FRIENDS

So, I am going through the season of FRIENDS ... and this is seriously one of my favorite scenes!!

Weekend Fun

On Friday, Bryan and I took the boys to the Christoval track meet! Lots of fun!

On Saturday, Lance was running in Ozona, and Shane did not want to go ... so I told my Aunt Becky that he could come stay with me (especially since my house is right on the way)!! So at 7:20 AM, they called and said they were passing Wal-mart ... so I got up and met them on the highway, so they could just keep going!

I thought I would go back to sleep after I got him started on cartoons ... but he wanted to watch Benchwarmers! So I stayed up and watched it with him! Then I started cleaning ... up and down, and around! SO I asked Shane if he wanted to help me, and that I would pay him! He was like SURE! He mopped ... he vacuumed (the whole house) ... he dusted ... he folded towels (which refolded afterwards, hehe)!! He really helped a lot!

Around lunch, we went into town for some groceries and I wanted to get Bryan a golfing jacket from Academy! I told him he had $15 to spend ... we walked all around the store, and he ended up getting a UT t-shirt and a remote control car! I was so proud of him because he would look at the price, and if it wasn't under $15, he would keep walking!!

Later, we watched another movie ... while he made ramps for his car!!

My mother came and got him around 5:30 ... he spent the night with her because Aunt Becky and Uncle Ronnie got in late!!

Bryan and I each had fun nights planned ahead of us! I was headed to Charlotte's Lingerie/ Bachlorette Party at 7PM. While we were "Playing with Panties" (that's how the guys put it), all the guys were going to watch Watchmen. We had a wonderful time ... full of laughter and secrets/pictures that are not allowed on the blog! The boys, on the other hand, had a horrible time ... they all thought they movie was horrible!

One picture to share ...

On Sunday, that hour lost was a killer (as it is today also)!! We ate with friends after church! Then we went and looked at sunglasses for me! *I want a nice pair!* When we were looking around, I told Bryan that my biggest problem was picking one pair that I really really liked! The lady told us that we had 90 days to return them; broken, scratched, whatever! So Bryan who got a pair for Christmas, and got a scratch on the lenses like 2 days later ... told the lady and she was like you can exchange them for any pair! So Bryan, got himself a brand new pair of sunglasses (same style)!! I left with nothing ... but that's ok!!

Later, we watched Expelled at my parent's house! Great movie!!

Another great weekend! Here's to my last week as full-time at Trinity Ridge Homes!!

Darren and Charlotte's Couple Shower

On Saturday, We hosted a "Honey-Do" Couple Shower at our house for our good friends, Darren and Charlotte! We had wings for supper (with the fixings), presents, cake and loads of fun and fellowship!!

Bryan, cooking his yummy wings ...
and I was just probably getting in the way!! hehe

Me and Kaela ...
We hosted the party together!

Chelsea & Ken ... Blair & Lacey

The Happy Couple ...

Most of the guys went together and bought him ...
Yes, a gun! But boy, was he excited!

I bought Charlotte an apron, then I asked my aunt to monogram it with "Mrs. Buhle"! Charlotte later told me that she was going to register for that exact apron at Target! Along with the apron, we got her a lot of "green" cleaning products!

Darren and his "Daddy's Honey-Do Bucket" ...

All of us with our monogrammed aprons!!

The yummy cake!!

We had all of the guest sign a board that goes in a picture frame, so we took a group shot to put in it! We had to set the camera on the TV stand ... it took a couple shots to get this good one!!

Around 9, a couple of people started to head out! Bryan got some of his new clubs in, so a couple of the guys began putting in our hallway! Then the remaining guys went down to the gym, while the girls sat around and jibber jabbered!

All in all, it was great fun! Can't wait for their wedding!!

San Angelo Rodeo 2009

On Friday, we went to the rodeo ... and as always, it was a blast!!

Charlotte, Darren and Jaime

Bryan's Parents came down for the rodeo!

Thanks Darren ... for making the picture!
I meant to take another picture of us ... but I forgot!!

Team Roping.

Whiplash ...
He is an amazingly smart border collie,
that has a monkey ride him,
while he herds sheep!

Waiting for orders ...
How cute!!

Loading them in the trailer.


More roping ...

hehe Poor calf!

Muttin' Bustin' ...
Bryan says our kids will do this!! hehe

This little girl is 5 years old, and she fell off her house during the barrel racing!!

She got right back on and finished the race!

All in all, it was really good!!

The Big News ...

My Current Attire ...

My New Uniform ...

Last Wednesday, I accepted a job with Shannon Medical Center!

Now, that might sound crazy ... so here is a little background information! I have always wanted to be a nurse! But during college, I didn't believe I had the "discipline" to take the classed to become a nurse! I received my teaching certificate, and am glad I did! But I always wonder what it would be like to be a pediatric nurse!

The housing market is low ... so I have been looking to find a part time job! I would drop my hours at Trinity Ridge Homes to part time also, and have 2 part time jobs!

So, my wonderful hubby and his friend from Dove Creek have been working out in the morning at the gym! Somewhere it comes up, that Sean's wife is the head nurse in the Pediatrics Dept. at Shannon Medical Center ... AND they are looking to hire 3 nursing assistants, part-time, Monday and Wednesday!

So I filled out my job application on Monday, had an interview on Tuesday, and accepted the position on Wednesday!

I am so excited about this ... and no doubt, this is a God-thing! Here, I get the chance to see what it would be like to be a nurse, see if I like it ... and if I ever wanted to go to school for it! It is a great foot in the door opportunity! And also, they are paying me to find out what it's like ... instead of me paying the school!!

I have no idea when I start yet. Tomorrow, I have to go to Human Resources for drug tests, background checks and all that good stuff!!

PS- Bryan helped me pick out my first pair of scrubs last Thursday! We went with Kermit, because that was my Tanner's favorite character (Tanner was one of my fav kids in my 4th grade student teaching class; he passed away in March of 2007 from heart problems!)

Sorry, for all of you who thought this was something else ...

Rylan Jace Marino

My cousin, Ashley and her husband, Brandon had their baby this morning! Weighing in at 7 lbs. 8 ozs! He is so handsome! I can't wait to meet him!


Mom and Baby are both doing great!!
