Prepare yourself!!!
Ok…so I know that I have been away far too long…But here goes!!!
I am gonna try and catch you up on our crazy little lives over the next month, and trust me it will probably take that long!! We have had an exciting 2 years!!! Before we get to that, I wanna share something with you all that I am very excited about.
Ever since the elections this year I have felt a burning to get my family squared away and really, truly prepared for the hard times that are sure to come our way. I know that we are all very busy and that we don’t always have to time to do all the things that we want, but that is exactly why I got so excited about this opportunity!!
One of my great friends, Tiffany Daumueller, presented me with this opportunity and I am just DYING to share it with all of you guys!! It is the best BLACK FRIDAY deal you will find this year!!
She works for Shelf Reliance® and sells Thrive™ foods and they have put out some awesome deals on their amazing food for black Friday this year! It is not just food either!! They have great deals on everything!! Some of this stuff is 50% off!! I know that I will be taking advantage of this awesome opportunity, and I hope that you will consider it for your family as well. Even if you are on a super tight budget, the have a wonderful program to work with you called the Q!! I think this food is awesome even for the most prepared food storage collector!! They have wonderful freeze dried fruits that will surely add something great to your food stores. I don’t know about you, but I don’t have the capabilities to freeze dry fruit…but I do know that I am gonna want some great fruit when times get tough!!
So here is the deal, I am “hosting” a black Friday event, so if you want something, now is the best time to get it! Lowest prices of the year! Just the fruit alone is totally worth it!! This event is an online event so you can do everything from the comfort of your own home, but you will get all the same benefits I will! Let me know if you want to join in or just give her my name!

Come What may and LOVE IT!!!!
However, today after I finished my final and realized that there is a really good possibility that i could not pass this stupid class!!! If I do not pass....I have to take it again!!!! This is just about the worst punishment I could think of!!! Especially since i would have to take it with 4 other very difficult classes!!!
Ok deep breath.....
Anyways, I am trying to relax after a whole month of being a crazy stressball!! So the house is coming along fine and we are starting to really love it!!
We are so close to our family reunion at the cabin and we couldn't be more excited!! We both need a break!! Terry works so hard all the time and he really deserves a break!!
We should be totally done with the house by the end of July and we couldn't be happier!! I will definitely post alot of pictures then!! I might have to break it up into a before post and an after post!! We have done so much!!!
We have alot to look forward to in this next month and a half and I cant wait to get going!!!

The most wonderful time of the year!!!
Yesterday I was especially thankful for SNOW!!! We have been very blessed this last week with a ton of moisture. I usually leave for work around 5:25 every morning. Yesterday, since we got so much snow and it was really icy, my boss called and told me not to come in until 9!! AMAZING!!! Me and terry were already dressed and eating breakfast so we just decided to stay up and watch a movie that we had been wanting to watch for a while. It was so nice to be able to just relax and have fun with my husband. We are so busy lately that we don't get to do that very much. It reminded me just how much fun we have together and how much we love each other. This season always makes me slow down and take a look at life.

Change of Plans!!!!
No I am not pregnant!!!!
This is just the HUGE change that the lord has prepared for me. I have wanted to be a physical therapist since I was a sophomore in High School. Up until 2 days ago I thought that this was my plan. Have you ever heard that saying, "If you want to make God laugh tell him your plans"? Well I think that this is quickly becoming my life's motto!!!
I found out 2 days ago that my PT program that I was supposed to start in January has just lost it's accreditation. BUMMER!!!! The next closest program that is fully accredited is in Albuquerque. So I had 2 options, I could wait around until Terry finished his degree and we can move back to ABQ (YAY!!!!), or I could find something else that I would like to do with my life and finally get back to work!!! Those who know me best know that the first option...really is not an option!!! I have been going crazy being out of school and stagnant for this long!!! I HATE IT!!! So I started looking around and I think I have found something that I could be really good at!!! It is right here in Las Cruces, which is great because then I do not have to commute. It is Diagnostic Sonography. There are so many applications in this field!!! (including the most obvious application of ultrasounds) And I cant start right away in January! I am so excited to get back into the swing of things!!! After I decided to buck up and take it like a man (well.....kinda), I decided that this might be a really good thing for me, and my hubby. It has opened up so many opportunities!!!
1. I get to be home A LOT more!!! I automatically knocked off 2 hours a day for my commute! And I could get a part-time job and help with the income.
2. I can still get both degrees!! I can finish this one here while terry finishes and when we move back to ABQ I can get my PT degree!! Especially since there are applications in PT for sonography!! I will be pulling double duty!!!
3. I have great earning potential!! It starts out at about 50k a year!! :)
4. There are no Birth defect complications!!! With the PT program, I had the possibility of some pretty bad birth defects because of some of the medicines and disinfectants that we would use. Even though we are not planning on any kiddos anytime soon....It is nice to know that if it does happen, they wont have 3 heads!!!!
I am slowly starting to accept and become excited about our new opportunities. I really think it will be a good change for the both of us!
Everything else is pretty calm for now!! The house is about to change very drastically!!! Our goal is to have everything painted, flooring replaced, and the deck built (and possibly the bed) by Terry's birthday. (November 1st) Hopefully we will hit that mark!! We are very excited and cant wait to be done!!!
