  • #263 Good Plastic Surgery versus Bad Plastic Surgery with Dr. Nicholas Howland
    I don’t want to say to much about this blog, because it’s just a great one to listen to about what it take to be a plastic surgeon. People seem to get the wrong idea on what someone chooses this profession. It was easy for Dr. Howland one day while sitting in class at the University of Utah and his biology teacher gave an example of how putting a bandaid on something heals it…  and it clicked, that helping people is what he wanted to do in the medical field.
    SOme say surgeons are good for what they do, some say they are bad, make people, especially women look like something they shouldn’t For instance, Someone asked me If I was getting my augmentation for my husband, my response was true.. “NO, I’m doing it for me, because I feel self conscious with my looks” and really, it’s made me feel better about my body.
    Sitting down with Dr. Howland and speaking with him was like sitting down with the Van Gogh of the body.  It takes someone who can look at someone and truly give an honest opinion on your wants and needs.  He’s worked on Cheiloplasty, a cleft lip repair. and his hardest was a surgery for a new jaw… You will definitely have to listen to the podcast for how that’s done, it’s so incredible.
    Before pursuing his undergraduate degree at the University of Utah, Nicholas Howland successfully fulfilled a 2-year church mission to St. Petersburg, Russia. During that time, Dr. Howland was selected as the lead interpreter and coordinator for volunteer efforts in the world-renowned Hermitage Museum. This volunteer effort was during the 300-year celebration of the founding of St. Petersburg as a city, and Dr. Howland further developed a profound love and appreciation for art and the human form as he gave countless tours of the museum.
    A graduate of the University of Utah, he graduated cum laude with a degree in Business Administration and minors in Chemistry and Russian Literature. This was on top of the difficult pre-med pathway. He was early accepted into medical school at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston, Texas.
    Recently, Dr. Howland along with his 2 children and his girl friends 3 children planned a surprise for Penny, his girlfriend.  Taking a trip up the West coast,  picking out the best spots to ask Penny to be his wife.  I don’t want to  ruin how that went, so you will have to listen to the podcast.
    Really, I could go on about how amazing Nicholas Howland is. How he gave me back confiance after having 5 kids. How he respects his patients or just how genuine he AND his staff is to everyone who comes in. If you’re looking  or thinking about getting any work done, and you live in Utah, visit him!

  • Graduation day
    Another school year has come to an end. For that, it’s time for another one of our children to graduate. I ask myself almost daily, “ when did my kids grow up “ ? It’s sad to think that my children are not the little kids they use to be. They don’t want me to push them on a swing, chase them or tickle them and hear the little laugh as they can’t help bet be a hostage to me yelling “ Tickle Monster” ..: but I guess all fun and games must come to an end.
    Jacob graduates on June 3rd. and unlike Parris, Jacob actually gets to walk and have a ceremony for his graduation.
    Last year, Parris was cheated out of her graduation ceremony and not able to walk thanks to the wonderful virus that will not be mentioned.
    So, even with Jacob being the 2nd. one to graduate, this is all new to us. The cap and gown, listening to the valedictorians give speeches and wait 2 hours to hear Jacob’s name called. ( you know, because our last name starts with a Y and his class has 100’s of kids graduating) This senior year was hard. Not just for Jacob, but for all seniors. With the “pandemic “ happening, it seems not many kids were motivated to do anything. You had the option to go to in learning classes if your grades were good, or you could stay home and do your work remotely. That’s where the “laziness” can in. It was hard to get him out of bed, he’s stay up late and just not care! Found out 1/2 way through the school year he had a few packets to do and that’s where I because a mama bear. Making sure they were complete. Making sure work was turned in. Making sure he got enough class time so he didn’t have to do attendance school… and I’m going to say it… if I didn’t do all the nagging and pushing, he would not have graduated on time with his class… and what is really crazy, is that the kid is smart! He got all A’s … so pushing him like that was not only exhausting, it was dumb because it was over pure laziness.
    Jacob is planning on serving a mission for our church. He also wants to go to college at BYU in Hawaii. He’s working a full time job on top of training for Nationals for rugby. Busy kid!
    Needless to say, Devin and I are very proud of our kids. Making it through 2 crazy school years with all the crap going on, changes in the school system happening and managing to finish what’s important to move onto the next chapter of life.

