Greatest Family Ever

Riley and I feel so blessed to belong to the family's that we have, they are just the most incredible people ever, and are all such great examples to us. And we don't tell them this enough but we love all of them so much!

My parents, Troy and Jodi, are such fabulous people, they have been married for 29 years, they are such a great example of how to be married. They have 5 kids, 1 daughter in law, and 2, soon to be 3, son in laws. They are grandparents to 5 grandkids, and they support every single member of their family and friends. They really care of about every single one of us and love to have family get togethers. There is always somebody at their house. They taught me to love the outdoors and to respect nature and enjoy it at the same time. They love to have fun with the family.

Riley's parents, Brad and Shannon, they are really, I couldn't have asked for better in-laws, they raised Riley to be the best guy in the whole world. They have been married for 28 years. They have 4 kids, 1 son in law, and 2 daughter in laws, with 2 grandboys, and another grandson on the way. They really support all of us and show excitement in all the accomplishments that comes to members of the family. They LOVE to have so much fun, which I love so much. The motto that I think goes right along with this family is Work Hard, Play Harder, because that is what it is all about, and I love every minute of it.

Katie and Jesse, they are engaged, they are so sweet to each other. I am so thrilled that they are getting married. Katie is a preschool teacher, and she has so much patience for little kids, I admire that so much in her, it is not something that I have. She is the sweetest person and will always try and help if she can, she loves her niece and nephews and they know it. Jesse works at Cal Ranch, and he loves to play with the niece and nephews as well. He is so good in the family and fits right in.

Shelby, she is an amazing hairdresser, and she is the comedian in the family. If you ever need a laugh just ask Shelby, she has so many crazy stories that you wouldn't even believe she gets herself into. She has so much ambition and goes after what she wants. I so admire that about her.

Jake and Mikalyn, they are missing one child in this picture but this is the one that I could get, so they have two kids now, and they have the two cutest kids ever. Myles and Tenlee. Jake is in the air force and has been deployed twice, Mikalyn is just so brave and I admire that so much about her, I certainly look up to her for that. They are both such great parents to those cute little ones.
Jamie and Chris, they have 3 boys, and so freaking cute, I love them so much. Jamie is also such an amazing hairdresser, she has that ambition and goes after what she wants as well. Chris is such an amazing dad, he really takes care of us family. And those little boys keep them running Gabe and Justin are so into sports and they are so good at them. And Brigham just started t-ball and he is good. He wants to be big just like his older brothers.
Chanse, sorry when I was looking through pictures it looks like Chanse doesn't like our camera so this is really the only picture I could find. Chanse is a information guy, if you ever have any question, Chanse knows the answer, he is so smart, it makes me jealous. His personality reminds me of Riley alot as well. I admire that he is so laid back and doesn't really stress about much of anything. That is a talent that I wish I had.
Jordan and Mandee, they have the newest addition to the Sabey family, Sawyer, and can I just tell you have much I love him. I knew Jordan before he was my brother in law, he served in Utah and actually knew my family, so it was wonderful when Mandee married him. They are both such great examples, they both graduated recently and have their teaching degrees, a profession that I admire but could never do, and they are fantastic parents, being around them for once second you would see how much they love Sawyer and love every part of taking care of him.

Dahlin and Biz, they have the funnest little boy, Syler, he is so smart, he makes you laugh when he is up their and loves his new cousin Sawyer. He also gets a baby brother this year is so excited. He is so good with Sawyer and I know he will be a fabulous big brother. Biz is probably the strongest woman I know. She is incredible. I look up to her so much and admire her. She is amazing! She is a respiratory therapist. Dahlin is an accountant, and he is such a great dad, he really enjoys being around his family, he really takes care of his family.

That is our families, and we are so blessed to have such a great family around to look up to and have fun with. Sorry this post is so long, but I just felt like I should show my appreciate for all the family in our lives, and tell them that I love them all.

Confidence

I made it, I made it to my last semester of nursing school, now I am wishing I am beyond this last semester. It is so hard to juggle everything that needs to be done for this semester, precepting, peds clinicals, and community hours for my capstone project. It is not fun at all! And to top it all off I am so nervous to do my precepting, I just have to be confident in my skills, abilities, and brains. Not an easy thing, I just keep thinking of things that i need to go over and to study and memorize. Just pray I can do this and keep my sanity. Well if you made it this far in my ramblings, this is a picture of the Sabey family. We took it while up in Canada!

