Wedding Plans

Well, so far so good. Wedding planning hasn't been too terrible yet, and I have had a lot of help as well! We have the big things taken care of, like the temple, reception center, rehearsal dinner place, and honeymoon mostly planned out. It's kind of a stress reliever....except for all of the little details that go along with the BIG things. I do have my wedding dress though...which was another big stress reliever. Sorry, can't show it off yet, I want it to be a surprise for Blake. We'll see how long that lasts. Even though I know a lot of people don't read my blog, I do want to thank both Blake and my parent's, and siblings for being so supportive and awesome about this whole wedding thing! It can be stressful for everyone, and I hope I haven't been too much of a bride-zilla. I'm trying to avoid it as much as possible.

I do have to say, it is hard to not be a bride-zilla sometimes. There are just so many things that are thrown at you, it's hard to not feel under a lot of pressure. Especially with school and studying. But we will make it, and not every wedding is perfect. Thanks again to everyone who is helping out or just giving me positive attitude adjustments from time to time. Love you all!

Internship 2011

For my major we have to do a 6 month internship in order to graduate from the CLS program. I had my interview with about 6-7 different hospitals from around Utah and Idaho last thursday. My top two choices were Utah Valley Regional Medical Center and IMC (in murray). My interview was only about 3-5 minutes, and all it I had to do was answer any questions that the hospitals had for me. Most of the questions asked were about my recent engagement. :) Well...I found out where I will be doing my 6 month internship! And it is....*drum roll*

If you don't know which hospital this is, it is IMC in Murray, Ut. It has a huge hospital laboratory, and many hospitals actually send some of their tests and patients to IMC to get treatment. It's a really nice hospital and I am excited to be spending January-June 2011 there!

I'm Engaged!

After dating in high school, Blake's mission, and college life, Blake and I are getting married! We have set the date for July 16th. We couldn't be happier and we are both excited to start a new chapter of our lives together. Marriage is a big step for us, but we are excited. I just thought I would put some of my favorite pictures of us, and, of course, a picture of the ring! As many of you know, and have caught me doing this, I can't stop looking at my ring! It's so beautiful! Hope you enjoy! I think I am getting better at this blogging thing....ha!

My Major

So, as many as you know I am in the Clinical Laboratory Science major at BYU. It's a great program to be in even though it's really stressful! Let's just say I have about 4 tests each week, so I study a lot! At least I enjoy it. It's hard to keep myself motivated enough to study, but somehow I get through each week. I love the people who are in my major and my teachers are great! The picture above is everyone who is in my major with me. I will be graduating in June 2011, and I'm excited to get out of school!

New Blog

So, my previous blog won't let me do anything on it anymore, so I decided to start a new blog. Surprisingly, I have tried for many months to make my old one work...obviously without any success. We'll see what the new blog brings. Here's the link to the old one just in case there are old articles or anything you still want to see. http://aubrieanne.blogspot.com. Hopefully as I get used to using this blog, I will be able to update better and keep people better informed about stuff going on in my life. Until then...I can use all of the help I can get. As you can tell...last blog was a failure. Not very many people knew I even had a blog, and I didn't post very much. Hopefully this will be better.
