Just keep swimming

Only 8 more weeks until I graduate!! It is the best/worst news in the whole world. The best because its only 8 more weeks, which means only 8 more classes, only 10 more tests, and only 7 more clinicals. Its also the worst because it still means 8 weeks of class! :( It is so hard to stay focused in the summer, especially when I know so many people who graduated in May and have already taken the NCLEX and are officially registered nurses. I need some serious motivation to get me through these next 8 weeks. If anyone has any motivational speeches or pep talks to help me out, I would seriously appreciate it. Until then I just need to take the advice from Dory on Finding Nemo and "just keep swimming."

Trucks and Boats

Brad and I finally did it, we traded in his lancer and got that boy a truck!! He was SO excited to get it! We've been looking for a few months and finally found the perfect one, and got it for a sweet deal! He loves driving it, and somtimes he just likes to go outside and sit in it. :) He tells me that he finally feels like a "real man" (whatever that means). We were sad to see the lancer go, it has been a good car for us, and has so many wonderful memories that go along with it. But we are ready to make new memories in our new truck...starting tonight when we take it to the drive in with some friends!

OUR BOAT

Brad has been working hard remodeling an old boat that we bought, and he is almost done! He has done such a great job and it looks amazing! He wakes up early to work on it and stays up late finishing projects. He has completely redone the whole thing all by himself! I am so impressed!! He is just waiting for the upholstery to be done and then it is completely finished! This summer is going to be so fun!! :)

Look how ugly that is
