A day at Spanish oaks reservoir
This was the beginning of June 10'. I remember it was the 1st day we went to do a real summer activity. We went with Laura and Kortland and some of Korts cousins. I LOVE this little treasure of a spot. Its in spanish fork, one side is for fishing and one side is sandy beach for kids and families to play and its FREE. I remember it felt so good to bask in the sun for the 1st time of the year. I got so many cute photos of the kids!

Fish, crew & such
OK so I have a ton of catching up to do on photos starting from about a year ago. It feels good to have the time now to sit down and blog. PS last post when I said I was having a really hard day it wasn't just because of feeling lonely out here. It was a couple things that were building on each other then I had a bit of a breakdown, last couple days have been much better :)
This was last May. I opened the door to see this on the porch one day.
Took off the lid to see this, kinda scared the crap out of me because I wasn't expecting it.. haha
Beef Stew was pretty interested..
Then I cooked it up for dinner
Mmmm.. Albino trout w/ potatoes and salad.
Jared and Crew LOVE to go fishing, usually at either Spanish Oaks Reservour, AF Canyon or Payson Lakes. I just thought it was so cool that Jared went out and caught fish and then we had it for supper, ya know like in the old days :)
Just my Crewser chowing some "phoney" or Bony Acai we got a case of from Jareds Uncle David, he LOVED that stuff.
Just my babe at the SEMA car show, boy loves him some Ferrari
Bahaha Its normal to wear a winter hat in the summer right
the smudge on some of these is from letting Crew play with my camera, dirty fingers on the lens :)

Its been forever!
Ok I have not blogged since last Halloween, 6 1/2 months. But for good reason I'm sure most you ( like the 10 of you tops that follow my blog) know I have been in aesthetic school for the last 8 months full time and I just graduated a little over a week ago! I completed the 1200 hours, passed my state tests and as soon as I get my license in hand I will officially be a licensed master aesthetician! It's a big accomplishment for me and I'm really proud I stuck to my guns and finished it.
On another note jared and I and crew (and beefstew) are in Colorado for the summer for another pest control sales season. We just got out here yesterday. We are in a apartment in littleton just outside of Denver. If it sounds familiar this is where the columbine shooting was. It's been a couple years since we have gone away for the summer and done this. I have been saying to myself all day, I can't believe we are doing this again!! Ps I am blogging from my phone which is interesting and I'm thinkin I don't like it. I just don't have any internet other then on here right now. It's feels so weird to be out here, and today has been kinda hard. Well really hard, I'm just all by myself pretty much with my crewser and my dog, jared just works 24/7. It's just a lonely feeling not knowing anyone in a brand new city I've never been to. It's quite the challenge keeping a 3 year old entertained as well, all without tv :) I'm sure its good for the both of us to have to figure out how to cope without numbing ourselves by television. Today we took beef on a hour walk, played at the playground, went grocery shopping for like 3 hours, then pretended we were talking rocks under the bed covers, read books and made up songs about toilets and such.
Um next update it that I am 22 1/2 weeks pregnant with another baby boy! I'm due Sept 15th, so ill come home by mid Aug in case I were to go into labor early. I'm going to be doing a water birth with a midwife at a birthing center in orem called better birth. I'm excited about it but nervous to do it natural again. I think I forgot how painful it was the 1st time, but the water is supposed to make it a lot easier so I guess I'm banking on that. I'm sure I could write a lot more but my eyes are kinda buggin from staring at my little phone screen. I've missed blogging and I miss all you guys. I'm sorry I didn't even tell a lot of my friends we were leaving, I was just in my own little world with school for a while there and I was going 10-12 hours a day the last month or so to make sure I finished before Colorado and then we pretty much just came straight out here. I'll blog again soon :)

Happy Halloween 2010 :)
Little man is pretty into pirates lately, so when Halloween rolled around it was pretty natural it was the only thing he wanted to be. Jared found the costume, thanx KSL. SIde note: I got those pumpkins behind him at Buy Low for $1.39 for BOITH! Can't beat 5 cents a pound, I LOVE deals!
Every pirate's got to do their business before trick or treating
Waiting for the goods
Some porch's were decorated so flipping cute
These people took their kids around in a golf cart.. genius!
Trunk or treat
Crew is kind of obsessed with "uncle" Deans dirt bikes!
We had a great Halloween and I had a blast going around trick or treating with my Soldier, I'm SO lucky to be this little guys mom!!!

