two days in Idaho Falls and two days in Pocatelo. One city fifteen miles north of us and the other thirty miles south of us. She has also been working at the college as well for eighteen hours a week, in between her classes. She also had to go in to a classroom on fridays for a certain amount of hours, glad we had a friend to help her out there and had fun in her class with her too. So Erin had hardly any extra time. She did awesome this semester, straight A's, she likes to remind me how smart she is compared to me. It's true though.

I have been working like crazy. I've been at the same hospital still, but I also have been at the twenty-four hour clinic that the hospital owns because they needed someone to help out in the night shifts for them. So I have been trying to balance between day shifts and night shifts. It's been a little tough but I've gotten through it so far ok. I am still PRN but my averaged out weekly hours have been thirty-two hours a week, so I have been blessed imensly. I am very much looking forward to not having to balance day and night shifts. It makes it a little harder when the night shift is a twelve hour shift from eight to eight. But still enjoying being done with school and working.


We celebrated our four year aniversary this last week. That's crazy, it seems like it has been six months looking back at it. We have accomplished alot together, we are at the point that we know we can get through anything together. I'm excited for what else we'll go through together in the near future, life is so much better with her. Here are some things about her that I love:

She is shy at first when you are trying to get to know her, but once you get to know her, she is crazy fun.

She is very witty and can make up a song about anything, and I swear I have a new name every day, it never ceases to amaze me what she can come up with.

She is very practical and great with money. She would kill me if I ever got an expensive gift for her, she wants something economical and useful. Heck with the expensive, mushy gifts (YAY! Less chance for me to mess up on gift giving).

Love her sense of humor.

I love her love for the Gospel and her drive to strive to do whats right, which keeps me wanting to be the best I can be for her.

I'm so glad she's willing to be with me.

We had a great Holiday season. I've had to work a little bit around it, but it hasn't been too bad. We spent it here in Shelley with our families and have had a good time. We have played alot of Settlers of Catan lately, fun stuff. Here is a picture from one of our Christmas parties.



The ugly sweater party.  I actually opened that hat from a white elephant gift exchange, matched my hat perfectly.
