Long time

So, it's been over a month since I have updated or posted anything at all. I am sorry! I hate when I go to blogs that haven't been updated...come on people I want to know what's been going on in your lives. Well, I am one of them.

I had my school orientation at the beginning of the month. I am so excited to finally start my classes and be on my final destination of being a dental hygienist. Classes start on August 26th and can't come soon enough. Here is a list of my classes this semester....I've never taken more than 2 at a time (well, I guess I took 3 once, but one was online and EASY):
Intro to Hygiene (Theory)
Head & Neck Anatomy
Dental Anatomy
Dental Radiology w/lab
Embryology/Histology
I am a bit lucky in that we are starting out the year slowly with only having classes M-Th. I was worried that I was going to be there M-F from 8-5. This semester I only start at 8:00 one day and I will be able to get Cameron off to school on the other days. I was pretty worried about him having to get himself off to school.

Yesterday I got together with Shannon to do a little scrapbooking. I did two digital pages while I was there and then later in the evening I made a little avatar of myself for a message board I am on.I hope to get more pages done today, but I need to head to a bakery for some eclairs, clean house then go to a Bastille Day party tonight (thus the need for eclairs).

Cameron starts 4th grade on July 27th. Where does the time go? I can't believe he is going to be in 4th already. He is a bit bummed that he didn't get the track (year-round school has different tracks for all the kids) he wanted, but he will be in the same class as a few of his friends. We kept him pretty busy this summer with hockey camp twice a week. He improved a great deal over the 6 weeks. I can't wait to see him play on a team again later this year.

Michael had a bit of a scare a few weeks back with a partially obstructed bowel. We thought he was going to need surgery, but the doctor had him go on a clear liquid diet for a week and the obstruction cleared itself up. We are thankful that he didn't have to undergo abdominal surgery as this is something can reoccur from that surgery.

As I type Michael is up in Alaska salmon fishing with his dad. Fun times! He has hopes of bringing home 50 pounds of fish. Eeewww! I am not a big fish fan. Cameron and Michael will be enjoying the salmon though.

I hope I don't let this blog go for so long until my next post, but until then....have a great day!