Much needed update
Now that I have a functioning keyboard I can now write a little blog a log. I am really behind on photos, lots of summer stuff but I will slowly get them up and lots has changed in my life since I last blogged, which most of my faithful blog followers already know about but for journaling sake... I finally did what I have been thinking about and wanting to do for years. I am in aesthetics school full time right now at Acaydia in Provo. I started on Sept 7th and I am there Mon-Fri 8:30-5. 1200 hours is required to graduate, so with going full time I will graduate in May, and when I pass the state board I will be a licensed master aesthetician.
I got to thinking very seriously about doing this a few months ago when my 10 year high school reunion was approaching and it got me to thinking "What have I done with the last 10 years of my life?" I literally laid in bed all night one night thinking about exactly what I have done since I graduated high school, putting together a time line in my head "Worked as a lifeguard at 7-peaks and danced at Center Stage-summer of 2000, started hair school oct 00', Jan 01' decided I did not like doing hair, quit and started working as a hostess at Red Lobster, May 01' quit Red Lobster and started working at convergys full time answering inbound calls, Aug 01' married Jared and bought our condo in Springville, Nov 01' started working at Sundance... and on and on. I have done a lot over the last 10 years that I am proud of but as far as school went, well I never finished anything. I went to UVSC for 2 years taking general classes and lots of dance classes but I really didn't know what I wanted to do. None of the degrees really interested me, I didn't have much direction and I lost motivation. I laid in bed that night thinking here I am 10 years after high school with no degree and no career. A bit of a depressing thought. "What if something happened to Jared and I needed to support my family? What would I do? Get a job waiting tables? Try to get my job back at the airport? How would I make money?
I have always been interested in skin care and thought I would love working in a spa environment. The idea of going to aesthetics school has been in the back of my head for maybe 5 years or so. But I would never pull the trigger. After that sleepless night and all those millions of thoughts shooting in and out of my brain I decided NOW IS THE TIME! literally If I don't do this now when will I? I want to have another baby in the next couple of years and waiting until after that would just make it that much harder, what am I waiting for?
It was been a really good change for me. On top of the practical aspect of wanting to obtain a way to make a living, the homemaker/mom/wife life was taking its toll on me. I'm nuts about my little family of course but I was starting to feel like I was losing my identity and I needed to do something for me, I needed to switch things up, I needed to have another aspect to my life. I think this is just the ticket. When I'm finished I want to get a job in a spa and work part time maybe 2 days a week. Also maybe set up a spa room in my home and take appointments for friends, family and neighbors here and there.
Jared has been very supportive of all of this and he watches Crew while I'm at school, he's such an awesome husband, I'm not quite sure how I got so lucky. On top of school I am teaching hip hop on Tues and Wed nights at Utah Academy dance studio in Orem. I've been wanting to have my own hip hop class/classes for awhile now since I started subbing hip hop at golds gym over a year ago. Ideally I wanted to teach at a gym but when this opportunity came up I wasn't about to turn it down. Its actually really rewarding to see the kids in my classes improve and enjoy dancing. Some of them when we started only a month and a half ago were very shy and unconfident and I already see their confidence levels going up and self esteem improving, its very cool. So I'm very busy, like crazy busy but I LOVE it. When I not at school or dance I'm spending time with Crew and Jared and my animals, cleaning, doing laundry, grocery shopping, cooking and in general trying to keep things at home in order.
So life is good right now, its very very good. I'm proud of what I am doing and I'm accomplishing some goals of mine! Its exciting!
P.S. If you want a spa service done ie.. facial, back facial, pedicure, waxing, chemical peel etc.. you can come to me at the Acaydia spa. I am allowed to give out a few discounts a month so let me know if you want to come in and I can prob get you a discount. In a couple weeks the main spa will be done being remodeled and its going to be POSH!
