So if anyone even reads this you will be an absolute ANGEL if you can help me out!! :) I will leave you with this picture of my pup who makes me soo stinking happy! I just love my pixi doodle! :)

Just a quick update!

Man I think I officially suck at posting that is for sure! But I just wanted to give a quick update on my life as of late!

In January I celebrated my birthday and started up school again. My birthday was so great and always is, even if I don't do anything! I love it. Then I started up school. This was going to be my second to last semester before I applied for the Occupational Therapy Assisting program but I decided to just keep going and do my pre reqs for the actual therapy program, so I have quite a few semesters to go!!!

In feburary I have just been dating like CRAZY, and now I am kind of dating someone again and it is sooo fun! I am doing work and school, so that pretty much takes up my WHOLE life, I have been so busy with work and cross training over into PACU, and school because math just officially sucks! I hate it, and it has been taking over my life lately! Well that is pretty much it, I am pretty boring I know, so that is why I don't post very much! When more things get exciting I may post later haha!!! Hope everyone is doing well, with the wonderful thing called LIFE!!!! much love!! :)

So much to be thankful for!!

Well since it's been a decade since I have posted I will share what is on my mind! I have a lot on my mind so prepare yourselves!!!! I apoligize in advance as well, that my camera charger is lost, so I can't charge my camera to get the pictures on the computer! So this will just be a post full of words!!!!
Alright since today is Thanksgiving I though today might be a great day to express what is on my mind and what I am truly grateful for in my life. I just want to start off with my parents, they have sacrificed so much for me in my life, it is truly un real. I don't know how I got so blessed to have parents that have done so much for me health wise, physically, emotionally, and mentally. Even though we have our MAJOR differences and points of views, I don't know where Iwould ever be without them. They have been through so much with their kids as far as physically, and emotionally, I don't know how they do it. I hope I have the strength they do one day when I am a mother.
Second I am truly greatful for those families that have TRULY loved me for me, despite my faults and problems that I may have. I am so grateful to these families that have invited me in their home and had me as apart of their family. It's amazing how you find out how much someone knows you when they do something for you because they know that it will make you happy! Half of the families that have "adopted" me in to theirs just know that I have struggled with my own family and they know just how much I love being around people, and the "family" enviroment. I love those families more then anything, they know who they are. There have been families that honestly I feel like I have been walked all over, and just kinda there because I chose to go over. I have learned a lot from those experiences and those families but I am grateful for the ones that have stuck by my side through thick and thin!
I am truly grateful for the friends that I have. There are friends that I have had for a life time that once again love me for me, and for who I am, and not for what I do or say. I have learned so much from these people and from their examples. I don't know where anyone would be if they didn't have friends, and I have been truly grateful for the TRUE ones that I have made in my life.
I am defenitely eternally grateful for the gospel, I really have no idea where I would be without it. It has brought me happiness where I KNOW I will never ever find anywhere else. I am so grateful for the teachings and convinents. I am grateful that I have something to follow in my life, and to have someone that will always love me no matter my looks, bad days, good days, faults, mistakes, e.t.c. I know that when I got baptized four years ago it was the best descion I have made in my life thus far. I love the gospel more then anything int his world. Even though it has brought some major termoil in my life I know that one day it will all work out the way its suppose to!
I am very grateful for the experiences that I have had in my life to make me the person that I am today. I am grateful for the relationships that I have been in because they have helped me know what I want in my future life, and what I dont want. I am grateful for the surgries that I have gone through because they show me how fragile life is, and that we should NEVER EVER take it for granted. I am grateful for the emotional challanges that I may have gone through in my life because like I said before it has made me the person I am today and just made me feel so blessed for the wonderful life that I have been provided!
Anyway that is my thankful post there really is SOOOO much to be thankful for, especially the little things like my job, getting an education, the warm house that my parents provide, a car to drive to get from here to there, a warm bed, medicine, doctors, and sooo much more! I love the life that I live and I love where I am at today. I have learned SOOO much in my life already and I can't wait to learn a lot more as I live my life. Happy thanksgiving everyone, I hope that it is a good one for you and that you got to spend it with those that you love!!!!

I know probably absolutely no one reads this but hey it's kinda nice to write what your feeling and get peoples feedback right! Haha

GUESS WHAT!!!!!!!

Ok get excited guys, I am alive, BARELLY!!! and best of all I am back into the blogging world, but there is so much to type it is going to take a bit to explain what happened this summer, so bare with me and I will give you the details!!! Yay I am so excited to start blogging again and catch up with my friends. P.s I do read your blogs but I obvioulsy haven't blogged in oh about a YEAR!!! Sooooooooooooo....................... STAY TUNED!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am alive! :)

Blogging??? What is that?!

