puppy

So Steven and I went running(i walked) and this dog started to follow me. No matter where I went or how fast I went, he was there right under my feet. Steven and I then went to the nearest house, knowing that they had dogs, and asked them if he was theirs. The guy said nope, so we proceeded home. He followed. So now we have a dog at our back door. Tomorrow morning i'm going to take him to the local animal hospital. I just hope he gets taken care of and not forgotten. We named him SIRS b/c we kept saying "come on sir" :) I'm already attached.

Today I started school. After being out of school for 3 years, i'm now back.

Today did not start off real well. As I was about to leave I thought that I would check my school email. Much to my dismay, there was one from my teacher. She wanted us to print off the syllabus, sign it and bring it to class. Well i thought ok, no problem. I go thru the steps to print it off and WHAT!?!???!! My computer says the program does not exist. OH MY GOSH i'm going to be late on the first day of school. That's a good first impression for ya. I keep trying with no luck, so i head on to school. I was sooooo mad. So I get there and about 5 other people hadnt printed it off either so i was safe.
The lecture is pretty boring but it's going to goes real fast. The lab however was a different story. I ended up working with a girl that (poor thing) knew NOTHING about the human body. We were given a body cavity to take all the parts out and identify them. The funny part comes when she goes to put the thing back together. BTW, we had a female. She ends up putting the uterus, rectum and urethra all upside down. Then she put the heart in upside down and when i tried to correct her she said "I know how to do it". So I stepped back and watched in amazement. She had know idea of what went where. I think at one point she called the liver the lung. These people are the future nurses of America. LOL

GOD HELP US ALL!!!

Happy Mother's Day!!!

I just wanted to say that I have the GREATEST Mother in the world!!!

I LOVE YOU!!!!!

Mr. Darcy....

I'm just sitting here watching pride and prejudice and wondering if I was born in the wrong century. I wish that we all still talked that way. So eloquent. It would also be neat if we still bowed to each other. Maybe its just the way they use the lighting in every shot that is just sooooo picturesque. However you want to look at it, it would have been really cool to live in that time period. Thanks Lauren for getting me hooked. :) And now a parting line....

surely you must know that it was all for you....you have bewitched me body and soul and i love, i love, and i love you and i never wish to be parted from you this day forward--Mr. Darcy

when do you want to call you Mrs Darcy?--Mr. Darcy

only when you are completely and perfectly and incandescently in love--Elizabeth Bennet

How are you this evening....Mrs. Darcy(kiss), Mrs. Darcy(kiss), Mrs. Darcy(kiss)--Mr. Darcy

Babies and fishing

This past week, steven and I went to Arkansas to see our new nephew. He is completely adorable. He was 7 lbs 7oz and 21 inches long of pure cuteness. We left Wednesday and got there early Thursday morning. Thursday, we went over to my brother and sister in laws house to see Landon. Friday, we spent most of the day hanging out with Landon and other friends of stevens. Saturday, Stevens dad took steven and me fishing. I didnt catch anything however i did have fun (even though i get scared...;) lol) Sunday, steven and I went to his old church in the morning and then the church that his dad preaches at at night. Monday we spent about 45 minutes with Lil Landon and then headed home. Needless to say, it was a whirl wind of a trip but i wouldnt trade it for the world to get to meet and get to know my nephew. Once again, he was sooooo adorable.

I'm an AUNT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pictures and particulars to come soon.........

ugh....

Yesterday, Steven and I decided to go hiking. We drove up to Caesars head and picked three trails and set out for a fun day of leisurely hiking. We started out on the "purple" trail which was fun and easy. Next was the "blue" trail which was easy and connected to the orange trail. The orange trail was a little harder in that you had to cross over streams and dodge some things. Other than that it was really fun. Then we came to a fork in the trail where we had to chose to turn around and do the orange trail again OR do the "pink" trail. We chose the "pink" trail because the first hundred yards were level and we thought it looked easy. Looks can be deceiving. We ended up going STRAIGHT UP the mountain. No exaggeration. It was one of the hardest things I have ever done. To make matters worse, the sun is going down and we have to be out of the park by 7:30. I'm freaking out and praying to Jesus for him to shorten the trail because I cant breathe and my heart is beating out of my chest.
We finally make it out of the "pink" trail and come to the "orange" trail. However, when we look on the sign to see which way we should go, there is no map....SERIOUSLY. You've got to be kidding me. By this time it is about 7:15. So we are at this fork in the trail and we just chose. We get about 200 yards down this trail and we run into these two ladies (praise God...people). We tell them that we are lost and they say "oh the exit is that just that a way" Well Duh.

Moral of the story: Dont climb the pink trail!!!!!!!!!!!!!
