anyone and everyone is welcome to join us on any of our adventures. i am posting the list on here so i can continue to add to it! i am spending summer 2012 traveling and doing all the things i haven't been able to do since i started this program!!!

::Summer Will Be my Death::

i have had my official 'school' breakdown hit me. summer semester has been tough on me. i can't get into the groove of the summer semester and all i want to do is lay by the pool but i can't.

i was sitting in class this morning listening to my teacher talk about everything that is due in the next few weeks. my mind has been telling me 'it's ok you have until august 4th to get everything done no need to rush' ... well mind you were wrong i only have until july 19 and let me just tell you how far behind i am on everything.

to top it all off i have a super cute client in clinic and i have no idea what i am doing with said client and i am pretty sure i am making no difference in said clients life :( yep sure have cried about 57 times over said client's cuteness and my inability to be a successful clinician.

only 1 more month and i can lay on the beach for 1 whole week with zero worries!!!!!

::Our Golf Debut::

The Sutherland's are a family of golfer's now and we love it!

We all got golf clubs this year for Christmas and we love them! We have been out hitting a couple buckets of balls and we have been out on the course now 2 different times and we love it!

Look at that form! He is awesome!

I had to ride in a cart all alone and I was so busy taking pictures and watching other people that I kept driving right into the benches!

He is one amazing golfer (and guitarist!)

::everything and nothing all rolled into one::

i had a 2 week break from school and let me tell you it was much needed and fabulous! i don't feel like i took advantage of it like i should have but oh well!

nothing has really been happening in our world right now. we are loving learning about Lacrosse and B is having so much fun playing! he really loves it!

B is #9! i tell him before every game i fully support penalties over goals any day! he hasn't made a goal yet but that is not for lack of trying ... man that kid takes any shot he gets and the stupid goalie blocks them all :( ... on a happy note his team is undefeated for regular season which is good b/c every sport he has played his teams have been undefeated i don't know what i would do if we were on a losing team!!!

jeremy and i are trying to be healthy people, oh so very hard ... i have never wanted candy and Sonic DP more in my life!! we realized we were basically eating what we wanted when we wanted and that is just no way to live life so here's to a healthy us!

my cousin Dev graduated with her Masters on 5/5/11 and we had a celebration for her HUGE accomplishment. my goal of graduating with my master's and joining her in that club is looking more and more reachable at this time! wahoo i can't wait for school to be over! congrats Dev you are amazing and i can't wait to be part of your cool kids club!

not even half of the people at her fabulous celebration!
some how the only pic i got of the grad was at our drive up margarita window!

some of the peeps making some delish guacamole!!!

i am pretty sure we have literally not done anything else with my 2 week break other than just relax, clean the house, and do laundry on a regular basis ... i know doesn't sound like much but trust me my house hadn't been cleaned CLEANED since i started school IN AUGUST ... sick yes i think so!

today has been one of the first super nice days we have had and i am loving every minute of (it actually just started to lightening and rain ... of course!)

happy start of summer!

::Happy Mom's Day::

Happy Mom's Day to my wonderful mother and best friend! I love you forever and always!

Happy mom's day to all other mom's, aunts, grand mom's, soon to be moms, want to be moms, animal moms, and any woman who helped raise someone/thing as their own as so many people in my life did!

Hope all you mom's get out there and use and abuse this day it is yours to take advantage!

::Easter 2011::

HAPPY HAPPY EASTER TO EVERYONE!

we had a good Easter and I hope you all did too. We had both kids for some saturday Easter fun with my parents and then all day Easter Sunday! It was a blast!

Happy Easter from B, Kira, and Marley!

The next million or so pictures are from the Easter egg hunts at my parents and at my aunts house. The Easter bunny is a lot different for these kids than he was for me ... these kids got loads and loads of candy and made 90$ a piece between all the egg hunts!

::It's almost summer ... I hope::

Yesterday was so nice we took the first official Jeep ride and loved it!! We can't wait for summer summer summer time!
