Good things come to those who wait.

I'm sure you vaguely remember me saying when I first started this blog that I'll probably get behind updating this....right? Just making sure.

It's been FOREVER. Life is insane. Nursing school is going full force right now. Thankfully, I'll graduate in December and I'll have the lovely 'RN' title by my name. I wish I could say that I'd be done with school forever after this, but the plan is to take about 6 months off while I start working and then begin graduate school in August 2013. Oh well. I know it will be worth it in the end. To be totally honest, I'm really starting to love nursing more and more. School is awesome and awful all at the same time. I'll be excited to actually start working in the field.

A lot has happened since I last updated. Friends having a BEAUTIFUL baby boy, friends getting married (tomorrow!), and friends just being good friends. We are truly blessed, to say the least.

Big news for us as well.......ready.........?

.....We bought a HOME!

(For those of you who were thinking we were pregnant, you're all jerks.) :)




YES! A home! We close on June 6. It's been kind of hush hush for the most part, because we wanted to make sure everything worked out as far as financing and inspection before we told everyone. We had our hearts broken by 5 homes before this one due to shady investors, weird findings in the home, and just totally random and unfortunate events. It's really terrible timing, with me being school 4-5 days a week and working, but we couldn't be more excited. We will definitely post some pictures once we close....we've got a lot of sweat equity going into this, so we'll definitely show off some before and after pictures once we get moving.

P.S.-Anyone who is good at painting, ripping things up, moving, and other random DIY projects...we would LOVE your help! My sweet husband will basically be doing most of this work without me because of my crazy schedule. We will pay you in food, booze, and a new hangout spot :).

More to come in hopefully a few weeks! Stay tuned!
