This weekend I took a Auto Extrication class. And yes i was the only girl, which when you think about it is kind of scary because them guys don't think you can do it. But i spent 6 hours in full bunker gear, which we did get to take breaks but we had to keep our helmets and pants on. The class was alot of fun. i took it because i want to know what is going on when i am taking care of the patient.
these are just a few of the 200+ pictures a friend took for me.
That is me holding the jaws, i just got done cutting the car door off. Michael is the one in front of me holding the cords
Michael is on the left behind the guy holding jaws

Long time no see!
It seems like i haven't blogged in a life time. I have been meaning to blog but things have just been so hectic with work and kids and home life. I am afraid i am addicted to facebook thats for sure. I forget everyday to read all my blogs i follow, it just seems like i never have the time lately.
i also have been doing some redecorating around the house too, i will definitly have to post pictures when i am done, right now i am working on my bedroom.
Bryers first day of kindergarden was thursday. The picture above is him in the car, we were running late so i took a quick snap of him in the car.
Well gotta run hope you all have a great weekend!

Lions and Tigers and Bears OH MY!
These were the zoo animals i took with me. We got there about 9:30 and stayed till about 3. It was a very long day with lots of walking.
We went and saw the elefphant demonstration. The other one that was there could make different noises on command. The one shown in the pic is Gunda, she is 59 human years old. They say she is in very good shape for being as old as she is.

Job update and request!
It feels like i have not blogged in awhile but i have been readin up on everyone elses.
I have started my new job on the ambulance and have got to go on several calls. Last week i worked 60 hours and can you believe that i only did that in 4 days. Thats not that bad at all especially if it is something you love to do. We have had some slow times, so i get to catch up on blogs, facebook, and myspace and all my twilight sites i read. It seems like i have been goin and going constantly since i started back working. i love bein a working mom again. It really makes me feel good, i don't feel like i am stuck in the house all the time. The cool thing is hubby and the kids can come to work with me anytime and hang out they can even stay the night with me when i am workin night shift. It was scary my first call bein by myself in the back but it was like it all came back to me. Although i don't like all the paper work i have just like workin in the doctors office.
Well i have decided to start doing a little revampin to my house, especially my bedroom. i have went through the last couple of days and cleaned out all the clutter and furniture that was unnessary in there. Changed the bedding to brown and tan zebra print which looks great and got new curtains. I am trying to put some romance back in there. making it like our own little retreat where only we are allowed to be in there. and so far it feels all the same. sometimes i feel that there is just somethin missing, i don't know how to explain it though but i am sure it will get better.
My friend Jana had her baby on saturday. Last summer she had a little girl at 20 some weeks and lost her. She is 41 years old and has been trying forever to have a baby and has had no luck. She has a beautiful baby boy name Jackson. I am so happy for her cause she deserved it. So please pray her and her family that everything goes well for them.
My second request is about my father in law. Remember back in Febuary i told you he had a heart attack and all that, well now he has just taken a turn for the worse. He can't be left by himself and needs 24 hour care. He only 15% of his heart left and has to be on oxygen all the time. Well it looks like we will be putting him in a nursing home within a few days maybe if his social security will pay for it. It cost like $134 A DAY yes thats right i said a day! I know it will all work out. We thought about moving him into the house but with 2 kids i just don't think we will be able to handle it. I have faith that it will all work out.
Can you believe that it will be the fourth of july already. This year i am not playing softball, we have been playing church league softball all summer everyweek so we decided not to play this year. Plus last thursday at one our games i was running to second base and some reason fell on my left knee. I should have went to the doctor but didn't. I blacked out so all i remember is falling and then next thing i know it is hubby was picking me up and i was in tears. It hurts to bend my knee and i can't lean on that knee at all and it is bruised and swollen still alittle. It really hurts trying to get in and out of the ambulance. I hope everyone has a great 4th. Hopefully this weekend i will get a battery for my camera so i can take pics this saturday.
Have a great Holiday Everyone!

Happy Fathers Day
I just wanted to say happy fathers day to all the fathers out there. We had hubbys dinner last night. i accidently fell asleep while they were doing all the grill stuff(hey i told him he should have woke me up). So i feel really bad considering he would not sleep in the bed last night and i have yet to talk to him today since i am sitting at work. Oh by the way i got my job. I started friday. My shift will be a 36 hour shift so i will only be paying a babysitter for 2 days and still have all week to spend with my family. Hopefully i will get in some more hours. I got a laptop yesterday so i could sit on the internet at work when i had nothing to do. Well hopefully hubby won't be too mad at me when i get home tonight. Today i am just working a 12 hour shift, which has been going by really really slow. So thanks for all the prayers for me to get my job.
HAVE A GREAT FATHERS DAY!!
