Feeding Ducks

Kade and I decided that we were bored at home by ourselves one day, so we took Mazee, our niece to feed the ducks. We had so much fun! We just love spending time with her.


Kade was warming the ducks up before Mazee got to the pond. We just love spending time with her.

Mazee and Kade took a break from feeding the ducks to pose for a picture for Aunt Brette!




Kade got a duck to eat the bread right out of his hand. Mazee was really impressed.

Graduation

I finally made it to my graduation. I was only a year behind, but I made it. I am officially done with all of my exams that I needed to take to get my license. It was a long road to take, but I wouldn't change my experiences for anything. I know that this is what I'm suppose to do. I am so happy that I was able to finish Hygiene school. UCDH was so awesome to let me take a leave of absence and let me come back. I even received the survivor award from the school. The award was started by a previous hygienist who survived cancer. She wanted other people to be rewarded for going through hardships during their schooling. It was so nice, the students and my professors gave me a standing ovation... I was so grateful for the thoughtfulness of my fellow classmates. I didn't realize that I had made a difference to anyone, much less my entire class. It was so sweet of them, and I'm so grateful for all of them. Both classes. I am so glad that I now have 119 new friends through this whole experience.

Some of my favorite instructors! They were all so excited that I finally graduated
