YEAH! I PASSED MY NURSING BOARDS! Never again do I want to take these.
I had to work this morning from 7A-7P and so I was constantly checking online every 10 minutes. Of course, immediately after I checked and saw no status change, John texted me and told me that the website looked "very interesting." Great, now I'm more nervous than ever! What is that suppose to mean?! I checked with my preceptor and after we saw the computer screen, we were both caught jumping for joy and screaming in the middle of the hospital rotunda. She made me name tags, banners, etc. Everyone was great, my patients shared in my joy, and we just had an awesome day at work. I couldn't have asked to find out in a better way! John must be my good luck charm ;)

I'm still kickin'
I am still here, after this long, possibly needed, blog break. Things have been flying so fast and I can't believe we are at the end of March already. John and I have been doing great. We went skiing again towards the end of January, went to visit his sister in DC and did some sight seeing. I'll just post a few pictures from DC as well as Valentines. (yeah I know, it's pretty late...)
We toured the Holocust Memorial which took 2 1/2 hours to tour. It was amazing to see articles of clothing, videos, and items taken from the Jews. Your mind hurt with all the reading but yet you couldn't stop reading. It was so captivating.
Pictures from Valentines Day with the Proffitts. We had an awesome time. The boys surprised us by taking us to Characters in Lancaster. The food was great and so was the company :) We finished the night at Annie Baileys in the lounge. It was a wonderful night.
I took my nursing boards on Friday and am still anxiously awaiting to hear the results. I had the minimum number of questions, 75/265. When that computer screen went blue, my heart sank! I didn't know what to think.... Fortunately, I feel like an elephant has been lifted off my chest and I can finally get to the long awaited projects I want to accomplish around the house. This entire weekend, John and I NEEDED to clean the office. It literally took us the entire weekend, but I can actually see the floor again. It's a beautiful thing!
We also attended a conference Friday and Saturday at our church. It was called Raising Truly Great Kids. It is a faith based way of raising children and has to do with how to parent with Grace. It was very interesting and our church was packed. There were probably about 2,000 people there just from around the area.
Oh, and I can't forget our first dinner party.... We hosted John's office for their "late Christmas" party. John cooked steaks and potatoes, vegetables, salad from Olive Garden and I made my specialty mango martinis. YUM! Needless to say, I think everyone had a great time... maybe took much fun with our Christmas gifts from the guys. We'll leave it at that... Anyway, here is a picture of my table. Just to point out my bargain of the day, John and I went to William Sonoma in search of nothing that we really needed. I found these chargers that matched my side plates perfectly! They were originally $22/plate and I got them for $1.99/plate! You can't beat that price! I sucked up 12 of them right away!
