Sedona

Yesturday we went to Sedona. It is about 2 hours from Phoenix. We felt like we needed to see something in Arizona while we were still here. We went to Slide Rock State Park. It is a river that runs through the red rocks that has natural water slides and water deep enough to cliff jump. The water was pretty cold but it was really fun. There was a spot to cliff jump but it was a little to high for us 20+ feet! Sedona looks alot like southern utah. It was nice weather 95, it felt good compared to the 110 weather we were having in Phoenix. It was fun, there are some pictures below.

So I finally got my grade for my practical retake. I passed with flying colors. Even though it was a pain in the butt to fly to Philly for the retake, it was nice to get a good grade and prove that I will be a good PA!!
I have 3 weeks left until I am done with my last rotation and then go to Philly for graduation. I am very excited! It seems that the last few weeks are really dragging. I am ready to be finished. All I have to do now is finish my graduate project and put in the time at my site and then I am done!!!
For those of you who don't already know, we are moving back to Utah. We are very excited. Russ will be going to school full time at UVU (for now) and I will get a job. (FYI if anyone knows anyone who needs a PA let me know). There are so many things about Utah that we miss. One being able to go outside! The mountains, the snow in the winter, family, no scorpions, hiking, the list goes on and on.....
We are going to be driving up there on Aug 15th. 3 weeks from today!!!!

YUCK!!

This is Russ trying to get it out of the printer and catch it.

So I am not a fan of Phoenix anymore. This is the second scorpion we have found in our house. The first one ran in when we opened the door. This one I found this morning in our spare bedroom. I was going to print something but the paper was out so I reached my hand in the printer to feel how many pages were left and I saw the scorpion run back into the printer. I shutter just thinking about it...yuck

This is the scorpion. We have to catch it under a glass container and then suffocate it with nail polish remover to kill it.

4th of July

Happy 4Th of July!


Kelsey, Jamie, Ashley, Russ and Wyatt at the Layton City Fireworks.


We had a BBQ then went to see the fireworks. It was fun, there was a lady next to us that was drunk and had to dump out all her beer cans and then she threw them across the lawn, it was entertaining.
