Catching up...

    Sorry it has been so long since I have wrote anything on here. We have been pretty busy, I have been working quite a bit at the hospital, this last pay period I worked 69.5 hours, which really helps out. Casey is still looking for a job, a girl at work just told me of two places that are hiring so I will tell him about those today. We missed the deadline for the spring semester at Boise State, it was in October and we didn't know we were going to be in Idaho in October. So he may do the summer semester, he found out about his National guard stuff and he is in the 116th and is posted out of Moutain Home. It will take him about 1 1/2 to drive to drill every month, but in Arizona he was driving 3 hours so it isn't bad. They told him that he will be deployed in September, maybe earlier which is why he might do a summer semester, it depends on when he leaves and if he will need any special training before he leaves.


Thanksgiving was good for us, we had it with my family and we just ate and hung out. I worked that morning early but other than that we didn't do much. For Christmas we went to San Antonio, Texas to his aunts house. His whole dad's side of the family went, we spent six days ther, we went on Christmas day and came back on the 30th. We had a good time, we went to Seaworld, the San Antonio zoo, Six flags, and we went and saw Avatar in 3D. I got to meet a lot of his family that I hadn't met before, and we had a big Christmas dinner. The thing that sucked about our trip is that, someone busted our passanger side window in, and stole my purse the day before we left. They charged stuff to my credit cards, and they got my social security card because I had it with me cause my work needed a copy, they got my military ID my credit cards, my drivers license, and my grandma's wedding ring. (which I don't usually have but I wore it while mine was getting fixed and I put it in my purse so I wouldn't lose it when I got mine back, and I forgot to give it back to my mom the day before we left.) needless to say my family was not happy about that, and I felt so bad.  But I did make it through the airport without an ID, they asked me a ton of questions like what cars have I owned, the last 4 numbers of my parents phone number, their names, and stuff like that.


Casey and I have been married for 96 days and are doing fine, it is my birthday today and Casey took me out to dinner last night for my birthday we went to TGI Fridays (it's one of my favorite resturants) Then we came home and played games with the family and watched the ball drop, and then I opened my presents. I got some books, the New Moon sountrack, a beautiful necklace from my husband, and a movie. We went to bed at 1am and I got up at 420 am for work, so I am going home to take a nap when I'm all done here at work. Then I think my friend is taking us out tonight to dinner and a movie for my birthday. So this is turing out to be a pretty good birthday. Casey and I have had a lot of firsts these past couple of months, our first thanksgiving, christmas, my birthday, our first vacation/trip. It has all been fun and we can't wait to have some more firsts. Hope all is well with your families, and Have a Happy New Year!

Yea pictures...

Wedding, finally.....

So I know that you probably have been wondering if I have fallen off the face of the Earth, we'll I didn't we have just been busy. Well we got married on Sept 26th 2009, and it was a great day. I got my hair done early in the morning, and then we went and took pictures in Boise, came back and got married and then had a reception. It was all so beautiful, it was how I had imagined it. Then we spent one night in Boise and then moved to Arizona. We have been living the past two months in Mesa Arizona, I was working at a hospital in Chandler. But we are now back in Idaho, Casey's job fell through so we moved back, and are living with my parents for the moment, we have only been back in Idaho for a week. I am working at the hospital here on-call, and Casey is looking for a job, and he is trying to figure out all of his national guard stuff. That's about all that has been happening, Casey is wanting to go to school in the spring, so we are working on putting in his application to be accepted to BSU. But here are some pictures from our wedding. Hope you all enjoy them.I could only get one to load I'll try again later.

I'm alive!.....

I haven't wrote in awhile so here is a little back tracking of what has gone on in the past little while. I finally got married on Sept. 26th, it all went pretty good. When decorating we had a few little gliches but other than that everything went fine. It turned out just how I wanted it too, and we went and took pictures before the wedding and they turned out really good, I only have one to post today but I will have more later. Casey's family all got there, and it was nice to finally have our families meet each other.

We honeymooned on the way back, we did one night in Boise, one night in South Jordan Utah, two nights in Vegas, it was all okay I was sick most of the time. I felt so sorry for Casey, but we still had a good time.

