Christmas time.......

Well today I went and bought a tree since I was feeling better.....when I got home Chris helped get it out of the car (which has sap and pine needles all over the trunk now lol)...we then put it in the stand and Chris (with very little coercing) helped decorate it with lights and bulbs :) and this is the result I think it looks awesome :)

Final drive back from cali......

After I graduated Chris and I did our final drive back from California to Denver, we decided to take a different route this time so that he could visit his friends that lived in Arizona. While we were in Arizona the only thing that Chris wanted to do is to get his pic taken with a big cactus lol so we definitely made sure that happened....he was so happy it was cute. After we left Phoenix we took a drive through Sedona....cause Chris and I have always wanted to see it.....it was stinking cold there but pretty with all the red rocks :) While we were in Phoenix Chris got to sit on his friends motorcycle....he was so cute lol

Graduation.......

On December 11th 2008 was my pinning ceremony/graduation from the nursing program. The past two years (that I was in the program) have been especially hard for me........mostly due to the fact that I had to be away from my hubby for most of that time only being able to come home in between the semester. Nursing school is very stressful and hard enough with out adding new stressful events to it. Well I finally got through it there were lots of tears throughout the last two years, whether it was due to stress of classes and 50% finals lol or cause I missed my hubby and wanted to come home. I made lots of friends during school most of who I hope we can stay in touch with for a long time. I will miss them alot. I feel like the last two years have flown by especially this last semester, at times (99.9%) I feel that I did was go to class, clinic, and then study, which in reality that is all that I did.....you have no life during nursing school so you have to make your own fun which we did....you can see some of the fun we had in the slideshow I will put up. If I had it all to do over again, yes there would be some things that I would do different but I wouldn't have given up this experience for anything.....many of you that know me now that I have wanted to be a nurse forever (alot to do with my mom).....all I need is my state license but I am finally a nurse!!!!!!

First snow of the winter......

So when I woke up on Saturday and found that there was snow on the ground....I was so excited I love snow and I was totally happy that it snowed while I was out here :) So I snapped some pics enjoy.....

I just wanted to wish everyone a happy thanksgiving....I am thankful that I get to be in Denver with my hubby for Thanksgiving :) Chris and I are gonna just have a small little Thanksgiving here with one of his friends and his bro.....if I take any pics I will probably post them :)

So here I am...........

Ok so it is Monday the week of Thanksgiving......I took my 4th exam in my critical care nursing class and got a "B" on it which it totally acceptable to me this semester....I have learned to chill a bit and to accept B's :) So after I took the test I proceeded to drive up to Sacramento so that I can catch a flight out to Denver where I get to spend this lovely Thanksgiving week. I am so excited to be going home for a week and getting to see Chris and my friends that are there. I get to do alot of fun stuff this week...although I do need to study some also cause as soon as I get back next week I have a test in leadership and then the next week is finals week....and then GRADUATION!!!!!! if you cant tell I am very excited about that I am so ready to be done :)

Ok so the pic really doesnt have any purpose to my blog but I think it is hilarious so hopefully whoever actually reads my blog will get a chuckle lolol :)

Last week rotation.......

sorry it has been along time since I posted anything.....it has been insanely busy with school :) Finals are fastly approaching getting alittle worried about them. This week is my last week in my ICU rotation...surprisingly I actually like my ICU rotation I didnt think I was gonna like it when the rotation started, all those tubes and lines going to the patient and the patients are really sick. But I do enjoy it. Like last Friday we had to call a code blue on my patient and I got to do chest compressions and push medication during the code.....it was very busy in the room is the easy way to put it :) I might actually wanna work as an ICU nurse after I get alittle experience first.....well I will try to be better about posting.
