Graduation!

2011-08-03T21:40:00.001-07:00

So At the end of April I finally graduated from Nursing School. I didn't actually walk This is our pinning ceremony. It was kind of fun because Clint's mom is a nurse so she was able to pin me as a future nurse. Though I had graduated I still had state boards which made it feel as if I wasn't really done. I took boards on May 31st and may I say I will never forget that day. I don't think I have ever been that scared in my entire life. I didn't eat for a few days prior., I had Clint drive me because I was scared I was going to have a complete melt down and not be able to drive home. I told him to go somewhere because I was going to be there for a while. Well 45 minutes after Clint leaving I was calling him telling him to come pick me up because I was already done. I didnt know what to think because of how little of time it took me. Anyway, long story short, I passed and now am working at the American Fork Hospital in the Emergency Department loving every minute of it.

Clint's Elk hunt from last August.

2011-08-03T21:26:00.001-07:00

Last August Clint drew out for his Limited Entry Elk hunt. I decided That I would go and see what the obsession was all about. Clint's dad and his brother Nathan came to help. We did a lot of hiking and yes I complained slightly but overall it was a really good experience. It was so fun on the last hike before we found the Elk that Clint wanted. We were walking on one of the trails, and of course we aren't talking because you have to be quiet to not scare away the Elk and we came upon approximately 100 cow elk. I have never been so startled. I was scared we were going to get trampled because when you turned to look up the hill it was covered in Elk. I had to fight every urge to scream. Anyway of course we didnt want to have them run the way we were going so Ralph, Clint's dad picked up a rock and threw it the way we were going so the Elk would go the other way. As the Elk Went up the hill we proceeded up the mountain and Clint and his dad went ahead of me and Clint because they could hear some Elk calling. Me and Nathan had to sit there and just listen. It had been about 15 min when we heard Clint shoot and I freaked out because I wanted to be next to him when he shot. Anyway we heard a few more shots go off and Nathan looked at me and I seriously was so excited. We waited a little longer to go up over the hill to see clint and ralph but when we did Clint was beaming he was so excited. The Elk was across a meadow and Covered in mud because it had just been in a Waller or something. ANyway we celebrated and called the crew to come help bring the Elk back to camp.

The actual skinning of the Elk was not something I wish to relive because they accidentally punctured the stomach or bowel I cant remember and it was the most fowl smell I have ever smelled. The hike back in the dark was quite cheerful because the wait had been lifted of whether or not we were going to go home with out a Elk. Now we are just waiting for it to get mounted and I am looking forward to when I get to go kill me a Spike Elk for more meat.

Until next time.

2011-01-13T19:20:00.001-08:00

Not an exciting update but at least I did it. There will hopefully be some updates in the near future with births on new nieces and nephews, hopefully news of passing the NCLEX!!! And other wonderful happening in the Spencer household. I have some cute pics of my baby that I need to post. (my baby being my dog Brutis) he is so big and cute and he is my world as of right now until I actually talk Clint into letting my have a kid. But that must wait until I am done with school. ANyway until next time.

Overdue UPDATE!

2011-01-13T18:48:00.000-08:00

Well it has been way too long since I have update this blog. I usually find something I would rather do more to be honest. I really have just been busy with school, work, life and family. Well the holidays were great,a little depressing ans usuall with not having my dad around. We had fun with family and friends. Over the last little while (the space of me not blogging) we have had many andventures and created many memories. The most important update is that we bought a house just over a year ago, and I havent put up any pictures because I wanted to have the yard done and maybe some decorations or something but I have a few I will share. MOre to come when it is spring or summer and I can take some of the outside with the cute new yard and without stupid snow covering everything.

Another Missionary!!!!!!

