Here are some pictures of the inside of the lungs as well as a heart cut in half.
Well that's all that Brittany could stomach me showing you but I hope you enjoy the pictures, I know that I had a really fun time taking them.

Graphic Content
Hey everyone, I know it has only been a few days since Brittany's last post but I had a really fun day at school and i couldn't wait to show off the pictures. We got to cut open the heart and lungs of a lamb...poor lamb. This one shows some really cool things so I'll show it first.

Busy.Busy.Busy
Before I met Shawn I knew he was pretty handy but in the past couple of weeks/months I have found out that he's even more crafty then what I had imagined. I have given him a couple of projects and somehow he has managed to finish them in the little time that he does have...because he is awesome!! We have a couple of tables that we got after we moved into the house and I wanted to update them to look like the rest of our furniture in the house.
Here is Shawn sanding everything down
Here is the finished product in our living room
Yep...I love it!
Another project we had before summer hit was organizing the garage. Our garage was pretty organized to begin with but I really wanted to have shelves in our garage to put all of our stuff on, especially since the dog seems to get into everything!
Here is our garage before
Here is the garage after
And before these projects Shawn helped my parents redo all of their kitchen cabinets. My mom and I forgot to take pictures of all of the before/after. But I think everyone would agree that their kitchen looks so much better.
Yesterday was Sacramento's Museum Day and almost all of the museums in the area were free! Our cousin Ashley had her baby shower (I got NO pictures!) and after that Shawn and I headed down the Aeronautics airport museum on McClellan AFB. I used to live next to an air force base so it was really cool to see what all of the planes look like. We even got to sit in a fighter jet. The guy there said it was the fastest plane there...it was pretty cool and we got a great deal since usually it would have cost us $40 to get in!
And just for fun here is an updated picture of Hurley...as I said in the previous post he is getting so BIG! But we love him, he is such a fun little dog!

VACATION
So i'm ready for a vacation...anybody with me?
Life has been crazy lately! Weird crazy though...Boring everyday life crazy...I promise i'll get pictures up soon! Shawn's dad retired from San Quentin...I finally got to see where Scott Peterson is...(I know i'm a freak)...Shawn is studying drugs and learning way more then I ever possibly could...School started and i'm wondering why I have NEVER taken online classes before because they seriously ROCK! Everybody in the world is pregnant but seriously Hurley is enough for a VERY long time (Just in case you all were wondering!) He is getting SO big and I MISS him being a cute little puppy that I can carry everywhere I go...but I LOVE that I can now run with him...(Not that I do it often enough!) But we are still alive here in Elk Grove...I WILL get some updated pictures of all of the FUN things that we've been doing...I know you all miss us!

Christmas
So Christmas this year was so much fun and I'm really bummed that I am so horrible at taking pictures! I had the best of intentions and had my camera with me all weekend but actually pulling it out and taking pictures is another story.
Christmas Eve day we went over to the Lemon's house and met up with the rest of the family. It's not very often that we are all together so of course we had to get a picture of all of us! That night we did the progressive dinner and started out at Cody and Kat Lewis' house (Shawn's aunt and uncle) for appetizers, Shawn's parents for the main dish and then Todd and Val Lewis' (Shawn's other aunt and uncle) for program and dessert. The program was great and consisted of Kat singing Oh Holy Night, she has an AMAZING voice, saying what we were grateful for from 2008 and drawing names and saying nice things! I LOVE getting everyone together for Christmas and it was really nice to have my parents there as well! Then we came back home and got our Christmas presents and Hurley all packed up and headed to my parents to spend the night. Billy also tagged along and we all stayed up and watched Christmas Vacation. I have to say that in true Brittany form I fell asleep halfway into the movie and I really don't know why it was such a big deal that I hadn't seen it before?!?! Christmas morning was AWESOME and I have to say that we finally pulled one over on my dad. He really wanted a Jack Lalanne Juicer and so we went to Walmart and bought one of those old fashioned juicers and wrapped it up and let him believe that it was the juicer that we bought him. My dad is so nice that he actually said, "Oh this is just what I wanted." What a great dad!! So we let him go on believing that was it and while he was out of the room we pulled out the real juicer, put it on the counter and then wait and see how long it would take him to notice it. Well my mom couldn't hold the secret went right up to him, did some eye thing and he saw it. Let's just say that i'm pretty sure he will be putting some good use to it. Yesterday alone he used it like 3 times. The rest of the day was spent relaxing and then heading over to Brent and Theresa's house (Shawn's other aunt and uncle) and having Christmas dinner with the family. It was a great Christmas and I'm always so sad when it's all over...especially when I don't have any pictures!! But I do have to say that both sides are awesome and even got Hurley a little something! I am so grateful for my family and I can't believe that the year is almost over! This year has been filled with some amazing memories and I can't wait to see what 2009 has in store for us! Shawn and I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and have a great New Year!
The Lemon Family
Kamay- Our niece (Shawn's brother Nick and sister-in-law Ashley's daughter)...isn't she adorable? Shawn kept saying say cheese and look at the camera...needless to say she is an energetic 2 year old and I can't believe how big she is getting!

Beautiful People
So you know those people that are BEAUTIFUL like their whole lives? They never go through an awkward teenage, high school phase thing? Yeah I totally don't know what that feels like! HAHA...I went through not one, not two but MULTIPLE awkward phases and sometimes I feel like i'm still going through one! Shawn and I were cleaning out one of our spare bedrooms and I came across a roll of film. I didn't know what or when it was from so I took it to Walgreens and had it put on a CD and found some funny pictures from a vacation my family took when I was in middle school. Please feel free to enjoy a couple of laughs on me! I am so grateful for my family. We seriously had some of the best times together!
P.S. I had more that Shawn was laughing out but I think those were WAY too embarrassing so I guess the few will have to get you by until I feel like embarrassing myself again!

Paramedic School
So for those of you that don't know Shawn is in paramedic school! When he first got accepted I kind of figured it would just be a little bit different then what he does as an EMT but everything else would pretty much be the same. Well I was wrong...way wrong. He is insanely busy. He not only goes to school on Tuesdays and Fridays all day but he works on the days in between that, goes out and works at the Fire Department on Friday nights and then all of the other nights he's up until at least midnight studying for all of the tests that he has. It's honestly really insane and i'm really glad that it's him and not me! Well they have also started doing injections and IV's. There was a time when I thought I wanted to join the medical field and possibly be a nurse...well I decided against it and now I am reminded why. I'm a little weirded out about needles....especially when I am the one that's putting it into people. So Shawn and his paramedic friends got to practice on each other and it resulted in some pretty funny/disgusting pictures. The guy that was putting an IV in Shawn I guess did something a little wrong because blood came squirting out and there was pretty much blood all over Shawn's arm...yeah I totally couldn't handle it! But I am so proud of Shawn and all that he's accomplishing. I can't believe how much he is learning already! So here are some pictures for your viewing pleasure...we try to keep it PG on here...so none of them are TOO bad...plus most of you probably have much stronger stomaches then me! Yes...I know I am weak sauce. Next week they start on foot and possibly neck IV's...yeah and I thought this was bad! Until next time have a wonderful day!
