So, it has been awhile since i have posted, but we have been so busy. Hailey and I flew to AZ on May 3rd and then returned to AZ on May 24, stayed at Brandon's parents until tonight. So tonight is our first night back in our house (well actually second, but that is a long story). So here is what happened while we were gone.
I thought we were flying from Phoenix to Tulsa, OK, but at the airport i realized they put a tag that said OKC, so i had the check in guy take my bags back off the conveyer only to find out that yes indeed i had a booked a flight into OKC. Now this normally wouldn't be a big deal, but my sister was supposed to pick me up in Tulsa and her fiance was flying out of Tulsa, so she had to do some extra driving to come and get me and Hailey. We had a good flight though and made it to OK. I took a class in Tulsa the first two days and Hailey played with the Bishop's. They have four girls and Hailey had so much fun with them. We spent the remainder of the week packing so Tiffany could move to Chicago and doing occasional things for the wedding. On Saturday, Tiffany graduated from OSU and afterwards we had a little party at her house. After that we packed up and got ready to drive to Chicago. We didn't leave until late, so we ended up stopping at 1:00 in the morning. Hailey did excellent on the car ride and we arrived on Sunday at 3:00 pm. Tiffany, Hailey, Brandon (Tiffany's brandon), and I all had a very nice time in Chicago. On Tuesday evening, Tiffany, Hailey and I flew back to OK. The rest of that week went by fast and on Thursday we celebrated Hailey's 2nd birthday with the bishop's. Hailey had a blast as she helped Tiffany make a chocolate banana cake and Tiffany decorated it so cute. On Friday, Hailey and i met up with Sara and Melanie (friends of mine, Melanie is Hailey's age, they had the same due date, but Mel came early) and played in the park. Then we drove to Lawton, on Friday evening. On Saturday, Hailey had yet another birthday party, this time my mom had Dora everything for her. My friend Christina and her daughter Lola came over to help celebrate. Hailey's godmother, godfather, and Jayden and Alyssa were also there to celebrate. We had a fun time. On Sunday, Tiffany had a wedding shower and recieved lots of wonderful presents, we spent the rest of the evening planning what we were going to do with the rest of the week to plan for the wedding.
The rest of that week flew by. On Wednesday, Tiffany, Hailey and I were heading to OKC to pick up my Brandon from the airport. ON the way there the tire blew out and we lost control of the car and spun around and slammed into the concrete center median. The side air bag deployed so i had a pretty nasty bruise and some burns on my arm, but other than that we were all okay. My mom's car had to be towed off, but we eventually made it to the airport and picked up Brandon. The rehearsal dinner was on Friday, wedding on Saturday, and we left of Sunday. So it is amazing how fast those three weeks went by.
While i was in OK we found out that Brandon's position is being cut due to budget cuts. So Brandon applied for a job in Dallas, Tx. He was 10 of 30 applicants called back. Unfortantely he was not called back a second time. For the time being, we are staying put here in Phoenix, and the city of phoenix has offered brandon a job in there public works area. So keep us in your prayers.
I am on my LAST clinical rotation for school. It is in a hospital and it is a very different experience than my previous clinicals. I have 7 weeks left and i can't wait. I can't believe i will be done with school very soon. i graduate August 8! =) It will be here before i know it.
well, this is long and i am tired. I have a ton of pictures and lot of stories, but i will share more later. I am going to try to be better about updating this.

ReplyDeleteI'm glad to hear you all aren't having to move quiet yet...hopefully everything will work out in perfect timing!
Melanie & I LOVED seeing you all.
Hang in there on your rotation. You're almost done!!!
Wow, what an update!! Was your sister hurt at all in the wreck, or Hailey?? I'm glad that it turned out ok. And I'm really sorry to hear about Brandon's job. I completely understand the fears and worries that come with job unknowns. I hope that everything will work out the way you want it to! And I can't believe that you're almost done with school! That will give you so many opportunities, and I'm really excited for you.
