Random Pictures

Just some random pictures from the past couple of months since I haven't updated in quite some time. School has been super busy and it just seems like there's no time to do this extra stuff.

I took this picture because I found it very funny that my daughter set up her baby doll in her booster seat at the kitchen table with 2 very tiny pieces of cake.

Hunter making his gingerbread Christmas tree

Stella posing with her gingerbread house.

This is another one that I have to explain. You see my dog, at the time this picture was taken was escaping on a regular basis. She would do this by digging holes under the fence. So we were in the process of burying barbed wire so she could easily dig and crawl under. well since we have a bid yard and burying the wire is time consuming I had her attached to that chair by her leash. That way when she dug under she was stuck because she wasn't able to dig a hole big enough for the chair too! I did come home a couple of times to find her just chillin' out on the outside of the fence, with the chair on the inside of the fence. LOL

This is some of my family at Thanksgiving. My grandmother, sister, niece, 3 cousins, my kids and me.

I just love her pigtails and dimples!!!!

My niece and me.

Bathing suits and the beach only in Florida on December 30th.

The kids just chillin'!

Halloween and Stuff

Last weekend we went to a Halloween party at my friend Heather's house . It was for the little kids, so she had jumbo the clown come to the party to entertain the kiddos. Some of the kids were scared of him but eventually warmed up. He made balloon animals or hats for everyone.

Stella and Jillian were dressed as cheerleaders at this party. They changed for each Halloween event! This was still at Heather's party.

Shannon even got Jumbo to make her a hat. I have a similar picture from 6 years ago at Heather's party with jumbo the clown. I would post it but that was pre-digital camera and I don't have a scanner. You'll just have to trust me on that one!

Jumbo doing his show. Not much different than 6 years ago. But the kids were all new kids ,mostly.

Hunter got in on his act.

Still part of the act. How cute!

We also got 'special' glasses in the goody bags. And glow in the dark vampire teeth!



Then during this past week at school we got to/had to mold the muscles of the face onto skulls with playdoh. It was a good learning tool to have to do that. I now know the muscles that I was assigned. Do you know where the corrigator muscle of the face is? I do! LOL

Every now and then we have to relax and just let loose. Playdoh can be fun!!

But sometimes we have to be serious and get down to the business. Those instruments are sharp, it would be dangerous to fool around with those things.

Halloween night was a blast. I made special treats for our get together. These are cake balls. Recipe courtesy of The Pioneer Woman

The eyeball ones were so cool. I was very proud of them. They were so yummy too!

The kids all dressed up and we walked around Shannon's neighborhood to trick-or-treat. Logan was a bear.

Hunter was an Ice Wolf Ninja. Minus the mask.

Stella was Dora the Explorer.

Jillian was Snow White.

Lucas was a dead guy. He was grossed out by his own costume. He doesn't like the blood and it made him queasy.

Hunter with his great big Bag'O Loot.


It was a fun week. Now I just have to figure out how to get rid of all that candy with out the kids realizing that I'm throwing it away.....

Halloween Past

I need help

I do need help. In more ways than one. But today I'm gonna stick to that fact the I need assistance in recruiting patients. I have to find 3 people that are willing to let me practice taking dental x-rays on them. If you are willing to help me out please contact me!!! The days that we have our patients are November 6th and 13th in the morning for about 1 and 1/2 hours for each patient. The patient will get to keep the films for FREE!! I will need to get paperwork filled out in advance so the sooner you could let me know the better!

So is there anyone who wants to help a girl out? and get free dental films? And help a girl out?

Please?!

New News

I'd like to introduce my niece: Isobel Amira

She's so cute and tiny. She was born on October 1st at 8:57 am. She was 6lbs 1oz. and 19 inches long.

Grandma was there and so was Grandpa. I wasn't able to be there because of school but I hope they will come up here for Thanksgiving with us so we can meet the new addition.


Other news in this neck of the woods is that the tooth fairy came to see Hunter and left him $3.00 for his teeny tiny baby tooth. His new adult tooth was already coming in behind the baby one.

News at school is we lost a student. No, She didn't die. She just figured out that working in someones mouth was not for her. So we are down to 11 students in our class.

This picture was taken the first day that we worked in each others mouths. That's Nikki working on a student and Mrs. H our program director and instrumentation and anatomy instructor. I can't tell who she is working on. You know that color uniform has pretty much made us blind...... just kidding.... maybe.

My new family

Meet my new family. Well, at least my family for the next 22 months. They are my class mates at school. There are only 12 of us and we pretty much travel in a pack where ever we go around the school. To the lunch room... big green pack, to the classroom.... big green pack, to the clinic.... big green pack. Do you get my drift??
So I'd like you to meet Eileen, Teresa, Hien, and Nikki (from left to right):

And Angela and Amy...
And Mirey (pronounced Me-ray) and Neeray (Raj for short)...
That is obviously not all twelve, but I don't have pictures of the rest as of yet. I have plenty of time to capture them all on film!

Below you can see me little darling working on her thesis...
And here she is taking a break from her tiring work on her thesis to enjoy the company of Joe (Boxer).
Just kidding on the thesis part.... just in case you weren't sure.

Next time I hope to have some pictures of us working in each others mouths for real, not just the dummy's we've been working on.
