Day 130-152! Eek!

Oh what a year this has been! :)
I haven't posted in almost a month. *epic fail* But I have a good reason. I got married on 12/11/10. It was fantastic and amazing and perfect, but I will write a whole post on that later. And then after the wedding we jetted off to Jamaica- no phones, no computers, no blog! haha! Then came Christmas. It snuck up on me and then ran away just as quickly. I also started up back at work. I'm officially off of orientation and on my own. It is exciting and scary all at the same time. I had two really good days around Christmas, when the census was low and I could get my bearings. Then I had one chaotic night. And last night was mildly chaotic at first and then slowed down. I hope tonight ends on a good note (with minimal freezing rain) so I can fly home and give my husband a kiss at midnight!

I'm back now! It is the last day of 2011 and oh what a crazy year 2010 was:
Graduating with my Besties
The last days with one of the best Grandma's ever.
Relaxing time spent up north
Being misdiagnosed and then "cured" of syringomyelia.
It was a year of weddings:
Briana and Shane, Beth and Matt, Amanda and Justin,
Mimi and Dan, and Me and Josh :)
(This is Mimi with Grandpa)
As the sun sets on 2010, there will be so many new beginnings in 2011!

Some things I look forward to in the new year:
  • Jodi and I kicking some major butt in our exercise challenge against Angie and Jason!
  • Going to my doula training (hopefully in April)
  • Getting a new vehicle *fingers crossed*
  • A potential Benitez wedding
  • All other new and exciting adventures for our first year as husband and wife!!!

Welcome 2011!

Day 128 and 129

4 Days!!!

So Sunday I went to the Packer game with my dad and Josh as an early wedding gift. The Pack won the game against the 49ers!!! We had an awesome, but insanely cold time. I was shivering for hours.

After the game I went over to Angie's and we made pew bows. They turned out awesome!!! I would post a picture of them but I didn't get a super shot. SO instead here is a picture of the almost finished product of my unity candle decorations. Angie is a crafting goddess! Everything is going to turn out so awesome!

I had my hair trial today and also practiced my make-up. It's going to be awesome!!!! :)

Day 124, 125, 126, and 127

Let's list it today:
1. I am such a slacker... I've been working and freakin' about getting wedding stuff done that I haven't posted in four days!

2. It doesn't look like this outside anymore. It is grass. The snow melted.... and the big snow storm we were supposed to get never came. We got nothing. I'm hoping for a miracle Thursday and Friday of this week, because the weather channel gives it a 40% chance..... *fingers crossed*

3. Work rocked last night. I had the best patients ever. Now I go back up to 9th floor, where I doubt my nights will be so laid back...

4. I'm going to the Packer game in 2.5 hours as a wedding gift from my parents! :) And then I'm going to go over by Angie and work on pew decorations.

5. Cam came over yesterday while Jess and I made programs. Cutest kid EVER! *Love*

6. I get married on Saturday!!!!!!!!

Go Pack Go!

Day 122 and 123


Happy December!!!
Happy 10 days left!!!
Happy me!!!!!

It's snowing! I know we might not get much, but hopefully this little bit will stick around to add to Saturday's accumulation we should be getting! My white wedding is closer to the truth now!

So I'm in the middle of my little working spree. I worked the last two days and will work tonight and tomorrow with Friday off. So far I'm liking my PM shifts. They are definitely a different pace than AMs.

I've also been doing tons of wedding projects. And last night my flutes came in the mail that Ashley had bought for me. I will try to get a picture up later when my battery isn't dead and I have more time!

Well now off to buy candies for the favor boxes and maybe do some crafting on my garters!

Go play in the snow everyone!!!
