Happy Anniversary!


Happy Anniversary to my amazing husband. I can't believe it has already been two years. Time just goes by so fast. My sweet husband suprised me with this sweet gift of a dozen white roses and a basket of goodies that included the newest season of Grey's Anatomy. Oh I am so excited! Thanks honey for always thinking of me and for being so sweet.

Graduation 2009

 

It finally happened! Graduation has come and gone, and I am relieved. I had a great time, and appreciated all the love and support from my family. It was especially great because I was able to graduate with my sister Amy. We have spent the last two years together pushing each other and encouraging each other to get through to the end. Well we did it! Thanks Amy for being the best. I am also grateful to my sister Tiffany who drove her family up from Colorado to help in celebrating this huge accomplishment. She has been a great support to me (She is also a nurse and knows exactly what we had to go through to get to this point). My whole family was great to come and support, especially my Husband who I think is the most relieved that I am finished with school. He has been my rock throughout the whole program and has been so so supportive. Thanks honey for being the best!

In need of HELP

Hey Everyone, I love to blog but I am not very good at it. I keep searching for ways to make my blog cuter and more fun but I guess I am a little slow...if you have any pointers for me, that'd be great!! For instance like when adding pictures, how do people add more than one together into a collage? How do they make comments about certain pictures when you add the pictures you can't tell which picture is which...does any of this make sense...

The count down is over!

Yay, I am so so excited to be done with school. It has been such a hard and grueling experience but it will be totally worth it when I pass my NCLEX and get a nursing job! I am so grateful for my wonderful husband who has stuck by my side throughout this whole experience and helped me to achieve my goal of becoming a nurse. He truely is the best husband ever and has put up with so much. Thanks to everyone for all of your support! Graduation here I come!

Our sweet new ride!

We wish!! Tiffany and Chris decked us out in all this awesome gear and let us take out their motorcycle. It was way fun, and I must say that we look pretty awesome. It was great except that we left at sunset and by the time that we got back to the house I was freezing! We built a nice fire after that!

CERT Training!

Me and some fellow students spent two weekends getting CERT certified. We spent 15 hours one day and 5 hours the next week, learning about what we need to do to be prepared in case of a disaster! Oh my goodness it was the most boring two days of my life! Everything that we were taught went against what we have been taught in nursing school. We got certified for community/leadership points...that's the only reason we were there! Arent we cute in all our gear?!

Reba, Stephany, Me and Amy

My Best Bud Fred

Fred is a patient of mine who I have been taking care of since last September! He has been the best and most fun of all of my patients. I am so sad that I wont be taking care of him anymore. I am starting a new semester and my schedule is so chaotic. I just wanted Fred and his family to know how much I loved being apart of their family and I appreciate them taking care of me...Even if it was just to fatten me up!! lol (Fred would give me large candy bars and treats every day)They are such a loving family and I am so happy I got to know them. Fred is such a wonderful guy and has the best humor! I'll truly miss you guys and hope to see you soon!

Dedication for Martha

Just recently our most favorite and loved Nursing Instructor left Provo College. We are so sad that she wont be our teacher anymore and we just want her to know how much we love and appreciate all that she did for us. Amy and I made her this blanket in appreciation of all her hard work and dedication to helping us through this nursing program. The material we used is so cute and just worked perfectly with nursing and teaching related prints. Here is to you Martha! The best and most loved Nursing Instructor we have ever had!


Cutest new baby blankets!

Here's my newest projects! I don't know what it is, but I am just obsessed with making baby blankets. I don't know if you can tell but the little edges are frayed and it makes them look so cute! I think these blankets have been the funnest so far. They only took about a day for me to sew each one. Yay!

I thought it would be fun to share this story. Chad and I were just hangingout in our room and we heard lucky howling...not 5 seconds later we here the ambulance sirens going off! Lucky was howling with the sirens! Now every time we here any sirens we go to the window to listen and sure enough lucky is howling along! He's so cute.

Mom's Birthday

It was my mom's birthday on April 1st. Here we are celebrating it with homemade Cafe Rio salads. It was delicous! Just wanting to wish you a happy birthday mom and tell you you're the best ever!

Just chillin after dinner




This is Matt and his wife Wendy at his graduation! Congrats to him, we are all so proud of him. He graduated from ITTech with his Bachelors! We thought it would be great to plan kind of a Hawaiian theme for him and we made him a bunch of leis! Oh and he was valedictorian for his class!



After Matt's graduation we all went back to our parents and orderd Pizza. We gave him some little gifts that we had made for him. A Hawaiian blanket and a Hawaiian themed picture frame for him to put his diploma in.



Here are some fun photos that I found on this memory cartridge. We took these this last Fall/Winter with our puppy lucky. Isn't he so cute?! Yeah it's not an easy task trying to get a dog to hold still long enought to take a picture.



Oh I just got really scare. I left my camera at home when I went over to mom's and so I used her camera while I was there to take pictures. Well I took mom's memory card to bring home to upload some pictures and when I went to take it out of my pant pocket...It was gone! Oh I felt really sick. That is until Chad found it behind our chest of drawers. Apparently if fell back there when I tossed my pants on top. Thanks honey!

Baby blankets

This is my new obsession, I am loving making blankets! Baby blankets are my specialty lately. It's been really hard because I am still in school and I should be studying but all I want to do is sew! This jean blanket is my favorite so far. It turned out so cute because of my mom. She just has the best ideas ever! I guess I just need to start having kids so I can put these blankets to good use.

This is my baby girl blanket! I just love the material that we used.

This is my baby boy blanket, It's so cute!

My sweet husband

My husband is the best ever! He made me this cabinet and I love it so much. He is so good at making things. I'll have to post a picture of the book case he made me as well. Anyway I saw one of these and I just wanted one so bad, so here is my Valentines/B-day present!


Cute Babies

Here are the newest editions to the Anderson Family! They are so stinkin cute. Elora is almost seven months and Easton is six months. Whenever we have anyone expecting they seem to come in pairs! We are so excited to have these little ones as a part of our family, they are just so sweet and fun!
