Christmas is over!

I just wanted to add these today because I am not sure when or if I can get to this for a while. School for me starts Wednesday. I took a 2 day class this last weekend called Road trip to Nursing. It was not fun. 2 day filled with ways to deal with our stressful lives. Apparently we are going to be so stressed out and overwhelmed that I won't be able to cook, clean, do laundry, or spend time with my family and friends. Hmmm....then they kept saying things like you probably aren't going to pass your first test. But don't freak out because you will have 6 more that you will HAVE to pass or you will fail. You have to get an 80.0% or higher to pass the classes. If you get lower you get an F. There is just A, B or F. That is it. I do realize that it is going to be stressful but it was freaking us out in there. So if I don't see anyone for a while SORRY in advance. They said for every hour we spend in lecture we will have 3 hours of reading at home. We have lecture for 6 hours a week. Yeah I am not so sure about that one!!!! Hopefully I won't have to study so hard. Otherwise I may loose my husband and kids!!!!

So it has been a funny week. Shaffen FINALLY got his Christmas present (only 6 days late). Tuesday night (Dec. 30) we finally got the call at 9:00 pm. We ran over there to get it from my friends house.
These are my happy boys. Shaffen was grinning ear to ear. He pulled out his gun and the boys decided to get their shotguns that they got from Santa. It was quite funny.


Proud Daddy!!!!

Also this week we took down all of the Christmas decorations. I have NEVER seen a more happy kid than my Conner! He was so excited that Santa was not coming to his house anymore! Shaffen and I started taking down the tree and putting it into the box and Conner seriously started dancing, he had the HUGEST smile! He was singing, "Santa Claus not coming to town!" He is so excited he tells us everyday that, "Santa not coming." "Christmas is OVER!" He is such a crack up!
So I hope that my schooling doesn't make me a hermit! If it does I apologize in advance!

Maybe that class is just a scare tactic... hopefully! Good luck in school!

Hey, I saw this and had to comment. Nursing school IS TOUGH. They are not lying about the amount of time you will have to devote to it. I never see Chris when school is in session. Lucky he graduates in May or I would have lost it a long time ago. Good luck with everything. He loves it and can't wait to be an "official" nurse since he is only an extern at work right now. This summer he will be the real deal.

Don't let it scare you! It's tough, but you just get through it! It helps to have a really supportive husband at home to help out with all that laundry and cooking you wont get to! But you will find time for it all, just keep the end goal in mind. If I could do it with my 3 little kids at home, you can too!!

Misty,
I'm sure it will be difficult but I know you'll do great. I think they try to scare the pants off of you guys to weed out the week. Plus, if you go into something thinking the worst...then it's not quite as bad! Reminds me of bootcamp! Good luck with everything. The boys are super cute. Keep us posted!

Scare the pants OFF of you guys to weed out the WEAK!
