CALIFORNIA LICENSE!!!!
Thursday night Spencer and I drove up to Glendale (in LA) because Friday morning I was scheduled to take my California State Board Esthetics's Test. So we got to the hotel at about 11 pm and we were exhausted, little did we know it would be a long sleepless night. Do you know how scary hotels are in LA? I swear people were coming and going from their rooms all night. And being a light sleeper, and quite paranoid already didn't help.... so around 3 am I finally got to sleep to wake up at 6:30 to get ready to take my written test. When I got to the testing spot I had to wait in a line just to be moved to another line... then finally...I got my assigned computer and started my test. I got through it well enough, and when I was done I was told I'd have to wait until my Practical portion was finished to get my results...... so began the longest day of my life.....
I went back to the hotel room to find that my room key wouldn't work... so sadly I had to wake my sleeping Spencer to let me in. I decided to ease my stress by sleeping for another hour.... one hour turned in to 2...oops. We checked out of our hotel at 12, and headed back to the testing site for my practical.
California State Board is so bad at communication! Oh my goodness, there were 50 candidates w/ their models and no one knew where they were supposed to go or what we should be doing! Finally we were showed to our stations. Hour and a half later Spencer was beautiful with his facial, and full make up application with lash extensions (my man makes a pretty lady!!)
Then all the candidates were cattled into another room to find out their test results.... Talk about nerve racking!! The test results had two options: If you got less than 70 on your written you FAIL, if you got less then 225 on your practical you FAIL. If you pass both you get your licence handed to you right then and there. Mine was the first name called...... I stepped up to the counter and......... "Congratulations, you passed" I had to sign my name to verify I received my licence, in my entire life I've never forgotten how to spell my own name until that moment. Licence in hand, I ran through the parking lot to my Spencer and we jumped for joy giggling like little girls!!!
It feels so good to finally have a License again! Hopefully my spa will start me on the floor soon! I can't wait to start doing what I love again!!

Weekend Adventures
This past weekend Spencer had the opportunity to be a Groom's Man in one of his mission companion's weddings! EXCITING, I know. Crazy thing about all of this is, I used to work with the bride in Rexburg at Sage! She was a massage therapist and I remember days in the back room talking about her missionary and how much longer till he got home and all the little stories that go along w/ waiting for a missionary!! Hello small world.... so while I slaved away at work Spencer got to be apart of all of the wedding fun!! Luckily I got off work in time to ride up to LA with my boo. We had a great time at the reception! There was AMAZING food, adorable kids, and old friends to see. I got to meet Spencer's mission president and his wife. They were absolutely adorable!!
Then Sunday Spencer's Aunt Pattie and Uncle Frank were in town visiting his cousins and we got to spend the whole afternoon together! I ADORE them!! Pattie cracks me up! We enjoyed the time we got to spend with them even though it was short!! Love them. Miss them!
AND THEN....... For FHE with our Ward we went to the PADRES game! We had soo much fun! We spent part of the game watching... but mostly we were just throwing things at people like: Swedish fish, sour patch kids, peanuts, popcorn, paper airplanes... pretty much anything we could find! SO much fun!
Me and my Boo
Love her!

Spencer, Spencer, La, La, La
The following post is dedicated to MY MAN.
With my Mom having surgery and being bed ridden, my Dad trying to take care of her, working full time, teaching online classes and being Bishop, and me working 6 days a week and preparing for my state boards- needless to say things have been chaotic at the Oels' house!
But lucky, lucky, me I have the most caring, understanding, loving, stress-free boyfriend any girl couldn't even dream up!! Spencer is so perfect!! When I'm stressed and whining and complaining and just being a brat MY man is there by my side doing everything to settle me down and bringing me back to reality. He is constantly striving to make my life easier; whether its making me a quick snack, bringing me ice water the way he knows I LOVE it, sneaking away and doing the dishes while I'm napping or racing me to the gas pump to pay before I can. Its amazing how the little things add up to so much. I am so blessed that I am able to everyday fall more and more in love with my best friend.
LUCKY ME!

MOVING!!!
With my 23rd birthday passing I have been thinking more and more about what I'm doing with my life.... I realize I keep getting older and its about stinking time I grow up and go off on my own. With this being said I have decided to MOVE OUT! It's true, starting August 1st I will be living on my own.. okay so not exactly on my own persay.... I'm moving in with 5 other girls!! Just like the good 'ol days at Tuscany, but thank heaven the rooms are larger (My gina's know what i'm talkin about). I'm so excited to be making this move! I will be sad to leave home because I love my parents so much and I'm so grateful for all they do for me. I will also have to leave my little Max behind *tear*. The good thing about it is I'm only moving about 15 minutes from my parents house, so you best believe I'll be hitting up my parents w/ spencer for Sunday dinners and laundry days!!!
I'm so excited to finally live with girls again! It will definitly be much different than before seeing as my roommates will be 18,19,20 and 21. So many different dynamics!! I'm so excited to learn and grow with these girls!
The best part is my "COUSIN" EMILY is going to be moving in with me!!!! She and I have talked about wanting to move in together for over 5 years! Finally its happening! I can only imagine the madness that will come of this!!
Another great thing about the move is i will finally be closer to my SPENCER! Currently Spencer lives in Tierrasanta which is about 20-25 minutes away from my house..... I know this doesn't seem like that far but when it's 11 o'clock and Spencer is falling asleep driving home its a big deal! Luckily my new house is only 7minutes away from Spencers (we timed it)!!! Also I will be closer to work! I'm going to love that extra 5 minutes i get to sleep in now!!!
I am feeling absolutely great about this change I get to experience! I know that the Lord works in mysterious ways and I know he is putting my in this house for more than just my progression. I'm so excited to get to know Michelle, Haley, Jessica, Emily and Nameless girl more each day!!!
ps. my 4th of July was fabulous- Update and pictures to come.
pps. My mom just underwent her 5th hip replacement surgery, please keep her in your prayers.
ppps. I love and miss all my GINA's & my Ptown 5th Floor girls sooooooo much and I hope you are all doing well.
