....a little late

Since Adam and I were not together on Valentines day, we decided to celebrate the Saturday after he got home. So last Saturday after I had been to open lab and had been studying for 4-5 hours, Adam came home with these....FLOWERS!!

He had just finished helping our friends move to Spanish Fork from Payson...Man they just missed us so much they had to move to Spanish Fork and be near us...

I Love my flowers Adam got me, they are beautiful!! He even got my favorite kind (daisies) After we got ready we decided to head to the movies and we watched Unkown. It was a good movie and didn't turn out the way I though it would, and it was still an okay movie.

Next, since we were right by the mall, Adam told me to part and we sent into the sports store there and he had me try on new running shoes!!!

I got the Nike Free Run, and we even got 15 % off on them....Gotta love military discounts!

They are the most comfortable shoes EVER!!! the little squares on the bottom move with your feet and it doesn't feel like you even have a shoe on at all. Can't wait to start running now...if I can find a little bit of time in between my classes.
For dinner we wanted to go try Texas Road House, we have been once and it was when we were first dating and it was a horrible experience! But we though we would try anyways. We called and they said it was 90-120min wait for TWO people! Really? I am not going to wait 2 hours just to sit down and then wait another 1/2 hour for my food. So we went to Ruby River! I got a small sirloin and it was so good!

I love our date night, it was really nice since we haven't had a date night in over 7 weeks.

I love you Adam and thank you for the shoes, the flowers, dinner and a movie, and for being the best husband EVER!

My Valentine!

Tomorrow is Valentines Day! This will be our third Valentine's Day together for Adam and I, and unfortunately we will not be together. :( But the happy news is that we will be together again on Friday (don't know what time yet though, hopefully we will find out tomorrow). JUST FOUND OUT THAT HE IS COMING IN AT 7:20 PM ON FRIDAY!!!! We will just have an excuse to go out to dinner next Saturday.

I want to take a minute to thank my wonderful husband for being my Valentine for Eternity. I love him so Very MUCH! I want to thank him for being the one who loves me for me and for everything I do. He is always telling I can do the things which I don't think I can do....Like anatomy, he is always telling me that I can do it, even though sometimes I don't think I can. He is always there for me, even when he was out on his field exercise I got a letter that he had mailed the week before and it got to me just in time when I needed it most. To read the words, "I love you Crystal!" Him saying those words will never get old, EVER! I love hearing him say it. I remember when we got sealed in the temple our sealer told us to ALWAYS tell each other we love each other. Adam and I tell each other this all the time and we wouldn't have it any other way. I LOVE Adam with all my heart and nothing will ever change that. I truly can't imagine my life with out him in it, with out him my life just isn't complete.

I love him for everything he does, for the countless hours of sleep he has lost in order to call me at night. On a couple occasions we have stayed up till 2 am talking, which is 3 his time and most of the time after that he has to get up at 7 am on Saturdays and 4:30 am on the weekdays.

Adam is such a strong person and he makes me want to be a better person. He was brave enough to join the Army and serve his country. He left for training back in July and has been away from me and other family members since then. I know it has been a hard time on him to be away from me and other family members. The time we have spent apart has been hard on me too, but when I was feeling down I could always just turn and call my mom or someone else and cry to them. Adam had no one to turn to when he felt down. When your loved one is feeling down and you can't be there to hug them, is the worst feeling in the world.

I am so very proud of him! He has done so good during his training and he just got back from his last field exercise on this last Friday and will be graduating on this coming Friday. He passed off all his skills on the first time and has gotten really good scores on his tests.

I am so proud of him because not only will he be graduating as an Army Medic but he will be graduating with honors!!!!! I love you Adam and I am so proud to be your wife and to have you as my husband.

I can't wait for Friday to come and to see his smiling face as he comes out of the gate at the airport. When I see his smile, I can't help but smile back at him. I can't wait for him to hug tight and tell me that he loves him so very much. To have him kiss my forehead as we are hugging is something priceless and is something that I cherish.

This journey Adam and I have been on, has made our marriage, and our love for each other grow beyond measure. It has made both of us realize just how much we love each other. You can always know that you love a person and then when you are apart and then see each other again all the love you have for each other seem to grow and you KNOW that YOU LOVE them so much more than you did before. Just when you think that you can't love them anymore, you get surprised and you love them more than you ever had before.

I love you Adam with all my heart!

Thank you for being my Valentine, and I can't wait to see you on Friday!

The Next 10 Days...