2009-07-31T17:52:00.000-07:00

Well It is here again. Another brother on a mission. I didnt think that Devin would ever be old enough to go on a mission. I mean for heaven sake he is my little brother. They are not supposed to grow up. I am actually so excited for him. He is going to Tulsa Oklahoma. I didnt think that I would be as sad as I was when he left. He and I never really got along. Actually we did, but man did we know how to fight and be really ruthless to eachother. I love the kid so much and am so proud of him for making the right decision. I am actually really jelous of him, due to the fact that he is going to be so blessed and many other wonderful experiences are just a minute away. The new system and the MTC is brutal by the way. It is a good thing but it is like tearing a band-aid off super fast. Painful but fast. We got out of the car and they told us we had thirty seconds for our good byes. I had time for a picture and then I turned around to give him a hug and they had taken him away. My mom and I had our little breakdown in the car. It is rough saying goodbye to the bro for two years. Good thing I have a lot to keep me occupied.

Catch Up!

2009-07-31T17:46:00.001-07:00

So just a little catch up since I have been so busy and have not been able to update my blog.
1st off, I found out that I was accepted to the Nursing program at UVU. I had been so nervous to apply because of the fear of being regected. I finally over came my fears and finally got the grades I needed. I applied and who would have guessed but I finally accomplished a pretty big goal. My dad always used to tell me that those who gave up got no where in life and he was right. I am so glad that I didnt give up because I am finally going to be able to start doing something that I have wanted to do all my life and I will be able to get out of a dead end job. Just before my dad died I promised him that I would accomplish this goal and I finally feel like I can be proud of myself. Not just for my dad, but for myself and my wonderful husband who has been so supportive through this whole process and how horrible I become when I am stressed because I want to get the best possible grades. Yay for the next two years.

2009-05-11T09:08:00.000-07:00

My mother-in-law Cindy, bought all of us daughter-in-laws tickets to wicked for christmas. I was so excited I was counting down until the very day. We decided to make it an event and do dinner and the whole ten yards. We went to the Olive Garden for dinner and then we went and took many many pictures in front of Capitol theather. The production was everything I hoped it would be. I havent had that much fun in a long time. I laughed so hard I actually cried. If you havent been to wicked I highly recommend it. Well we all had a great time, and I hope that we get to do something like this again soon. Thanks Cindy for such a great night.

Spring Fun!

2009-04-27T11:54:00.000-07:00

Clint and I decided to go fly kites one weekend because it was super windy and we were super bored. I had just bought these kites for when nieces and nephews come over. It ended up being tons of fun. Good cheap activity for couples on a budget.

Hubby and me Tag...

I was tagged with this little diddy so lets see how it goes.

♥ What are your middle names? Clint R. and Morgan Peine

♥ How long have you been together? 1 year 7 months

♥ How long did you know each other before you started dating? We actually knew who eachother were pretty much our whole lives. We have gone to the same school always, but our first date was the first time we really talked to eachother.

♥ Who asked who out? He asked me out I guess. Well his best friend kind of set us up on a date since Clint had just gotten home from his mission. I actually had a boyfriend at the time. His friend asked if I would go if Clint called me and asked me out. I said I would and boy am I glad because I found the man of my dreams!

♥ How old are each of you? Clint is 23 I am 22

Whose siblings do/ did you see the most? I would say mine, My family gets together alot especially now that my father has passed away. We are a really close family and lets admit it my family is pretty much the only friends that I have really always been close to.

♥ Do you have any children together? NO. we both decided that it would be best to wait a few years to have kids. I mean we didnt date for very long before we got married so we need our time to get to have time for just us. Maybe in 3-4 more years.

♥ What about pets? None, I want a dog so bad my teeth hurt but it is just not in the question until we get our own house.

♥ Which situation is the hardest on you as a couple? Not having the same hobbies, which coincides with money! He has so many hobbies and they all seem to cost an arm and a leg. Oh well still love him. Especially when it is his idea to take me shopping because then he cant get mad at me for buying lots of new clothes. YAY!

♥ Did you go to the same school? Yes we did, elementary through high school. Weird that we were never friends through out that time. I guess we were in the same english class in 9th grade.

♥ Are you from the same home town? Yes we are. We grew up like 5 blocks from eachother. We had mutual friends. again why we werent friends? I sure am glad we are friends now.

♥ Who is the smartest? I dont like this question because I want to say me but honestly sometines he blows me away with the information that he has stored in his head. I would say that I am definitely more book, and financial smart, he is so much smarter than me in every day common sense.

