Happy Monday

it's friday...

thank goodness for fridays! Even though I have to work 11 hours on fridays...it just means I've got another week done with school! and we're that much closer to graduation (august 23, 2013!!)

School is awesome. HARD. but awesome. Now that I'm getting the hang of the intensity...I'm liking it more and more each day. I've got classes such as anatomy, morphology, embryology, spanish, preventative dental, radiology, radiology lab, pre clinic & pre clinic lab! it's quite the load...but I'm (somehow) managing all of it.

We don't have much to report since we're both super busy. I literally go to school 8-5 and do homework 5-11 Monday-Thursday. Jordan has been SO good to me by helping me with spanish. He has even been sick this week...and yet so helpful. He's a lifesaver! He's been generous with the foot rubs, dinners, and even a trip to coldstone. ha. love him.

anyways...we're both busy (as usual) but loving life!

as a (or what panda likes to call it..) BBQ bonus...here's the link to our FULL wedding video. Our videographer told me that I'm not allowed to just post the video online since we don't have the rights to the music...so for those of you who actually read the blog...click in the link and when it asks for a password...type in jordancatelin (nocaps...no spaces)

happy weekend!

back to school

This week has been SUPER busy! Jordan and I started back up in school last Monday...and we've been non-stop ever since. Every year growing up, I received a father's blessing the night before school started. This semester I was able to have my adorable husband give me one. He gave me the most tender blessing of comfort in the decision I have made to attend this school and to start my career. Of course I teared up a little, but it is a moment I'll never forget.

 I love him.

 I finally started school at the Utah College of Dental Hygiene (sounds legit eh?) and I'm on my way to becoming a registered dental hygienist. That's right, August 23rd 2013 can not come soon enough! I'm in a class of 60 girls from all over; arizona, california, washington, oregon, idaho, utah, texas...

The next 20 months will probably be the hardest months of my life thus far....but I am excited to get started with the career that I've been working at for almost 4 years now.

Jordan is still at UVU working on his Bachelors....by the time I graduate, he will be wrapping up his degree and looking at schools for his Doctorates in Psychology.

We both have awesome jobs to keep us busy as well outside of school and we LOVE any free time we get to have with each other.

ohhhhh the life of married students.

gotta love it

not many pictures for this post...just basically a little journal entry.

I'll have to get pictures in my school uniform. Navy blue scrubs and white shoes. every. day.

this is the good life

insomnia

Since we've been married I've discovered that my husband struggles when it comes to sleeping at night. I feel bad for him because I am PRO at sleeping. As soon as I lay down I'm out within 5 minutes. He, on the other hand, will stay up until 3 or 4 some nights. It's funny to see what he's been up to in the morning...I'll find that the laundry is folded and put away, there's a lunch waiting for me in the fridge to take to work, the dishes are loaded/unloaded etc. Wednesday morning I woke up to this...

These beautiful flowers and a handmade card! He only had a few newspapers and a magazine to work with for the cut out words...but I love it!

*ps. the mom-to-be is in reference to the future. as in FUTURE :)

a few of my favorite things

here is a quick blog of some pictures that I love (and have played around with on my new iphone ❤)

update: new years was awesome. I got to stay at home with my love, cuddle up to the heater and the New York NYE party on tv. I actually fell asleep at 11 pm...and I'm perfectly fine with that! Jordan claims he kissed me at midnight...but I don't remember :)

This is our last week together before school starts monday and life ends. We are really enjoying the free time!!

anyways...here are just a few pictures for you!