The next 10 days are going to be so LOOONG and so HARD. You want to know why? Well it's because I don't get to talk to Adam for 10 more days. I have to wait until next Friday to talk to him or text him or anything. Yesterday they started their two week Field Exercise and they don't get their phones and anything during this time. He called me yesterday morning at 3 AM, luck for me I just happen to wake up, just to tell me that he loves me...How sweet is my man to me. I love him so very much! As if he wasn't sweet enough to call me, when I got home last night from Open Lab there was a letter sitting on my dresser that he wrote to me and it has taken a 4 days to get here. I really did need that letter.

Well that is what is happening in my life right now. I can't talk to my sweet husband and I am busy, busy, busy with school.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ADAM!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ADAM!!!!

Today is my husbands birthday and I so wish I was there to celebrate with him. Unfortunately that is not possible this year. He is at Fort Sam and I am here in Utah. This last year we have been apart for our 2nd year anniversary, my 21st birthday and now his 27th birthday.... I love this man with all my heart and I really, honestly don't know what I would do without him in my life. He makes me smile when I am down, and he always knows what to say to make everything better.
He does so much for me all the time, and most of the time he doesn't even know that he is doing it. He is working so hard to make our life better not only for us, but for our future family also.

Adam if you are looking at this post, please know that I love you, my love cannot be measured because it continues to grow each and ever day. I love you so much and it kills me not to be with you on your birthday. You mean the world to me and you are my world! You are my everything! I love you Adam!!! Happy Birthday my Love!!

Sorry

I'm sorry that I have not blogged in a while, but I do have a GOOD excuse....I've started yet another semester of school. This Semester I am taking Nutrition (which is not that hard of a class) and I am taking Anatomy. Anatomy has taken over my life, I study every minute I get to. I have a friend who is taking it and we go up to take our lecture class together on Tuesdays from 6-9pm, and we have different lab times. Mine is from 4-6:50pm on Thursdays. Along with having to go up to the school twice a week I go up on Saturdays and go to open lab, were we do our homework and pass off our oral quizzes (one, out of our 3 quizzes we have each week). All I can say is that I am happy that I am only taking one other class along with this, and working. I don't know how people take a full schedule and have Anatomy and pass it.

These are my lovely Books. The one on top is the Lab book and it's about 3inchs thick and was $88.00

My books yet again.

Don't get me wrong, I do like this class, and it's fun to learn all this new stuff, it's just a LOT of information to memorize and remember. We learned the bones of the superior limbs (aka-your arms), and we have to know all the landmarks and spell the correctly. I think that the humerus has the most so far.

Well now you know what it going on in my life and why I am so busy and can't blog. Oh, and Adam only have 5 weeks left!! 2 weeks of training in classroom and the 2 weeks of going to Camp Bullis and then they have a week to do paperwork and such before they come HOME!!! Can't wait to have him home, maybe he can help me with my Anatomy.

The most Wonderful TWO weeks!

I know that I have not blogged in over two weeks, but I do have a great excuse...Adam got to come home for Christmas on the 17th and so I have been spending 24/7 with him until today. Today I had to take him up to the airport at 5 in the morning, very early and very cold.

This is us on the 17th when Adam got off the plane and into my arms.

He is so handsome, I LOVE HIM!

The two weeks we had together went by way too fast. We were kept busy with Christmas, playing the wii at his parent's house, and my brother's wedding. I am so grateful that Adam was able to come home for Christmas, it really was the best gift I could ask for! The first day Adam got back he froze, he had a hoodie, coat and a beanie on and he still was cold. By the next day he was starting to get use to the cold.

Today when I took Adam up to the airport it was crazy busy and it was only 6 am when we got there. Lucky for me I was able to get a gate pass and I got to be with Adam up till the time that he had to go on the plane. So instead of having to see him off at the security check point I got to spend an extra 1.5 hours with him. When he had to go on the plane I cried a LOT! There was another girl that was saying goodbye to her loved one in the military and she cried a lot too. I can't wait for the next 6 weeks and 5 days to go by when I get to see my Adam again.

Here are some pictures of our puppies that are going way fast.

Adam holding our puppy.

My Medic Man

Adam sent me these pictures the other day and I thought I would share them with you.

Now that he is in the Wiskey training he has to wear full body armor and everything during his training.

Here is one of him with everything except his helmet

Here he is with everything on. His backpack alone is 30lbs!

I love this man so much, he is my medic man!

He is so lucky today, he gets to do IVs! I am so jealous because I want to learn to do them soooo BAD!

Only 1 Day and 5.5 hours left!!!