Who is the most sensitive? That would be me. I am usually not very sensitive, but there are certain situations that I get emotional pretty easy.

♥ Where do you eat out most as a couple? TACO AMIGO. I hate it so bad but his family does a taco amigo night were they go every monday. Sometimes, he will change it up and if it is a sit down resturant we go to Chilis. Heck yes Buffalo wings.

♥ Where is the furthest you two have traveled together as a couple? Oakland California

♥ Who has the craziest exes? I would say that it is probably a tie. He dated one person that I am not fond of and I dated one or two people that he is not fond of. probably because of the jelous factor, but both of us dated pretty normal people. If i had to chose I would say me.

♥ Who has the worst temper? I hate to say this out loud even though he knows it is true, It is Clint with out any arguement. That is one of our most common fights. I always tell him he needs to work on not getting angry so fast. I dont like raised voices.

Who does the cooking? Me, It is always me unless we are having tostadas then he cooks the shells because I suck really bad at making them.

♥ Who is more social? I would say that it is a tie. I am really outgoing and he is just a people person. We actually complement eachother well in this area.

♥Who is the neat Freak? That is so me. I get so mad at him because he doesnt put his clothes away right in his drawers and then I will have to fix it because he messes it up all the time and since i am the only one who folds laundry or puts it away I have to straighten his drawers every time. frustrating. When it comes to the bathroom I lose. I cant keep it clean to save my sole.

♥ Who is the more stubborn? That is definitely Clint. I give in all the time. I dont know what it is but for some reason I love the guy so much he seems to get whatever he wants. I always end up feeling guilty even when I shouldnt.

♥ Who hogs the bed? That is also Clint. I had to learn to put an extra blanket at the bottom of my bed because i would wake up in the middle of the night every night freezing because my sweet husband doesnt know how to hold still in his sleep and when he rolls he holds on to the blankets and takes them with him. drives me freaking crazy. Making the bed is the pitts for this reason.

♥ Who wakes up earlier? Depends. I wake up every morning that clint does to make his lunch but on weekends I am always the first to wake up.

♥ Where was your first date? Some Pizza place in Salt lake and then we saw a lazer show at the hansen planitarium. It was actually pink floyd

♥ Who has the bigger family? That award goes to me. I have 8 siblings, so a total of 9 kids, 8 are married, 12 nieces and nephews, one on the way. Clint has 3 other brothers all married and 4 nieces and nephews. If you count the pets that adds 2.

.♥ Do you get flowers often? Never, He bought them for me once but Honestly I would rather get Ice cream.

♥ How do you spend the holidays? We say that we switch but we actually end up doing both sides for every holiday unless I work then we usually end up on my side because my family does things later in the day and his family does them earlier.

♥ Who is more jealous? I am not sure. Clint cant stand when other guys talk to me but I get jelous of all the hobbies that he has and the friends he has that go with him. I dont have any hobbies that I can do other than shopping.

♥ How long did it take to get serious? Well we went on our first date, 4 days later he told me he loved me, and dont worry I didnt say it back yet because I still had a boyfriend but I said it about a week later. 3 months later we were engaged, 3 months after that we were married.

♥ Who does/ did the laundry? Me and only me. He always tries to drop suttle reminders to get his laundry done like I am running out of work pants are you going to do laundry soon. sometimes that really chaps my hide.

♥ Who drives when you are together? He does. I dont think that he would ever let me drive. He is the man so he drives.

Well that wasnt so bad. We both look pretty good after that little survey. It is actually nice to see that there is a good balance between us. I love Clint tons, even though I just ragged on him pretty bad. Sometimes he knows how to push my buttons but I can hold my own. Good thing we both have a sense of humor. Happy Valentines Day Babe. Sorry no present this year.

Well I tag Britney, Paige, Skye, Mindy, Autumn, and Amanda if they see this.

