It's Official...

...I am going back to school! I have decided to pursue a career as a Medical Assistant. I have been thinking about this for some time now and have decided to go for it! I'm excited and nervous all at the same time. Heck I haven't been in school since 1995...it will take some adjusting to get back into the studying mindset!

My hope is to get into a Family Practice or Pediatric clinic when I am done, we'll see what happens!

Memorial Day

So I was looking around on the Des Moines Register website and the local news websites for Memorial Day services and all I found was either a thing down at Vets Auditorium, a service in Ankeny at one of the parks, or a parade and such in Indianola. Thought there would be more going on as I was hoping to bring Alexa to something to get her started on why we have Memorial Day.

Maybe I'll drive out to Greenfield and see the Freedom Rock. We'll see.

Check out this tribute and then say a silent prayer for all who have served and are serving for our freedom!

I've had a great day today! Woke up to a little girl quietly lying in bed saying "Mommy....Mommy", she doesn't get out of bed until we tell her too...I know, Crazy!! So we watched some Playhouse Disney together, made some pancakes, and just hung out. After Kyle was done with his bike ride, he took Alexa and headed to meet his parents for lunch. I got a good 20 mile bike ride in. I originally was going to ride by myself, but met up with Kristin and Julie V on the trail, so they turned around and rode with me. A little relaxing and some grocery shopping to round out the day. I nice relaxing day!!
