Nap time

This past weekend Joe and I went to Las Vegas for the weekend. More to come about that, but on Saturday we wanted to check on the BYU vs TCU football game (we shouldn't have bothered, the score just made both of us mad) so we went to the part of the casino where you can watch sports and bet on them. We found this gem of a guy who had all his betting sheets in front of him and had his monster energy drink too, he still managed to fall asleep at 3 in the afternoon. He may look dead, but don't worry I used my nursing skills and confirmed that he was still breathing. PS: I fought off temptation and didn't gamble at all

Another update!

This morning I had an appointment with my cardiologist. I was a bit nervous for this appointment. I have been wearing a heart monitor 24/7 for the past 2 weeks, this lets my doctor know exactly what my heart is doing. When the monitor senses something irregular it beeps and that is suppose to tell me to try to stand as still as possible so it can get a good recording. It would beep all the time but I felt great when it was going off, so I was a bit frustrated.

Today my doctor told me that he has never seen my heart look so good! He said he was excited to hear that I have been able to exercise a little bit again. I told him that my heart monitor would beep at me all the time and he told me that what it was recording was a certain type of a beep in the middle of the heart, I do not remember the official name of the beep...but he said than in an 80 year old it is not good, but in a young athlete it is a great sign. (he called me an athlete! but I guess I am an athlete compared to all the 80 year old people that he treats) I got the go ahead to start decreasing not only 1 of my medications but 2 of them! I was not expecting this! So the plan is that I will meet with him again in 3 months and wear a heart monitor before the appointment so he can check out my heart again. Thanks for your prayers! It will still be a long road ahead, so keep me in your prayers.

My best friends wedding

Celina is one of my favorite people in the world. We first met my sophmore year at BYU when we moved into the same apartment in the Avenues. I remember her calling me before we moved in together to call and see what she might need to bring. She was the most cheerful person to talk to on the phone. Celina is one of the most friendly, happy people I know. Her new husband, Adam makes her happier than I ever thought possible. Seriously she was giggly and smiling like crazy.Here are some pictures that highlight their special day!Beautiful!
So about the flowers, they were suppose to bloom pink and white flowers but they didn't bloom in time. I still thought it was beautiful, I will have to post a picture of my bouquet once it blooms.

This little flower girl was adorable



I loved this cake and the cake topper!


I love my Avenues roommates! I am so happy no one has moved far away and that we still get to see each other! I love you girls!




Congratulations Adam and Celina!!!
