Yet another cake...

This is best cake by far! It also took the longest but my nephew loved it!

Another cake

Made this cake for my Dad, he's loves the beatles!

Special Cakes to date...

Over the last few months I have had the oppertunity to bake a few cakes so I decided to be a little more creative than I have in past. Most of the cakes turned out good.

This is my first and only cake using fondant and it was alright. The fam that out it was cool.

Liberty's 7th birthday party, she loves horses.

Libby's 2nd bday cake

This one didn't quite turn out how I wanted, it's suppose to be a dolphin. I'll do better next time.

Aspen's 8th bday Kitty cake, tried to make him look like her kitty at home and I kind of succeeded. I actually had fun with one, it took 3 hours!

PA school interview!!!

So, this is actually my third year applying to PA school and while that is a little depressing I am very excited because I just invited in interview in Orlando!!! Guess I might be moving back to Florida!

Check out my cake!

This is my first attempt at an animal cake. It's for Liberty's party tomorrow, she loves horses.

long weekend

For some reason I thought it was a good idea to take Friday, the 4th, off and make my 3 day weekend a 4 day weekend. I thought I would make some plans, take a trip maybe... Nope didn't do that but even with my 'no plans long weekend' I have still done quite a bit. I've make 9 jars of freezer jam from blackberries I picked myself, attended 2 BBQ's, watched the beaver game, made a blackberry crisp, finish shopping for niece's school supplies, piss my brother off and saw a friend I hadn't seen in a year. So, I also did a lot of sitting around but this quite a lot considering I had no plans and no work this weekend.

Annie Bear

This my little Annalise, well not so little anymore. She turned 3 this summer, I got her the dress she is wearing for her birthday. Isn't just a doll? She was only 13 months when I became her nanny. Miss that kid.

a little discouraged...

i kind of stopped blogging because i didn't think anyone read it but i decided to give it another try. i just saw a friends picture on facebook and she just finished her first year of PA school and she got her white coat. So when i saw the picture of her in the coat i was excited for her but really sad for myself. Getting into PA school is hard and frustrating and i want to give up. Unfortunately that isn't an option because as frustrated and discouraged as i am i hate where i am in life more. i have a mediocre job, i live my parents where i sleep in a bunk bed and i have a degree that is no good. PA school is my only hope but it's not exciting as it once was........ I really want to start my pracitce before i'm 40!

suck

Well, didn't get into Western University in Pomona, CA. Still on the waiting list for Barry in St. Pete, Florida. Should probably get started on next years application.

Wait List!

Well, got a letter from Barry University in St. Pete, Florida and I got on the wait list for their PA program. I'm pretty stoked. Now I am just waiting to see if someone drops out!

Interview #2

The interview at Western went well. I really like the school and my grandparents offered to let me stay with them. I hope I get in!

Off to California

Got another PA school interview request, so I am headed to Pomona, CA to interview at Western University of Health Sciences. I'm excited!! Hope I get in!

Florida Trip

Well I went to Florida for an interview and
got to visit some friends while was there.

Karissa and Asher

Asher's bath time

Asher and I became best buds

Terrence and Caleb

Ashlie and Chloe

Me and Thomas(one of kids I used to nanny for)

Matthew and Annie (2 more of my kiddos)

Me, Matthew, Alex and Annie at the Mall

Matthew showing me his power ranger moves

Annie just being cute


I had such a good time. It was so nice to see everyone
I almost didn't come back. I really hope I get into
school in St. Pete just so I can move back!

Well the interview is over

Had the interview for PA school today and well it was not my best work. I felt confident going into the interview. Oh and lucky me I got to be interviewed by the DIRECTOR of the program and another professor. So, the director tried to suggest that I didn't know what a PA is!!! I was like I have spent over a $1000 trying to get into PA school and it's not because I don't know what a PA does!!! Okay so I didn't actually say that but I thought it. The whole thing wasn't a bust though, they seemed impressed by my military record and my experience as a medical assistant and I did get them to laugh, kinda.

Well, can't do anything now but hope for the best! Cross your fingers!

Back to Florida.......Maybe

I got an email from Barry University last night inviting me for an interview!!!


So, anyway this like a huge deal, even if I don't get in. I applied to PA school last year did not get accepted, didn't get any interviews. I thought I would apply again this year and so I applied to 5 schools and got 3 rejection letters pretty quick so this interview request is pretty exciting!!! Oh and I get to go to Florida and see all my friends.

Christmas with my niece and nephew...

My niece and nephew came to visit for Christmas and so in preperation we made a snowman for each of them.

Creek and Aspen as snowmen

Creek put the angel on top of the tree.

Our overgrown Charlie Brown Tree. We went out in the woods and the kids picked it out and help cut it down and everything.

Christmas Eve, aren't they cute!

The real Creek. (4)

Aspen (7)

It was really fun having them.
Hope you had a good Christmas!