Ok so I know it's been well over 6 months since I have blogged but I am trying to figure out some things before I do the 4 MILLION PAGE long post, so be ready, prepare yourself, for the life of SAMANTHA HANSEN in the past 6 months cause there is a lot!!! And yes I know my background is Halloween, that just shows how much I can not WAIT TILL Halloween!

I STILL BLOG DONT WORRY!!!!!

So I think that it has been along time since I have last blogged, oh wait no it's been FOREVER!!!!!!!!! So here I am trying to catch up on the last couple months of my life!! But just so you know it is a long post with lots of pictures so just prepare your self!!! Also I am a little bit retarded when it comes to blogging and I cant figure out how to move my pictures around and enlarge them so this what you are gonna get. Also one more thing sorry bare with me but it is going to be for the most recent happenings in my life to the oldest so here it goes!!!

I got accepted into Salt Lake community College and I will be starting May 18th with summer classes and I seriously can not wait because then I am that much closer to my career, which I am going into Pediatrics Occupational Therapy Assisting!! I seriously can not wait for this I will graduate in 3 years!!!!!

So last month Devin and Vanessa, the cute love birds invited me to go to a Jazz game so of course I gladly accepted that offer especially with how close we were to the court... But funny story actually Devin only had two tickets but the seat next to them is always empty so we thought it would be clever to buy a ten dollar ticket that was up in the nose bleeds and then I would just sit in that empty seat.. Well come to find out there is SOMEONE SITTING THERE.. so we were like great!! Well there were four empty seats in the row in front of them so we sat in those and it turned out great!! We obviously took a lot of pictures and some of them are crazy because we were just messing around! Thank you so much for taking me Vanessa and Dev I had a blast and I love you both! This was my third Jazz game I went to a ton this year!!!!

This was after the basketball game and we just wanted to take a crazy pic..

Just had to take a quick picture of Kyle and it was perfect cause the other guy was going in for a dunk so this picture turned out sweet!

This was during half time I think just a picture of us three!

Ok this picture is absolutely halarious!! Our faces are priceless!

Right before the game I don't know why this picture is like blue!

So back in March I went on a little road trip with my Lovely friend Shannon and her son Preston.. I guess it wasn't so little because we had to drive a total of 36 hours!! Now you are wondering where we went.. We drove out to Missouri because Shan's family lives out there and she needed a second driver to keep her company so I was like hey I will tag along so I did and it was an absolute blast! It was def a culture shock to me in a since that I have never stayed on a farm in my entire life.. It was very different to have to drive 20 minutes to just get to the city. I fed some cows and enjoyed LOTS of movies!!! Shan and I became really close and I really grew to love her family like my own I love them a lot!!! Once again i apoligise my pictures are from the end of the trip to the beginning!!

This was the drive home, I think that was harder than the drive out there because we were so exhausted and both times we drove through the night 18 hours!!!

So her family lives on a farm and they have this pond in the backyard and Shan and I decided to get their little paddle boat and take it out for a spin!

So out there you have to drive like 20 minutes to get into a city. So we decided to go into Springville and visit a place called Bass Pro (its a bigger version of Cabella's) It was fun we took a lot of crazy pictures!

They have like the largest Snapping turtle on display there it was huge!!!!

This was the first day we got there Shan and I were so exhausted we only got like 2 hours of sleep so we were just lazy all day. Well Sheena (Shan's) sister came over and they were listening to music on their lap tops so I felt a little left out so I of course I had to grab mine and they had to teach me how to use it cause I didn't know how.. gee thomas!!!

This is Shan at the Start of our LONG journey!!!

Preston, isn't he the cutest little kid in the world!!!!

So right before I left to Missouri I got a new car!!! It is a 2008 Nissan Altima!! I absolutely love it!!!! My other car was really breaking down and the repairs were just going to cost more money than the car its self so we traded it in! I am not gonna lie I miss my little roxy car because it was me, but I love this car a lot more!!!!

These are the girls I nanny we just wanted to take a picture in front my new car!!

Well there ya have it! That has been my Life in a nutshell the past 2 months!! It is amazing how many things can happen in one month or two months, or even four! I love where I am at today and I wouldn't wish anything else!!! I am so excited for this summer and to be starting school and living life!!! Also a couple of my closest friends are getting married or going on missions! Kara is getting married May 16th, Ashley is getting married June 19th, Chels is leaving on her mission May 6th and Chase is leaving on his mission July 1sth!! I am so excited for these guys and I could be happier for them!!! It will be weird to have my closest friends going different directions and I will miss them like there is no tomorrow but I am so excited for them all!!!
