FINALLY!!

So the time has finally come...I graduated yesterday @ 2:00. It was a blast. I couldn't figure out which pictures to put up so there is quite a few.

This was my station that they had decorated for me. It is hard to see by the picture but it is a cowboy theme. There was one other girl and I that listened to country music in my class so the theme fit me well.


I got a pedicure in the morning by my friend CJ. It was so relaxing. She was loving me because I chose her to do it and if I hadn't she would have been wrapping a perm like everyone else in the background.



Then some of the girls took me out to lunch at a little pizza place down the street.


These were all the people that came to celebrate my finally clock out. Had quite a few suprises...Josh told me he wasn't going to be able to make it because of work but he came on his lunch (I was very excited he was able to come it really made my day!) and one of my friends that had already graduated showed up who was also on her lunch.

Josh, Hayden, and Kaden

My Grandma and LeAnn


Tarin and My Mom

Kalah, Ryan, and Brittany

My Dad

My Aunt Tami came too but I some how missed getting a picture with her.

This is me waiting to clock out. The countdown of that last minute took forever!!


Later that night, my whole family met up for dinner at Macayo's. It was a lot of fun. It's not very often that both sides of the family get together and everyone be there.


When I got home I put all my flowers in vase and set up everything I got to take a picture. I really got spoiled. I got: flowers (5 bouquets total), a corn dog bouquet, balloons, some hair products, make up, hair clips, a business card holder, a trip to DISNEYLAND (can you tell I am excited about that one), a shirt, cowboy hat earrings, twizzlers, some money, and lots of cards.

This is the buisness card holder my parents got for me. I don't know how well it will show up but it says "Hairs my card" on the mirror. Now I just need the business cards!


This was the corn dog bouquet. I was always eating corn dogs for lunch and so one of the girls I went to school with was a florist and she put it together for me.


YEA!! I AM FINALLY DONE!! I can't believe it. It is so exciting. Hopefully I will get my license soon and be in the salon by the middle of April. I'm sure that will be here before we know it too. Thank you everyone for your continuous support!

The Countdown Is On!

Only 1 and 1/2 more school days!

I can't believe it. A year has come and gone. I met some great people. Learned a lot of cool things. Made some fun memories. The end of this is only the beginning of something bigger!
Our Valentine's Day!

On Valentine's Day we didn't do a whole lot. After Josh got off of work he came over and we exchanged gifts. I got him 2 books that Terrell Owens wrote, a fountain that he has been asking for for like a year now, and some candy. He got me a new phone. I am finally up to date. I have had the same phone for almost 2 years. Josh always out does me no matter what holiday it is (not that I complain ha ha). He always knows exactly what to get too every time.




After we exchanged gifts we went to the church basketball game. He played while I watched and played on my new phone. I was the most supportive girlfriend there oh wait I was the only girl there on Valentine's Day. I didn't mind though. After that we went back to his house and played with my phone and messed around on the computer. Even though we didn't do much, we still had a good time.

Saturday Night!!

Last night Josh and I went out and it was just us 2. I dont think that has happened in a very long time. We had quite the night out though.

First we grabed a quick hamburger at my favorite place:


And then we went to see:

Stomp Out Loud


The show was at Planet Hollywood. They were having a 2 for 1 special for locals so the price of tickets weren't that bad. We sat in the second row of the balcony but the seats were perfect. It was a great show.

And then we saw:

Fools Gold

This movie was very good. It was more funny then I'd expected. It definitly doesn't deserve all the bad reviews it is getting.


So needless to say we had a lot of fun! (thanks to my amazing boyfriend that treated me to all of this.) It seems like I hadn't been out until midnight in forever. It was very much worth it though. Hopefully we get to do it again soon.

Look What I Did At School Today!!!

I did my first full set of nails on a client. The client happened to be my Aunt LeAnn. I needed practice for my state board test so she came in to help. Its a good thing that I plan on doing hair when I get out of school because nails is not my forte. It took me 2 hours to finish and it only takes the little Asian ladies like 45 minutes. It may have took me a while but I have to say they did turn out pretty good! Thanks LeAnn for helping me out!

Happy Birthday Tarin!

My little sister turned 13 yesterday. She turned 13 but thinks she is 16. We had family over for presents, cake (cupcakes too!), and ice cream.

On Friday night she is actually having her party. My mom is being brave and taking some girls up to Mt. Charleston for the night by her self because my dad is hurt. (I would go with her but of course I have school) They are going to have dinner at the lodge, open presents, hang out in the hotel room and talk about boys like all 13 year old girls do. Then they are going to wake up the next morning, go to the old lodge for breakfast, and play around in the snow all day. I'm sure she will have a great time. It sounds like so much fun!

A Lil' Bit Country!!


This past Saturday my family went to the Brad Paisley concert. We got the tickets for Christmas and had been waiting anxiously to go. We ate at Chili's before the concert and showed up to the concert early to get my Dad situated before the show started. Unfortunately what started out as a family function kind of ended up as a sister outing and a parent outing. My Dad tore his MCL at work the week before so he had a brace on wouldn't allow him to bend his knee so he couldn't sit with us in the normal seats. He and my mom ended up having to sit in some chairs literally right across the arena. It was not too far away. We could still see them from our seats. That is my mom in the blue shirt standing up and my dad sitting in the chair to her left.


He toured with Chuck Wicks


and Rodney Atkins.


Both of who were extremely good. Good enough that we went out and bought Chuck Wick's CD that came out on Tuesday. But during the little intermissions, between shows, we got a little bored. Can you tell?!?!



My Sisters and I


My new Cowboy boots I got for Christmas.

And of course the star of the show. Brad Pasiley. He was very good. He played his guitar a lot, sometimes too much, but he was very entertaining.



Overall the night was great. We had a lot of fun. Next concert on the list......Kenny Chesney!! (hopefully)
