Landon and Kirsten Selk...

...were married today in the Provo Temple and we couldn't be more happy for them! It was such a wonderful weekend. They are such a great couple, and we wish them all the luck in the world! Kirsten is one of my best friends from Monterey. We were in the same ward, and just have never lost touch over the years. We have been friends through each other's "crazy wasn't quite thinking right stages" and "getting married in the temple stages", so to say the least this day was just beautiful. She is an amazing girl whom I love so much! AND I am pleased to announce that I approve of Landon :-) (they are perfect for each other). The weekend was also great because I got to see a lot of great people from Monterey that I haven't seen in years! (Dressing up as a bridesmaid was fun too!)

1 year old cake is NOT that great!

We forgot all about the top layer of our wedding cake that we had stored at the Baldwin's house...OF course we had to try some, but much to my disappointment is was super gross! I wanted it to be good so bad because I didn't get to eat any at our wedding, but oh well...I had Jess take me to Baskin Robbins instead :-)

Jess's Birthday...

...the BIG 2-8!!!! Jess had his 28th birthday on September 6th. We had a BBQ with family and some friends while we watched the BYU-Washington game. We got a Dora the Explorer pinata for the kids, and just had fun hanging out. Jess is an amazing guy. If you don't know him--you should because he is for sure worth being friends with! He does such a good job of taking care of me, working full time, going to school, being the funnest uncle ever, etc...I love him :-)

Of course, a celebration not complete without a cake.

My Spiffy Scrubs...

...are so dang comfortable! I just thought that I would post this picture of myself before my first clinical. I was SO NERVOUS, but it ended up being awesome and not as bad as anticipated. My clinical group went to the Heritage nursing home and I got to help out on the rehab floor where old patients and working back up to an optimum health level to go home. I always thought that all old people were nice, but BOY was I wrong...turns out some of them HAVE to have their tissues in certain places and refuse to tell you their sons' names because "you don't even know them." haha...so I am learning not to get my emotions involved too much. For the first two weeks of school I was overwhelmed, but now things are falling into place and I am excited that I decided to do this!
