Another Birthday--it's a busy March around our place
So this time it is Emma Leigh's birthday and--she is 8 years old!!! I can't believe she is eight! I don't feel old enough to have an 8 year old, I guess that's a good thing right?!
So she got to get out of school for lunch and we all headed to Mcdonald's by choice of the birthday girl. She took donuts for her class and G & G Spencer brought her gifts and she opened the ones from mom and dad on her birthday yesterday. We are having a family dinner/party on Sunday for her so she will get more stuff then, and she told me she is scared and hopes that Grandpa's don't remember to give her bday spanks cuz eight is a lot! She is growing up to be such a beautiful girl with legs that go on forever(runway here we come!)(and of course she's gorgeous, she looks just like me!)
In other news, I am kind of caught up with school-thus the posting on the blog! I am so excited about this whole idea-I actually feel like I have time to breath these days. It is an amazing feeling I have to tell you! So excited to get this semester over (39 days left!! Holy cow-didn't realize we were that close!!!! WOOOO HOOOOO!)with cuz that means I only have one more to go and then NCLEX and RN!!!! Can not wait for that day-it will be amazing!
Brad is still at the Huntsman and they are getting ever closer-if they can keep their subs(many have closed doors due to the poor economy). It may be interesting once this job is over cuz we aren't sure if they have another one for him--in the state anyway. So we will have to see, the end of this year may bring about major changes, a real possibility anyway.
The girls are enjoying school and can't wait for summer and warm weather-as can I. We are outside people and really don't care for the cold. Maycee learned to ride her bike without training wheels and she feels so proud! Emma gets to start achievement days at church and she is super excited about that. And Wyatt attempted to climb the tree the other day and loves to ride scooters and tricycles and he says a few words but doesn't find the need to talk yet on a regular basis(I am assuming it is a third child syndrome)
Anyway we are still keeping busy-as I am sure our lives will be for the next many number of years. Pictures will follow next time of birthdays and bikes and ect...
Till next time!

A little break and a birthday
So I am so excited for spring break this semester! It has been an extremely rough semester so far and I need a bit of a break. It has been nice not to have to go to work every weekend and be able to feel like I am not totally drowning under everything I have to do and no time to do it. I am half way done with the semester now and it is getting so close to being totally done that I am WAY excited!
In other news, Maycee turned 6! I can't believe that she is 6 years old already--time flies! We had a family dinner for her birthday and she took treats to her class and got to pick a place to go to lunch on her birthday and of course we ended up at McDonalds. She is growing up to be such a beautiful young lady and we love her lots.

Quick update...
So I quite working. I have been so overwhelmed with everything, mainly school, but house and kids too that it was just too much and something had to go. School is awesome but so extremely busy, 3-4 12+ hour days a week and then I still have to come home and study my little tushy off. Hopefully the health department doesn't condemn my house before the semester is over!
Everyone is doing good. Everyone is healthy. And if we can just make it another 72ish days we get a break for the summer before I begin my last and final semester!!! So excited!!!!!!!!

First week involved, needles and lots of blood
Ok so if you get woosy at the mention of blood, you may want to stop the reading now.
I did my first IV and blood draw yesterday in clinical and well it went ok I guess. I missed the vein of my very good friend going just to the side so my instructor slid it in for me and we were good to go! But I did awesome at the blood draw and was so excited that I got it that I forgot what I was doing and drew a lot, A LOT of blood. It's ok tho-the price of education(as a student nurse anyway). So my friend was the same way and we were taking pictures(i know nurses are a little odd)and so we both had very full vials of blood. Things are back to crazy around our house, dishes are still in the sink from last night, laundry is piled to the ceiling, ect, ect. But everyone is healthy and things are going good.
Some day it will all be back to normal...but till then...we love crazy!

Back to life
So I am not sure how I feel about all this real life stuff. I really really like not having a schedule to keep, children really need one. It's a love/hate thing I suppose. So anyway, we are back in the swing of things. The girls are off to school and I am preparing to start yet another semester(only 2 more to go!)
We had a fun New Years Eve at mom and dad Spencers with Trevor and JoDee and sweet Alyssa! We played minute to win it games and they were hilarious and fun...thanks guys for putting it together. It was nice to relax after a pretty rough day! The car that we borrowed from Bob and Diana decided to not run all of the sudden so Brad spent all day New Years Eve trying to figure out what was wrong and I think we finally figured it out, the fuel pump. So we ordered a new one, and I am driving put-put till it gets here(put-put, for those who aren't in the know, is the geo metro that my parents bought for Trevor in high school and it is indearingly called put-put, cuz that's all it can do sometimes!) I have an amazing family and don't know what I would do without them!!!
This new year is going to be amazing...I can just feel it!!