Canada Part 1

Hello from Canada,

We are up in Canada and having so much fun, the weather is so great up here, it has been warm, today you will see that we did have some clouds but other then that so far so good. Today we got to repair a barbed-wire fence, it was pretty fun to do, never having done it before, it was out on the Sabey farm and it was quite the experience, which I almost ended up in the creek twice, Riley saved me more than once, ha ha. Here are some fabulous pics of us putting in the posts and putting up some wire, and viola a fence!

This is our new nephew Sawyer, so freaking cute! I love holding him!

This is the finished product of the fence! Me and Riley working hard on the farm!

Grandpa Sabey (Riley's grandpa) and Syler our other nephew, also so freaking cute!

Riley, oh my heck, isn't he just the freaking hottest guy ever! I do believe he is looking GOOD!!! I just love him so much, he looks good doing farm work!

Riley driving his new dream, he totally wants one now, ha ha another thing added to his wish list! It is pretty sweet actually, I wouldn't mind it. Ha ha so maybe for our wish list. Ha ha

Well that is so far our trip, hope it has been a great day for everybody else as well.

Moving On!

I am so freaking excited! It has been finals week in our house for both me and Riley, well Riley handles the stress pretty well, he doesn't stress to much and can enjoy just being done with the tests, me on the other had stress out way to much, even after I have taken the test. Riley just laughs at me with all my crazy antics until my professors post my grades. Well good news, I PASSED all my nursing finals, so freaking happy about that, it means I am moving on to my LAST SEMESTER in school! That means, I will be a freaking crazy person all summer long!

I still have one more final on Friday that is for one of my general ed classes which I still do have to study for and pass. BUT after that we can kiss Utah goodbye, we are headed to CANADA! Party up North! I am just so excited to get away and see our brand new nephew, Sawyer, and of course so excited to see and play with all the family up there. I love my in-laws, they are so much fun and we love going up there! Wish me luck for friday! Peace Out!

Clinical Experience

Hey All!

I am finally putting these up, they are from clinicals and here are some kids from school. This week I took these I was on L & D and can we say, I LOVE THAT PLACE. I seriously do, it was amazing to witness these births and coach these women through this incredible experience, loved every minute of it. But that is also why I am not in my school scrubs, we had to dress in OR scrubs so that we could scrub in to watch the C-Sections. I loved this clinical day! And today was our last day of clincals for this semester! It was awesome!

This is me and Boston, she is awesome and will be such a great nurse! Don't mind that I was so tired that day, so hard to stay awake and work for 12 hours!

Steve and Natalie, both are way smart, and they also will be such great nurses as well!

Boston and Alisa, I think Alisa is just amazing and will be an incredible nurse! as well!

Again, Boston and Alisa, just goofing around! This is our last semester of clinicals now we are onto precepting and it will be so exciting! So close to being done, yet so far! We will all be fabulous nurses I think and can't wait to actually be done with school! Good luck everybody in my class!

Oh, What A Beautiful Day!

I just love that musical, OKLAHOMA, and would very much watch it right now if I had it but this is not what this post is about, another post will be on musicals. Today I had every intention of being a good nursing student and studying my brains out until I say what a beautiful day it was outside. It was such a bright blue sky and can we say billowie clouds! Just amazing, while looking at them I had the sudden urge to climb a tree and just watch all the passerby's. I think I would have througly enjoyed myself and would have called it a very productive day but alas I couldn't find any trees and it was kinda windy/somewhat cold outside. But I couldn't just sit inside on a day like today, I had to settle for sitting in the sun in the house. Oh Well! This weather did bring to mind summer days of old when I had nothing better to do than climb a tree, sit in a hammock or play with friends all day long loving every single minute of it! Here are some random pics of just having fun in the sun! Oh how I love summer and cannot wait for it to return to my presence! I also can't wait for the day when I can once again have a summer without school in it, but another blogpost this one is happy! Oh and I did end up studying tonight for all my tests this week, OH CAN WE SAY BARFF!

Who doensn't love a good sunglasses picture! I love this pic, it is from our wedding! Just so nice and HOT!

This is me and my sister Shelby, just playing in the sun one day! I think we were watching a golfer on the golf course! Another great summer activity!

Pretty Flowers! A summer MUST!

And this is a vacation, we took to Yellowstone! I freaking love that place, totally have to go there if you have never been! It is amazing! This is just out in front of the elk refuge in Jackson Hole, another amazing place!

For My Husband

When I met Riley he told me about this band from Alberta, he played this song for me and I wasn't to fond of it at first, but it grew on me, and while playing on the internet one day I found this video. Brings a smile to my hubby's face everytime he hears it, and I just love when he smiles and laughs. Hope you enjoy it! It is a pretty great song!
