Update

Well I know that is has been a long time since my last post, but a lot has happened between the middle of april and now. I did graduate, got married, went on our honeymoon to Florida, went to a NCLEX class for a week in denver, helped for a week at church camp, went camping/4-wheeling for 4th of July weekend, studying my tail off and took my NCLEX. It has been a very exciting, at times stressful but overall a very fun past 4 months.

In the meantime I have been working at the "fruit stand" a couple days a week where I get to eat all the fresh fruits and veggies that I want which makes it totally worth it. It's a lot of work, but it will do me fine until I am placed with a nursing job where God calls me to be. I struggle at times with the thought of why I live in the one place in the United States with no nursing jobs because of a bad economy. BUT....all things work out for the good and I know God is preparing for me something greater then I can imagine right now.

I am enjoying being around all my family and friends that I grew up with and being married to the most positive, encouraging and kind-hearted man that I know. I don't even want to think about when my sister has to go back to school in August because I'll miss her too much. It is going to be very strange when she leaves and I stay here. For 5 years, I have left home about mid-august to join my friends and family in Oklahoma and this year I will be saying goodbye to Tracey. I'm sure a flood of emotions will hit about that time.

But for now, here are some WAY overdue pictures of our house after a lot of work and a TON of help.