  • #261 WiBargain.com surprise box!
    Side hustles are a priority when it comes to making a living. We do our fair share of them, from last year making Yardzee games to even this podcast. Making side money is essential.
    Years ago I bought 75 violins and violas. Shannon was un aware of this purchase till they showed up at the door. All boxed up with extra strings, tuner and case. We had then everywhere, under the beds in closets everywhere. Shannon wasn’t a fan of the purchase but once she saw the cost paired back she was excited, especially since we made triple off of what I paid.
    when it comes to buying things wholesale I’m no stranger to this either. I have imported my fair share of things and when it comes to buying from places that sale mystery packages I have done that too.
    brings us to my most recent purchase it’s from a website called Wibargains.com. Wibargains claims “Each box contains between 10-12 mixed items that are home, kitchen, tools, electronics or other general merchandise. 
    Some boxes we will include 1 surprise BONUS item worth over $200 MSRP. ”
    They of course want you to post about them especially if you get the said $200 value item. But as we do we will post anyway. We were let down when it comes to our box.. mainly because it didn’t hold up to what they said it would do. They claimed a premium Amazon box like what we ordered will come with 10-12 items. Ours came with 5. Yes five items. Then what we got wasn’t even close to what we paid for, retail value even though they say it is based off of new retail.
    I reached out to them let’s see what they have to say about their product. Update coming soon.

  • #260 The Amazing Courtney Earl
    Devin and Shannon Sit down with Courtney Earl.
    We had the privilege to sit down with Courtney Earl last week and talk about her! You know what? She’s pretty amazing!
    Courtney is a mom, wife, teacher and just because, she has opened up her home to kids to learn. She loves all things art and has made time out of her busy schedule to teach kids out  of her home. On top  of art, she really loves to make it fun for the kids. She includes story time.  In my mind, I think of it as a mini Summer Camp for kids to go to a few times a week… although learning about art, she  has the kids dig into their imagination  and draw what they are feeling! That to me is really neat AND you get to know what the child is thinking and how they are feeling.
    We have asked about art classes for older kids… well, not really older, but our son, Ethan loves art.  He really loves to draw and color, use pastels and loves drawing with outdoor chalk.  This is something that I think is right up Ethans alley. He can express hisself. What mood is he in? What is he thinking? What creativeness can he take out on that paper without mom looking over his shoulder asking  “Watcha drawing”
    We decided that when Courtneys summer classes open up, Ethan will be going.

  • Inspiration with Keith Mattix

    Inspiration comes from all kinds of places. the amazing thing is with all these many different places inspiration  can come fryour pet,  yes I said that i said your pet. om you would think it would come from When Shannon reads this she will think im a huge softy because i pretend not to like our dog. But when you have a pet like Bentley. As i am writing this Bently is trying to climb on the couch and licking Logans hand like it is candy. yeah that isnt the Inspiring part um Gross hahaha.

    Bentley is inspiring because no matter what he tries to talk to us and tell us what he wants. He is by far the most vocal dog we have ever had. when he needs to go out he comes over to us and tries his hardest to tell us he needs to go out.

    It’s pretty amazing when a pet can be completely annoying attempt to talk to us and inspire us to for things like to keep going his persistence is outstanding. He thinks he is telling us something although he isnt speaking english there seems to be some kind of connection that we do know what he is actually saying.

    He is funny. he comes up to us when he needs attention and tries to talk . it all comes out as growls and barks but he tries. He even has tried to say I love you. yes he has done pretty well at this.

    But now that i have talked how our dog inspires us here is a podcast with Keith Mattix a man that provides inspiration of his own for the masses.
