Nursing School Graduation!


Well, nursing school has now come and gone. My goodness, it went by really quickly! In the end, 49 out of 60 students that we started with graduated. Here we are trying to take a group photo. I am not sure if the end result ever really did turn out well. I have yet to see it.




Congratulations class of 2014!!
Here are my favorite supporters! Tom, Katie and Kellen put up with a lot of studying and nursing stuff for over 2 years. They handled it with a great deal of patience and love!
We had our graduation at the Mesa Arts Center on May 5th, Cinco De Mayo! 


Here are my supporters again. Kellen was enjoying a yummy succor that Grandma Everett bought him. Speaking of which, I do not have the pictures of all of the people that attended graduation. As soon as I get them, they will go on the blog. I promise!


Here is Scott with Oliver, Landon at the bottom of the picture, Ross and Diana.

Kellen with cousin, Landon.

Landon, Hayden and my mom.


If you look really close you can see me on the left hand side. I am standing up getting ready to go get my graduation pin.

Mother's Day Tea

Last Friday, May 9th, I was able to go the Mother's Day Tea with Kellen. He was so cute! The minute I walked in he gave me a rose and took me to my seat. He then sang some songs with his classmates and then brought me some cake! Yum! He made me a little card that said that he loved it when I cleaned his room, he liked that I taught him manners (I will be keeping that card for the future!), and that I liked to jump on the trampoline with him. He is my sweet little man and I love him!!!
Me and my handsome little guy.

That is one of the cards that Kellen drew for me.

The girl in the green shirt is me! Kellen drew a picture of his mother!

Kellen and his best friend, Adam.

Laundry Room Bed

One night Kellen decided to build a bed in the laundry room. He did a very nice job, I must say. He made some cushions for a bed. He brought in books and then put bucket to hold his pull ups (yes, he is still working on staying dry through out the night). He also put a flashlight up for his books that he was going to read late into the night. Katie decided to join him and they slept together in the laundry room. Upon asking how they slept, they both said that they did not sleep very well because it was so uncomfortable.
Here they are on the little bed. I forgot to include the trash can that Kellen put next to him and the kleenex box by his foot.

They don't always wear Sunday clothes to make forts in the laundry room. They just happened to be dressed from an Easter celebration that day.

Katie being silly.