2009-01-29T23:00:00.000-08:00

This is definitely one of my most favorite pictures. I just wanted to let every one see what a good husband I have. He is so good with kids. It is so fun to watch him interact and play with all the nieces and nephews on both sides of the family. One day we were all watching the Bee Movie and my nephew Nolan randomly went over to Clint and climbed into his lap to snuggle. Nolan loves Clint and the cutest part is that he calls him "Clink" because he cant quite say his T's. I guess I will have to have my own kids one day so that Clint can have this same kind of experience with his own child. Love it.

2009-01-29T22:48:00.000-08:00

My family does gingerbread houses every year for christmas. since we were all together every day for a week after my dads funeral we decided to all participate. It was so fun to see how they turned out.

Clint thought it would be funny to take a picture of me when I was concentrating really hard. He didnt want to help so all he did was take pictures of people trying to see if he could take the ugliest pictures possible. He thinks he is funny but what he doesnt know is that he is not. JK. As you can see I am focusing really hard on putting gloves on my gingerman.

look at the mess. We had to put down a table cloth because, admit it if you knew the peine family you would know that we are all a little accident prone and good thing we took preventative measures or else my moms table would have a frosting plaster that would have never come off. that frosting made my belly hurt for the rest of the night because I kept licking my fingers. YUCK!

2009-01-29T22:32:00.000-08:00

This is the familia practicing I know that my redeemer lives for my dads funeral. It is crazy to see how big my family looks from an outsiders view. THe song was easy here but let me tell you I didnt sing a single song at the funeral. So much for practicing. Good thing some of my brothers and sisters arent cryers.

Remembering Dad

2008-12-19T16:15:00.000-08:00

Well this week has been one of the hardest weeks I have ever gone through. I wanted to let everyone who didn't know him know that he is probably one of the greatest men. He was the best dad that anybody could ever ask for. He gave us values to follow and set up a great life for all of his children to lead. He was always there for us and was such an example in every way. The way he treated my mother is every womans dream. I will miss many things about him. The most being the calls to see if I am ok, or the funny jokes, that were really only funny to him. I will miss the arguments over the last Pepsi. It is funny the small little things that you realize meant so much to you. My dad went out of his way for each and every one of his children. He was always such a sucker for us to.
I am so glad for the leassons he taught me because now I can take them and apply them to my children someday and hopefully they will love and respect me as much as I did him. I could go on and on for days. My dad is and was loved by many. He will be more than missed and I cant wait until we get to be with him again. He has influenced many. And I hope that those people will always have a little peice of them in their hearts. He will be forever in mine even though he took a little of mine with him the day he passed.

I just wanted to make a quick little blurb about my dad. I just wanted to ask my friends and family to remember him in your prayers. He is not doing well at the moment and it is so hard to see him in this state. It is even harder to not have him home with us during this wonderful season. I love him so much and hope to get some pictures of him on here that are not of him in such a bad state. Ill keep the information updated on how he is.

2008-12-12T12:24:00.000-08:00

So I went over to my sister Rachelles house the other day and she showed me this letter that my niece Mallary wrote to her dad. I thought it was the cutest thing ever. I love to see how kids spell and her drawing at the bottom is trying to show her dad how cute she would look with the dog she asked for. I love my nieces and nephews.

2008-12-12T12:14:00.000-08:00

I was baby-sitting Sophie while Brooke and Billy went to go visit my dad in the hopsital and I caught a few pictures of her while clint and myself were making her giggle. I dont know if she was laughing cause of us or if it was because she was getting her but cleaned. All I know is she is one freaking cute baby. I have to post pictures of my brother and sisters kids because I am to stubborn to have any of my own at the moment.

2008-12-01T19:57:00.000-08:00

This is one of my favorite parts of all my christmas decorations. I havent had a way to hang up my stockings that I bought for Clint and myself. I finally have a fireplace to hang them from and It looks so cute. I cant wait to fill them.

2008-12-01T19:39:00.000-08:00

Well I decided to put the good ole christmas tree up yesterday and of course I had to beg my husband to help me. He didnt want to but of course I pulled the guilty card and the wonderful guy helped me. I cant do stuff at the top and with my family genes I was bound to fall on the tree or something. I have to admit I am nervous because I used my christmas tree, decorations, etc and I dont want them to get broken by the grandkids. Oh well it was worth it to see how pretty my tree is.
