Our Happily Ever After...

After a life time of searching, Jaime and I finally crossed paths. We met through mutual friends while he was on duty at the fire station, which just happened to be Abby's birthday. We were married a year later. June 12, 2004 was the beginning of our "Happily Ever After"!

Our son, Wyatt, was born on December 21, 2004 and he is such a blessing to our family! He looks just like his daddy! A little pistol during the day and a cuddler at night. He is always dressed up as a firefighter, just like daddy!

Our daughter, Abby, is a beautiful young lady! She is so smart and never seems to amaze us. She is very talented! She loves to sing and dance.

We moved to Guthrie in November 2007. Everyone has adjusted extremly well. We bought a house in August 2008 and completly remodeled it. It is on a queit dead-end street, in a wonderful neighborhood! It is close to the schools and not far from the fire station. It's just perfect! The only thing missing is the white picket fence :)

Jaime was promoted to Lieutenant with the Guthrie Fire Department in March 2007. He is doing a wonderful job. He started his own Lawn and Landscaping Company, Integrity Lawn Care, in January 2007. I am very pleased to say that it is doing great and we are growing every year!

With the business income, I am able to stay home and raise my babies! This is very exciting! No more wondering what will happen if one of the kids are sick and have to miss school or which parent will be able to take off work for field trips. Dinner is able to be prepared in a timely manner and the laundry is always caught up.. yea to clean socks! I help Jaime out with the paper work part of the business and I believe it has help us grow as a family. I just can't imagine a better job in the world!

Back 2 School

Well it's official.... I am a college student again! After some serious thinking and a lot of praying, I have decided to finish my degree in Radiology! I only had one class to finish, before I could apply for the program, or so I thought!

I went to talk with my old advisor today, and to enroll in my "last class", and she informed me that I will not only have to take that one last class, but I will also need to re-take another class due to the time restriction on my transcript! BUMMER!! So after talking with her in detail and enrolling for the fall semester, I decided to not only take these 2 classes, but also to re-take another class to try to better my scoring sheet.

The Radiology program admissions is based on a scoring sheet. They will take your highest grade for the prerequisites that are required, your compass scores, ACT scores and there are a few other areas that will give you a few "extra" points (i.e. if you have worked in a hospital for a number of years, have had experience taking x-rays or in the radiology field for a number of years, etc.) good thing I have had some experience in both taking and developing x-rays in the past, as well as working in the radiology department at Baptist Hospital. I still need to improve my scores as much as I can!! Last year there were only 12 slots to fill for the class, with 2 alternates chosen and there were over 70 applicants!!

It is kind of exciting the more I think about it. It will be good for me to get my head back in the books! ha ha
