Lots of Food.

Everything has to do with food lately... 

We said our goodbyes in Casper, and Austin's mom treated us to our favorite diner. I mean look at that milkshake! That thing is glory! In fact, there's so much YES in that milkshake that Austin can't even handle it right now. 




I miss those guys already! Kristine is staying behind to shadow a PA and work.

Knowing that we started long, long shifts and full time and then some, we had to prepare our meals in advance. Pinterest, Pinterest, Pinterest. 

That's all I can say. I was able to make gluten free turkey meatloaf, and beef and pork asian slowcooker meatballs. Both on our recipe page!

The meatloaf: 



The meatballs in which we stored in the freezer for another day:
(I froze dinner portions of the sauce by ziplocking them. That's the printmaking container I was talking about haha, good ol' graphic chemical citric acid....) 



Lastly, I have a new project I want to do (when I get time, holy cow this full-time server and front counter work we both have is killer.) When up in Casper, they had all these cool cacti, and Susan bought two for an early birthday gift! I have these small planters, and I want to make dangling cacti by making yarn macramé slings. 


Who knew cacti were so colorful?

Well, here's a nasty selfie. McDonald's has offered me a great job I'm enjoying, and it'll be crazy hard work the whole summer to save money for the school year! Nope, haven't got "coned" yet. Thank goodness I'm not in the drive thru. Tell you what, if you want to develop your multi-tasking skills.... work a crazy busy restaurant.  


I am sure I will have plenty of stories. I already do haha! 

Austin is facing a conference that will stay at the Hotel he serves at, and they all have meal vouchers. That'll be exciting haha!

All I can say is people better watch out because if they are mean to me now, they might end up in my operating room one day and before they go under I'll say, "May I take your order?"

Mwahaha. 

Cheers from Laramie, WY! Xoxo

The Last Stretch

I am on the last little stretch before the surgery! It's amazing how in denial I can still be, thinking that I do not have anything wrong. But then you get a wake up call when your body does funky things you can't stop, and then you fall down the stairs twice. Once I popped my shoulder, and the second I popped a hip and broke my back molar coming down on my side. So I got that tooth fixed ASAP, thank the heavens it didn't damage any roots! At the dentist my mouth was opened for an extended period of time, and needles were involved. Just when you think you have this whole Dystonia thing under control.... another reminder! I got lock jaw while working as a floor nurse! My jaw had increasing pain through the week, and I revisited the dentist. Nothing wrong with my tooth. At work, it sealed shut (and not to be gross) but when you have an intense cramp like that, it causes immense pain. I do in fact throw up sometimes from the pain. Well if your mouth seals... and tons...

Call Me a SAHM in Training

Stay at Home Mom (SAHM)  Besides a medical leave and two maternity leaves, I’ve always been a full-time plus on call nurse mom. I am now almost two months into being a SAHM and I would have to still say I’m training! A lot of you have told me routine is so important, and I’ve been trying my darndest to do that. We do library time or errands in the morning, naptime and quiet time after lunch, and art and outdoor/indoor active  play until dad comes home! Some days it blows up in my face, much like what we’d call a s-tshow at work, haha! Except these are my monkeys and my circus! But mostly because I am learning and loving it, too. I struggle with anxiety and depression. Ever since I was little. My post-partum depression with R was so difficult. I am so lucky to have an incredible husband and health team that honestly kept me alive during that time. Luckily, I was treated prior to giving birth to A too because a) it was known I get PPD and b) it’s better and easier to tr...

Sunday Eats

Finals are upon us! Wish us luck!  So a little about life lately... or you can skip to the awesome food at the bottom lol. Well, we might need that luck especially cause I kicked a stool on accident in the print lab and broke two toes all crazy like. Then proceeded in my 12 hour no-break printing frenzy standing on them dang toes.... and sick.....lol! That's what I get for not wearing my brace. Good thing we are done with Insanity! That's right, you heard us! Done with Insanity, the 9 week program :D We both are going to take our pictures soon and post them! We are doing hip hop abs for the next two weeks as finals are happening (and it's less intense on my toes) then starting Insanity all over. Yes, we are insane thank you ;) We actually were kind of freaking out because this fall, we apply to law and nursing school! We finish in April, but will hear most likely in the winter where we will head out to.  I might wait to apply until Austin chooses a scho...
