In a nut shell...

Well its been a while. I have done a lot these past few months. A few months after my last post we moved into a new apartment. Its a much better location and much bigger! We do miss our view of the lake but like how much we saved on gas. I finished my MA program and graduated. Finished my externship and now I'm just looking for a job as a Medical Assistant. That's not any fun at all.

Me, Amber and Tarin on the last day of school!!

Those little kittens Joe found at work, we got super attached to them and now we have our five babies to great us every day when we come home. Sadly we still have 100% agreed on their names...Right now they are Mellow, Stripe, and Gotee. Mel was super calm as a little one and is still pretty calm compared to her sisters. Stripe is stripe because she has a stripe of white going across her nose. It was much more noticeable when she was little. And Gotee has a goatee. They started out as Mel, Brit and Jermaine from Flight of the Concords. Then we found out they where girls. So Mel stayed Mel but transformed into Mellow. But Joe doesn't like Gotee since its not a girls name. And he doesn't think Stripe is a real name. So lately I have been calling them Snap, Crackle, and Pop. We will see if that sticks.

This is Miss Mellow. She was soo tiny!!!

Me and Jill seem to do everything together....even if we don't mean too. We graduated at the same time! It was really fun to share it together since we where a year apart in school.

The day I got done with school we decided to celebrate with a trip to Vegas. It was awesome and we actually won some money!!

Five bucks I turned into 95 in less than five minutes

Me and Joseph on Fremont Street

On the way out of town we stopped to see the Pawn Stars, Pawn Shop. There was a line to get in the front door.


This past weekend we took a little weekend getaway to Park City Utah with Joe's family. It was awesome. We had an opportunity to stay at this awesome 3000sq condo with three stories, four bedrooms, six bathrooms, six tvs, a two car garage (that could fit two full size tucks back to back) a hot tub and a ton of snow. It was fun minus the drive back. Of course we decided to go the weekend of the biggest storm in 10+ years! There was at one point complete white out conditions and some sliding around on the freeway. Luckily there was no cars around. Well...that least no cars that we could see. We did get sideways at one point but Joe was calm (unlike me) and got us out of it. Him laughing and me crying. We saw two cars that had slid off the road. But once we passed them the roads where dry so we were wondering how they did that and or how long they had been there. We did see a semi-truck off the road too. But it looked like a truck slid into it and then it slid off. Not really sure what happened there but luckily it was on the other side of the freeway because traffic was backed up pretty far because of it.

Joe decided to make a snow angel after sitting the in the hot tub.

But before that he decided to first. sled down the hill

This was Saturday morning after we cleared off the hot tub cover and table

This was Sunday Morning....
