My work Christmas Party

Every year we have an amazing Christmas party at work. This was one of the games we played. We grabbed two of the Docs (one of which was our friend Nizar so it made it even funnier) and they put on this pajama suit and Night shift vs. Days- had to stuff as many balloons as possible in the PJs. Whoever had the most wins!

Dr. Parker had what we called a "hemorroid" hahaha. He didnt even know it!

Some of the girls at work!

And of course dancing. Everyone at work loves to dance!

It's Beginning to Look a lot Like Christmas!

I was kinda mad she was in my lunch box.....but had to take a picture first

Adam started his coaching at Sparks High School! He is the assistant varsity coach with a friend of ours who is the head coach. I'm so excited for him and considering he wore this all day after their 8AM practice, I think he is too! He said it will be a rough year, only one returning starter and I guess the school is in a low-income area where the kids have little access to baseball before they get to high school. Last year though, the friend of ours whose the head coach had an excellent season and got coach of the year! Go Railroaders!

We got a little crazy with lights...they line our entire hallway!

-Oh and never blogged about my last minute trip to Salt Lake City. I applied to Westminster in SLC for my masters in anesthesia and they called on halloween and asked me to be there on the 3rd for an interview! So I caught a train and went. It was perfect my dad was coincidently there and I had an awesome time hanging out with him and my grandparents. Nothing to do for three days but the interview. It was nice. the interview went really well, I still have 2 other schools I applied to OHSU and Gonzaga. Westminster offered me acceptance which is a great blessing- I just pray for guidance with the other schools, as they are closer to home and at this time, seem more practical.

Halloween and Thanksgiving

For Halloween Adam was a hillbilly and I was Wonder Woman

We decorated our car for trunk-or-treating at the church. Everyone is to have a game for the kids to play and of course, hillbilly Adam's was a shooting game. It turned out really well. We taped pictures of the pasters to each bottle that was to be shot- the kids loved it!

Adam's been working with the childrens ministry, I think he really enjoys it!

Trans Syberian Ochestra!

Very cool, everything I thought it would be! It's just like a Christmas rock concert!

We walked out of the Arena and it was snowing! Perfect! ( And perfect for the fires that had been burning up parts of Reno that day)

THANKSGIVING

My WHOLE family did a turkey trot Thanksgiving morning! I loved it. Adam ran the whole 5k, and although he doesnt say much about it, I'm very proud and I think he is too- this being his first 5k. It was cold, but the rain had ceased for the 2 or so hours we were there. I was so happy all this was done as a family- not one person was missing :)

Adam and I with my sister Jenny, Brett, Tyson, Blake, Cade and Adalyn. Waiten for the "Go"

Plenty of Carb and Protein replacement afterward!





We spent the rest of the day hanging out, watching football and chatting....it was great!
