So much has happened in the last few months! I know I promised (awhile back) that I'd do a big update, so here goes (with some pictures)!
First of all, Frank and I got married on August 6!
It was such a fun and wonderful celebration! The best wedding and everything we could have hoped for. The ceremony was amazing, and at the reception the food was wonderful, there was a photo booth, and LOTS of dancing!!
We went on a cruise for our honeymoon...
The cruise stopped at Cozumel, Roatan, Belize and Grand Cayman. We went cave tubing, sea-treking and had so much fun on the ship!
Thirdly, this semester has been filled with football games, weddings, camping trips, and lots of fun with friends!
Our gift to ourselves for Christmas was camping gear - so we took our first trip to Guntersville State Park with our friends, Courtney and Daniel. We've also been going through a Bible study with Courtney and Daniel. We've been studying 'This Momentary Marriage' by John Piper - so far a wonderful book!!
We adopted two adorable lap puppies - Belle and Beaux. They are brother and sister and are such a wonderful addition to our family!
They're only 3 months old right now and growing so quickly! They are very smart and have already learned to 'sit'! They are also very curious and in to everything around the house, lol. However, they are learning to obey most of the time :).
Lastly, I finished the semester with all A's and B's! WHOOP! Now I am done with my didactic (classroom) portion of school and all I have left is a year of clinicals! My first rotation is OB/GYN at the free hospital in Birmingham. I've been studying a bit to get ready to amaze my preceptors. I'm so excited to get some hands-on experience!
I'm also very excited to go home for Christmas! We are driving out this Christmas Eve to spend some time in Shreveport with the extended family, then headed to Texas for some time at home. We haven't been home or seen my family since October - which feels like a whole lot longer than 2 months! We are also taking the puppies with us to meet the whole crew! It will be such a fun time!
Coming up is my best friend, Rebecca's bachelorette party and wedding! We (the bridesmaids) have been scheming and have lots of fun things planned!!
Anyway, that's it as far as an update! I'll try to keep up with the blog as I go through clinicals so everyone can keep up with my rotations!
Gig 'Em and War Eagle!
