Laser Hair Reduction

I only have 8 more days of school! Woo hoo!! I will still be doing laser hair reduction through the school until I get all of my laser hours done, so if anyone has been wanting it, call me! By being a clinical study of mine, you would get a HUGE discount (ex: $210 for a 6 treatment package for underarm!). Email me for specific prices.

Look at this face!

Tim and Clover sitting in a tree...

Scott's brother Tim got married yesterday in Flagstaff, so we took a family trip up there for the festivities. Scott was a groomsman, and Macey and Heidi were flower girls. It was so cute to see them walking down the aisle throwing flower petals, they did such a good job and they loved the responsibility and being able to be a part of Uncle Tim's and Aunt Clover's wedding. It was a busy busy weekend, and if I had not had Scott's family there to help me with all the kids, Scott would have had to check me into a mental institution on our way back into town! Thank you a million times to everybody who helped us with the kids! It was also FREEZING in Flagstaff! It was snowing when we pulled into town, and it snowed for most of Friday night and got down to 25 degrees. It made me remember why I live in Phoenix. But the wedding was gorgeous, the bride was absolutely stunning, and it was so fun to see Scott's family and be able to hang out with them for the weekend. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get many pictures, as I was chasing toddlers around pretty much every second of the day, but hopefully I can get some of Scott's family to email me some (Jill? Jenae? Hint hint.) We are so happy for Tim and Clover, we love having Clover as a part of our family.

Another exciting endeavor!

I only have about 4-5 weeks of school left, just depending on if I can make myself get in a few extra hours a week. I can't believe that I am almost done! I have been thinking about what I want to do once I graduate, and I already have a couple of things lined up. Since I will be an aesthetician and laser certified, there are a ton of options for me. But in order to make myself even more marketable and open up even more windows of opportunity, I am going to get certified in permanent cosmetics in May, and I AM SO EXCITED!!! I had my lips done several years ago, and I have always thought that it would be fun to get certified. Scott and I were talking about it the other day, and he said, "Why don't you just do it?!" So, I did! The money that you can make from that is insane. You can charge up to $500 for each procedure (lip liner, full lips, eyeliner, or brows).

Also exciting, the garden is completely finished! We planted carrots, tomatoes, jalapenos, squash, bell pepper, beets, lettuce, onion, cilantro, watermelon, cantaloupe, and pomegranate. It is so fun to go out there every morning and see the progress that our garden is making.

Drive It Til The Wheels Fall Off

About a year ago Scott decided that it would be fun to buy an old Turbo-diesel Mercedes. I'm still not sure what he liked about those cars, but I have never liked it. I'm sure that it was fast in it's day, but it's days are long past. I have always hated driving it, but it was nice to not have a car payment on it. It had a brand new motor, so it drove well and the A/C worked. Scott said we would just "drive it til the wheels fell off". Well, I drove it until something fell off, but it wasn't the wheels. On Wednesday I was driving down the freeway on my way to school, going about 70 in the left lane, when all of a sudden I heard a really loud noise, followed by a horrible scraping sound. I looked in my rear view mirror and saw smoke and sparks flying out everywhere. So I got off at the next exit and pulled into a parking lot, got out of the car, and saw that the whole muffler and both tailpipes had broke loose and were just dragging on the ground! So I called Scott and he came and picked me up and took me to school. "Okay Scott, you had your fun, now I want something that I can drive without worrying if I am going to burst into flames!" I said. We had been talking about getting a new car for a couple of weeks, so this wasn't a horrible loss to me :). I'm just glad that the car didn't catch on fire and that I was able to get off the freeway right away. Can you imagine driving behind someone on the freeway and all of a sudden the bottom of their car falls off?! It was pretty comical, more so now then it was at the time. We kept going back and forth about what car we wanted to get, and I was getting pretty frustrated with Scott because he kept changing his mind. Little did I know that he already knew what he was going to get me, and he was just terrorizing me on purpose. When I pulled up to my house coming home from school last night, I was super surprised to see a shiny Jaguar in my driveway!! Scott was standing there too, just laughing at me because I had just lectured him on the phone 10 minutes earlier to make up his mind because he was driving me crazy. Anyone who knows Scott knows that he likes to tease me, but I'm just glad that he made up for it this time. :)

Bachelor Party

Scott spent this past weekend in Colorado snowboarding for his brother Tim's bachelor party. They had so much fun, Scott really needed to go have a break and hang out with the guys. Scott got so crazy that he actually broke his board and had to buy a new one!
