1. A method of assembling a turbine assembly, said method comprising: integrally forming a transition nozzle comprising a transition piece that defines a transition portion and further comprising a turbine nozzle that defines a turbine nozzle portion as a first stage nozzle;positioning at least one surface feature consisting of at least one of a protrusion or an indentation to transfer heat away from the turbine nozzle portion, wherein the turbine nozzle portion having a cold side surface opposite a hot side surface includes the at least one surface feature formed or attached on the cold side surface;orienting the transition portion to channel combustion gases towards the turbine nozzle portion; andorienting the turbine nozzle portion to channel the hot combustion gases towards a turbine bucket at a predefined angle. 2. A method in accordance with claim 1, wherein integrally forming the transition nozzle further comprises integrally forming the transition nozzle to include a combustion liner portion such that the combustion liner portion, the transition portion, and the turbine nozzle portion forms a unitary component, wherein the combustion liner portion at least partly defines a combustion chamber of the turbine assembly, and wherein the transition portion is oriented to channel combustion gases from the combustion liner portion. 3. A method in accordance with claim 2, wherein positioning at least one surface feature further comprises providing a first surface feature on a surface of the combustion liner portion, a second surface feature on a surface of the turbine nozzle portion, and a third surface feature on a surface of the transition portion, wherein the at least one surface feature includes the first surface feature, the second surface feature, and the third surface feature. 4. A method in accordance with claim 1, wherein positioning at least one surface feature further comprises integrally forming the at least one surface feature with the transition nozzle. 5. A method in accordance with claim 1, wherein positioning at least one surface feature further comprises coupling the at least one surface feature to a surface of the transition nozzle. 6. A method in accordance with claim 1, wherein positioning at least one surface feature further comprises machining the at least one surface feature into a surface of the transition nozzle. 7. A transition nozzle for use with a turbine assembly, said transition nozzle comprising: a transition piece defining a transition portion;a turbine nozzle defining a turbine nozzle portion as a first stage nozzle, said turbine nozzle portion having a cold side surface opposite a hot side surface integrally formed with said transition portion, wherein said transition portion is oriented to channel combustion gases towards said turbine nozzle portion, and wherein said turbine nozzle portion is oriented to channel the combustions gases towards a turbine bucket at a predetermined angle; andat least one surface feature consisting of at least one of a protrusion or an indentation formed or attached on the cold side surface of said turbine nozzle portion and configured to transfer heat away from said turbine nozzle portion. 8. A transition nozzle in accordance with claim 7 further comprising a combustion liner portion integrally formed with said transition and turbine nozzle portions to form a unitary component, wherein said combustion liner portion at least partly defines a combustion chamber of the turbine assembly, and wherein said transition portion is oriented to channel combustion gases from said combustion liner portion. 9. A transition nozzle in accordance with claim 8, wherein said combustion liner portion is configured to receive a fuel and air mixture at a plurality of locations along an axial length of said combustion liner portion. 10. A transition nozzle in accordance with claim 8, wherein said combustion liner portion, said turbine nozzle portion, and said transition portion each comprise said at least one surface feature. 11. A transition nozzle in accordance with claim 7, wherein said at least one surface feature is integrally formed with at least one of said transition portion and said turbine nozzle portion. 12. A transition nozzle in accordance with claim 7, wherein said at least one surface feature is coupled to a surface of at least one of said transition portion and said turbine nozzle portion. 13. A transition nozzle in accordance with claim 7, wherein said at least one surface feature is machined into a surface of at least one of said transition portion and said turbine nozzle portion. 14. A turbine assembly comprising: a fuel nozzle configured to mix fuel and air to create a fuel and air mixture; anda transition nozzle oriented to receive the fuel and air mixture from said fuel nozzle, said transition nozzle comprising:a transition piece defining a transition portion;a turbine nozzle defining a turbine nozzle portion as a first stage nozzle, said turbine nozzle portion having a cold side surface opposite a hot side surface integrally formed with said transition portion; andat least one surface feature consisting of at least one of a protrusion or an indentation formed or attached on the cold side surface of the turbine nozzle configured to transfer heat away from said turbine nozzle portion,wherein said transition portion is oriented to channel the combustion gases towards said turbine nozzle portion, andwherein said turbine nozzle portion is oriented to channel the combustions gases towards a turbine bucket at a predetermined angle. 15. A turbine assembly in accordance with claim 14, wherein said transition nozzle further comprises a combustion liner portion integrally formed with said transition and turbine nozzle portions to form a unitary component, wherein said combustion liner portion at least partly defines a combustion chamber of the turbine assembly, and wherein said transition portion is oriented to channel combustion gases from said combustion liner portion. 16. A turbine assembly in accordance with claim 15, wherein said combustion liner portion is configured to receive the fuel and air mixture at a plurality of locations along an axial length of said combustion liner portion. 17. A turbine assembly in accordance with claim 15, wherein said combustion liner portion, said turbine nozzle portion, and said transition portion each comprise said at least one surface feature. 18. A turbine assembly in accordance with claim 14, wherein said at least one surface feature is integrally formed with at least one of said transition portion and said turbine nozzle portion. 19. A turbine assembly in accordance with claim 14, wherein said at least one surface feature is coupled to a surface of at least one of said transition portion and said turbine nozzle portion. 20. A turbine assembly in accordance with claim 14, wherein said at least one surface feature is machined into a surface of at least one of said transition portion and said turbine nozzle portion.
