The decision has been made

I am going to the DATC starting November 2nd to get my CNA. It is a 6 week program plus clinicals. It is going to take maybe 2 months to get certified. I am hoping to move onto my RN after that. I am way excited, but nervous to start school again. This is definitely going to be an adventure.

Zach's new job

Zach started a new job about two months ago at Zions Bank. He is working in the National Real Estate Division of Zions Bank in the Collections Department. I think it is funny that we both work in collections now and that we work at opposing institutions :) Oh, by the way, I have a new position in the credit union as well :) We both love our new jobs, and love getting a steady paycheck :) That was the hardest part of Zach's old job.

Farmington Festival Days 7/11/09

Finally putting on the pictures of my half Marathon :) I still can't believe I did such a thing.

This is before the race.
From right to left: Me, Zach's cousin Sara, her husband Brian and Brian's sister. (Sara got a cold right before the race so was unable to run and Brian and his sister ran the 10k)

Off we go ^_^ Standing strong.

Mile 3 1/2 and the first water station!! I was dying!

Mile 5 1/2 Still a goin'

Mile 7 1/2

Mile 9 1/2 Having a really hard time.

still mile 9 1/2
Looking at this picture, I can see why my back hurt so bad afterwords :)
This was right before my wall. After this I had to go up the hill behind Russon Brothers Mortuary. It was a way steep and long hill. I couldn't jog very much after that.

Mile 11 1/2 It took me so long to get here that they cleaned up the water station. I love my husband for having a glass of water for me here :) Good thing it was right next to our house :)

Still mile 11 1/2 This picture kinda looks like I am being followed by the Secret Service :)

After the race. I don't have any pictures of the finish line, because Zach went and got me breakfast before they cleaned it all up. It took me over 3 hours to finish and I didn't jog the whole thing. I still finished the race. I have to thank Zach for being the camera man, getting me water in between the water stations, and getting me a bananna to eat because I got really hungry in the middle of the race.
