NEW JOB

I now have a new job! I am going to work full-time at Bridgerland Applied Technology College. I will be working with first year nursing students. My profession is great. I get to work 4 days a week, no weekends , no holidays. I will teach one class, do 2 days of clinicals and educate the students on nursing skills 2 days a week in the lab.

I am more excited than ever. This is what I went to school for, but I never imagined it would happen so quickly. My new job has amazing benefits and a retirement plan. I LOVE educating students. It is my all-time favorite. I have such a desire for nursing and I hope to pass it on to the students. I accepted the job last Monday. It is all coming together quickly, but I couldn't be happier. I am sure it will be a huge learning curve, but I am excited to tackle this new task.

I am sad to be leaving Logan Regional ICU full time, but will stay working one day a week to keep my skills up to date. I want to make sure I can practice what I preach! :)

I sure love all my co-workers at both places. I am so nervous but excited to begin this new journey in life!

Wish me luck!

An Auto accident

June eleventh was a horrible day.

I was working, Eric and Kaidance were working in the yard. They had gone to Logan to get some trees and plants to put in the yard. Anthony (our nephew) was helping them. On the way home from Logan they were in an accident.

The accident occurred in Smithfield. A police car flipped a U-turn right in front of Eric. Eric was going north and the police car was going south. The police car saw someone in head of Eric that was speeding, so he hurried and flipped around to get them, not seeing the Yukon coming. Eric had about 3 seconds to react, no blinker, no lights, no warning. He tried to slam on the brakes, but there wasn't enough time. Eric hit into the passenger side of the car. We blessed that it wasn't the driver side, or the police officer may not be here. Eric, Anthony and Kaidance were all in seat-belts (car seat), but were taken to the ER to be looked over. Everyone was really shook up, but nobody had life-threatening injuries. Kaidance had a concussion, and let me tell you it was a week from Hell. We even took her back into the ER the next day because she was throwing up so often. Anthony injured his foot and Eric hurt his hands. As far as I know the police officer had some facial damage and leg damage.

Really, it was a nightmare come true when I received that call when I was at work. I was told my family was okay and breathing, but I had to witness it for myself. I hope that day never comes again!

All in all, everyone was very lucky nobody was hurt worse. The Yukon and the police car are totaled.

Thanks to our wonderful support system for helping us through the last few weeks. We have been counting our blessings and realizing that our lives our so precious. We have a wonderful family and amazing friends. Everyone has been so kind to us. Thanks for thinking about us.

Furthermore, we are looking for a new vehicle. What do you suggest? We want an SUV, realizing how the accident could have been much worse if they were in a little car. WE are thinking about getting a GMC Acadia, Denali, in Black. Let me know what you think!

Big Changes!

Going down the big slide!

We have had Sunday and Monday off together as a family! It has been so nice to spend some time together. I love my family and sometimes I wonder how I got so lucky, because I am surrounded by such wonderful people. I guess I have to work extra hard to attempt to be like them. What a great example they are to me!

Kaidance is getting so big. We have been trying to get outside as much as possible, but the rain is not being nice to us. I can't wait for a warm day! (and I know Kaidance feels the same!)

Lately, little Rooie girl loves to throw the ball to the dogs. It is fun to see them run after it, and she just giggles.

Also, Ashlee and I had a little situation the other night. We got Kaidance out of the tub, and then locked the bathroom door upstairs. We had Kaidance out of the bathroom, but we locked ourselves out. I am totally OCD and the bathroom wasn't cleaned up from her bath. So we spend about an hour and a half attempting to get into the bathroom. Lucky for us, we found a key and got in. Just so you know, Kaidance was watching the whole time, and the picture was the next day. She kept trying to open the doors with the end of a hanger! HAHA! Funny how much she understands!
