Timmy and I are so glad that we are out for the summer, just two more semesters left and we are done. I am proud of our grades as well we are both doing really well, if I don't say so myself. April 24 my nursing class got together and had a BBQ at Jenn's It was really fun and it was great to not have to worry about homework or studying. We all received a gift card to subway for 32 bucks and our LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse) certificate. School was really difficult this semester I didn't quite think I was going to make it. Timmy however was really great as he always is at calming my on going anxiety and making me feel so much better at school.
On April 28 Timmy and I had our first Summer adventure, Him mike and I got together and went down the virgin river in Mike's canoe. This was really fun, we started at about 6:30 at the Washington bridge and started on our journey. The best part about the trip was the sweet guava nectar and of course our little mis hap with flipping the canoe. Timmy put a life jacket under his butt to make things a little more comfortable, of course this was a brilliant idea and had to try it myself. While I was leaning over to put this comfortable cushion under me Mike was also leaning to steer himself away from a tree. Our canoe filled with water while all of our belongings went floating down the river.
A few day ago on Saturday Timmy and I babysat Bonnie's kids. Timmy brought over the blow up screen from his work and we watched the motor cross on it. We all had a really great time, the kids especially. My favorite part about babysitting was spending time with the kids. Timmy and I are always busy whether we are at school, working or doing the many other things in our lives; we don't really get to see the nieces and nephews very often. While Timmy was setting up all the equipment to watch the races on the kids were helping me make homemade chocolate cookies, it was fun having them help. One of the funniest things about this night was Ryan, everyone had fallen asleep and there he was just rambling about all sorts of made up stories to keep himself awake. I told him he needed to stop talking now and that I knew a way he would fall asleep. I started tickling his face and he said "I don't like that it makes me hot," haha that was a lie...2 min later asleep.
So far my summer has been just about everything I have wanted it to be, lots of time in the sun and lots of things to do (including working 3 12 hour shifts a week, being on call 2 a week, and trying to accomplish 175 hours of service for americorps
