"Nothing will work unless you do." - Maya Angelou

We are busy working these days. Chance has started his first clinical rotation and is working at a skilled nursing facility all day. He helps the elderly with their physical therapy rehab and has interesting experiences with bodily fluids almost daily! Lucky him :)

I am loving my job at Community Health Connect. I help coordinate care for patients in 13 medical disciplines, including cardiology, general surgery, neurosurgery, and others. I have the best coworkers and am able to speak Spanish for a large portion of my day, as a majority of our clients only speak Spanish. I love it.

We are also both adjunct instructors at UVU teaching a physiology lab. Chance has been doing this for two years, but this is my first semester and I am teaching 3!! It is so fun to relearn and teach one of my favorite subjects.

Anyway this is our life right now... busy busy, but oh so good.

23

I have loved the number 23 since the day I was born in Chicago. I just like the sound of it, 23....... I think it is going to be an exciting  year! I had a great birthday thanks to Chance and my amazing family. I am looking forward to another year of learning, growing, and experiencing new things.

Ice Cream and Waterfalls

This past week we checked off two items on our Provo bucket list, eating at Sammy's and hiking Mount Timpanogos. One was delicious and the other was challenging, but they were both delightful experiences!

We had the oreo pie and banana cream pie shakes, so tasty. 

The beginning.

Birthday Week

Here are some exciting moments from Chance's birthday week. 

Chance's dad drove down and took him out to lunch, golf, and bought him a fancy new driver.

We met up with Tangi and Scott for a fun afternoon at Boondocks and a yummy dinner to follow. Chance and Niels got soaked on those boats!

 

Uncle Chance! These kids are the cutest.

I made Chance the Brink family favorite, Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cream Cake. It was heavenly. It was thoroughly enjoyed by all. 

This shirt was Chance's birthday present from me. He is a cougar through and through that is for sure. He is already anxious to wear it to the BYU vs U game coming up in September, which my family gave him a sizable donation for!

 

I love birthdays. I love Chance.

day of birth

Yesterday was Chance's birthday! His birthday is a joyous day because I am so glad he was born! My life would be incomplete without him. 

 Happy birthday cute boy, we will be celebrating all week!