I am now in Mesa, AZ I am finding my way around, I have applied for about 20 jobs and haven't heard anything back yet. It is warm here it was like in the 70's yesterday. Casey and I are going camping with a bunch of his friends this weekend, I haven't been camping in like years! So this should be fun. Hope all is well with all of you and your families! Love to all!

Closer and Closer....

So the wedding is 3 days away and I still have stuff to do, But I am getting excited! I sewed 5 of the 11 table runners today, and I still have chocolate dipped pretzels to do, and decorating on Friday, I need to get the oil changed on the cars, and the list goes on but I am having fun doing it. My parents just put new carpet in my sister's room. Tage's tube came unhooked one night and spilled all over and they had to replace the carpet, and they are pooring a cement slab by the back door, so when you step out its not one giant step. Shandi got my flowers done and they look gorgeous! I love them, I love the colors of them. I don't know how many people will really show up to the reception because there is a woman's conference broadcast that is that day, we thought we would be smart and have the wedding at 430 and the reception at 6pm before it because we thought it was at 7pm. But no there is a luncheon at 430. And then they changed the homecoming game to that night to, so I don't know how many people will be able to attend but that's okay as long as we get married I don't think it really matters. :) Everything else is going good, Tage had surgery to replace his feeding tube, they put a new one in and said he needs it for another year. Other than that not a ton going on, except the wedding stuff. Love to all!

Casey's Family Reunion

I don't have a ton of time to write but I just got this picture, it's from Casey's family reunion. I went to Colorado at the end of July to go to Casey's family reunion (his mom's side) his parents got sealed in the temple, I met a ton of his family, we went shopping down town in this little resort kind of town were the reunion was at, and I had a really good time.

Right to left- Me, Casey, His dad Dale, his mom Janet, his little sister Toni (who is 17) his little brother Todd (who is 19) his older sister Coree (who I don't know if she wants her age told but is 30) and then Coree's daughter Zoe who is 5.

September YAY!!

So I haven't kept this up to date lately, I've been to busy with work and stuff. I am busy with wedding details and trying to figure stuff out cause a lot of stuff has changed. Here is my list of crazy changes...
1.) I couldn't find bridesmaid skirts to save my life, I had a bought the shirts awhile ago but couldn't find skirts. I was looking for a medium color khaki skirt, that went a little below the knee. I think I probably bought 6 or so ( all at different times mind you) and had to take all of them back because they didn't fit one bridesmaid or the other. Well TaDa I found some yesterday, they aren't khaki they are brown but it works, and I ended up with only two bridesmaids instead of three so I took the extra shirts back and they paid for most of the skirt. Yay! So one thing down thanks goodness.

2.) I had a very nice lady in my ward that was going to make me the lovely cake that was in my last post but he husband ended up having a stroke (his is still is the hospital but is doing fine) so she's not doing it anymore which I totally didn't expect her to. But one of her friends said she would help me with my cake so I pick three different cakes out and I'm going to show her them, and were gonna make the easiest most simple of the three. So I am appreciative that she is willing to help.

3.) Casey's family has booked their tickets and hotel rooms, and everything went great with that.

4.) I got my dress hemmed and altered and she even altered a different dress I had for free.

5.) I had my bridal shower on the 22nd it was so much fun! We played some games and there were like 17 people there so it was a good turn out. Then the girls from work threw me a bachelorette party the same night as my bridal shower and that was so much fun too! My sister Shandi threw the bridal shower and Phoebe and Megan from work threw the bachelorette party.

Now I just have a few other things left for the wedding my last day of work is tomorrow for this rotation and then I have 7 days off and will be working on wedding stuff and packing stuff I'm not using. I need to make some table runners, and do the flower arrangements, and get some of the other flower stuff done. I need to go look at some decorations that I am borrowing from a friend to see if it is what I want to use. So not anything big but just stuff that needs to get done. Everything is gonna be fine though, it is officially September, and I will be married in 25 days! It's crazy, but I can't wait. I will hopefully write again soon, and maybe post some pictures of the bridal shower or something. Love to all!
