Here are some pictures of Nate and Brutus. Brutus is a bit stubborn and wouldn't hold still for the pictures. These were taken in early December 2007. You can see that the weather in AZ never changes. It is always beautiful!

Brutus is not cooperating
Here are some pictures of Nate and Brutus. Brutus is a bit stubborn and wouldn't hold still for the pictures. These were taken in early December 2007. You can see that the weather in AZ never changes. It is always beautiful!
Nursing School
I have been studying for this exam in nursing school for about 3 weeks now. If I could get in the excellent range of scores than I would be excluded from having to take the final. I actually got in the superior range with a score of 950 out of 1000. WOW!!! I am so excited. I am done for the semester so now I can relax. What a relief. I feel like my brain is about to explode. I can no longer tie my shoes but I can cardiovert a patient in acute atrial fibrillation to save their life!!!

Personal shopper
I was complaining that I didn't have anything to wear so Edgar decided to solve that problem for me. He went out and bought me a bunch of outfits. He did really well with the sizes and styles. I was so thrilled. He really was sent to me from Heaven. He is my angel and I love him. (who wouldn't!!!! )
A cold day in Phoenix
Wow! It is soooo cold here today. I got up to run at 6 am and it was 42 degrees out. That is the coldest that it has been this year. I decided to play in the yard with Brutus in the afternoon when it warmed up. He loves to play tug of war and fetch but he can be a little crazy sometimes. You may be wondering where Edgar is. He has decided that he doesn't like to be in pictures anymore. I will have to see if I can snap a few of him later. LOL

Quilts
These are some quilts that I have made in my craft room. The pink and green one was my first real quilt that I ever made. I got the fabric for the second one from an awesome quilt shop in Las Vegas called Quiltique. I absolutely love that store. I can't wait until our next trip out there so that I can get some more fabric and start on another one!!!
This is a picture of Monica and I at her baby shower a few weeks ago. Monica is one of my girlfriends in my nursing school. She is going to have her baby in January. I am so excited for her!!!!! I sewed her some homemade burp cloths. She loved them. I can't wait to have my own babies so I can start keeping some of the blankets and burp cloths that I make. LOL

Craft Room
Friday, October 19, 2007
Well,
Here are some recent photos that Nate took. We were just about to go to a design show in downtown phoenix. It was pretty neat to see all the great ideas there. We got a lot of inspiration for our house. We typically decorated in a traditional style but now we are thinking that we would like a change. I have pretty much "undecorated" the entire downstairs so that we can get a better look at the room to see what new things we might be able to do. Once we choose at least one piece of furniture, I think that it'll move along quickly....... It is just getting to that point. We are both really unsure of what we want. LOL

It's been a while
It has been quite a long time since I posted anything. I started up nursing school again, so needless to say, I don't have a lot of free time. The courses this semester are pretty rigorous so I spend most of my time studying. I also have a 12 hour rotation at the hospital on Saturday and that eats up a lot of our fun time. The weather out here has finally started to change. The days are around 85-88 degrees and the nights are getting down into the 50s. It is beautiful. This is why we love Arizona. Edgar and I will be going to NH for Christmas this year and we are looking forward to seeing everyone. We may even take a trip to Boston! It will be nice to see snow again. Hopefully they have some by that time in the season. Well, I will start to post more frequently now. Hopefully I can take some pictures and post them too!

Our baby, Brutus
Brutus is about 2.5 years old. He weighs about 125 lbs and is quite a goof. He is very spoiled by Edgar.

Edgar's New Toy

A Series of Unfortunate Events

This is a picture of Edgar. The day after St. Martin he got a rash all over his body. It was from a combination of the sun and the antibiotics that he was on. He was soooo itchy, that I took all our towels and wet them down. I made him lay down and cover up with the wet towels to help the itching. It was hilarious. He really was in a lot of pain though:( A doctor's visit and 200$ later, he was feeling much better ) LOL
ST MARTIN

Rum Distillery in San Juan



So, I finally got Edgar to take a "real" vacation. He really needed a break from work and we needed some alone time.
This is the ship that we took our cruise on. Currently it is the largest cruise ship in the world. It had an ice skating ring, movie theatre, surfing simulator, miniature golf course, casino etc etc etc. It holds about 7000 people. WOW. We absolutely loved it. We went to San Juan, St Martin, and Labadee.

Hi Everyone! This is our new blog. Everyone is doing it so we'd thought we'd join in too. These blogs are super easy to do and a great way to stay in touch with family and friends. We hope you all will do it too!
Here we are on 6/17/07 at Christen and John's wedding in Las Vegas. We just came back from our vacation in the Caribbean on Saturday and made the drive to LV that night. We were so tired. It was a great wedding! We are so glad we made it.
