The one week Women of Caliber took over my life

This was quite the week! I was a busy woman. If anyone was wondering, Chris and I are looking to move closer to his job, which is 45 minuets away from where we live now. Once we get back from Las Vegas next week I am packing up the house and getting it ready to sell! So, Monday night we looked at a couple houses. One was a nightmare, the other was perfect in every way. The only problem was, it was on a busy main road. So, we will keep looking until we find "the one"

Tuesday Corie, Stpeh and I from my gun club headed to Pocatello whichis  45 minuets away to get the word out about Women of Caliber. We want to expand our club and get other ladies from Pocatello involved in our club. We hit up all the gun shops we could find and passed out flyers. I had a lot of fun with these ladies, it was fun meeting new people and talking about our club. We went to a small indoor range and the guy that owns it let us shoot the new Ruger American for free, and let us shoot his ammo for free. He was a very nice man, and we were excited because, FREE!



Tuesday night I finished my finals! I learned a lot about genealogy this semester, and I am excited to learn some more! I was going to take this coming semester off so I could get the house ready to sell, but last minuet I decided to register for just one class.One class wont be too bad and Ill still be able to get the house ready and rest. Don't I look like a nerdy genealogist here? That's the look I am going for.




Wednesday was another play day at work, because I don't work. I throw parties at the front desk instead. Working at an eye doctor also comes with perks. Like these awesome glasses.

Wednesday evening was our monthly Woman of Caliber meeting. My second meeting as president I got to conduct. We had a great turn out and a great discussion. I am amazed at how big our club has grown! I am so proud! I am so excited for all the women out there who are interested in shooting. 

Today was a gym day! I pumped some iron and I actually really pushed my self today. I can feel my guns growing already. After the gym, Steph and I went out  to the range with our friend Dave who is an amazing shooter, and practiced for a USPSA match coming up this Saturday. I got so frustrated with myself and I was getting pretty upset because I wasn't doing well. I just want to hit the damn target in the middle, why is that so hard? 

After shooting I went home and took the dogs to the dog park. I have never been there before, and Jasper has been driving me nuts lately. My sister is a Vet-Tech and suggested I take the dogs to the dog park so Jasper can get out some energy. I have to say I loved every minuet I was there. I felt like a mom taking her kids to the park. I got to watch my "kids" play with the other "kids" and I talked to the other "moms" about their "kids" too, the "moms" told me how cute my "kids" were. I loved it! I sat there and started to tear up because it was nice to have that experience I have longed for, for so long, even if it was just with my dogs. I can't wait till the actual day I get to take my kids to the park. It will be a glorious day and a dream come true. The dogs had a good time,there is a big dog side and a little dog side, and it was the cutest thing to watch all the little dogs run around with each other. Roxy was more social able then Jasper was. Jasper mostly stayed by me and walk around on his own. 






Thursday evening Women of Caliber had a table at Sportsman's Warehouse for their ladies night. We had a great turn out and lots of our ladies came to help. Look at how pretty my ladies are!




My sweet friends suggested I stick my dogs in my high chairs. I tried it and while it was adorable, Roxy was not a fan of it.

Easter and Not Having Friends at Church

I had the privilege of teaching the Easter lesson this Sunday. I taught on the Savoir's last week on earth. I hid Easter eggs all over the room with scpritures on Christ inside them. The girls loved the Easter egg hunt because their parents say they are too old for egg hunts.  Sunday's are hard sometimes. I caught my self crying during sacrament today. well, because I have no friends. About a year ago our Ward was dissolved. I had a lot of friends at church, some who have become my best friends. My good friend Jenni who lives a block away and was really my only friend in the ward, moved across town yesterday. Another family I am friends with is moving as well. Church is the hardest place to make friends. I feel like because I don't have kids, and I'm not a newly wed, I don't fit in with any of the groups. The people my age have a million kids, and the couples without kids are kids themselves and just got married like last week, and no one has really wanted to be my ...

Valentines Day

 Valentines day is a very special day for us. Nine years ago we went on our first date. Nine years ago I was doing some not so good things with my life. I drank a lot, did drugs, and smoked cigarettes. Not the ideal thing for a Mormon girl to be doing. I did not have much support and just hung out with people who did the same things as me. I knew I wanted to changed and be better but I didn't know how. I prayed one night the Lord would send me someone who would help me with my drinking and smoking because I couldn't do it alone. One day in January I went to church,  at the singles ward, pretty hung over from the night before. But hey, at least I was at church! I remember seeing this boy from a distance and something struck me. You know love at first sight? Thats kind of what happened, except it wasn't exactly love; there was just something about him that I needed in my life. He saw me sitting alone in Sunday school and he asked to sit next to me. I looked around the empty...

Christmas

My friends think they know me or something.... Amy made a shirt that says "Trophy Receptionist" in GOLD, and Ginger gave me socks that said " You're Not The Boss of Me" It's like they think I act like a princess, but I don't ;). I was pretty excited for my socks and shirt My lady lumps make it hard to read my shirt!  Since it was the week before Christmas we really didn't have a lot of patients. Amy and I made one of our famous music videos, I am going to try to post it right here but don't know if it will work.  I went to Sam's Club with my sister one day and hung out with my super cute nephews. I want to squeeze and kiss them all the time! They are the most kissable boys ever! Well, So is Chris! The little one is just chillin like a gangsta.  With my Christmas bonus I bought myself an Alex and Ani bracelet. These are super popular in Rhode Island and they have a store in Salt Lake City too. They were start...
