Hot minute... I know!

So its been awhile since I have posted a blog! However, better late than never! :) Anyways... where to begin... Well Christmas was awesome as usual! I worked my very first Christmas in 3 and 1/2 years of nursing and it was awesome! The kids and families were amazing and my coworkers we awesome. It made working Christmas so easy. We did tacky sweater day on Christmas Eve and Kelly had the best sweater ever! I mean really someone made this with intentions of it actually being fashionable. (Kelly is in the center... check out that sweater!)

And then on Christmas day... I totally was buddy Elf! (But I currently I cant get the photo to upload!! Arrgh!)

And next comes New Year! And Jeff and I were very fortunate to spend our 2011 New Year Celebration in NYC! Neither one of us have every been there, until now. We had an awesome time and we cant wait to go back when we can have more time to really enjoy New York. However for our very short time there we did many of the very tourist things. The biggest and most humbling was definitely Ground Zero. Though the area is under total contruction now in works for the Freedom Tower (Which is going to be beautiful with the twin tower fountain memorials.) We went to Firestation 10 which was right there at ground zero and saw there beautiful wall memorial. We also visited a small visitor center dedicated to Sept. 11, 2011. What an emotional experience it was. Tears just came as you looked at quotes people said who experienced that horrific day in person. The walls of pictures of people who lost their lives on that sad day. This was Pearl Harbor of my generation. We were attacked and I am soo very thankful for the men and women who defend our country daily! Thank You all!!



Next I know what I have to do.... My new year resolutions:

1. To take and Pass CPHON
2. To save some Moolah!
3. To go out of the Country
4. The most famous of them all: to lose 40 pounds.
5. To do Iron Girl (With motivation from my awesome coworkers and friends:Stacey and Kelly)
6. To be a better person, to grow everyday, to be a better wife, daughter, sister, and friend. And most importantly to grow in my relationship with the Lord! I hope to find a church home jeff and I can call our Church.
7. To stay MOTIVATED all year!!!!

So with all this said.... I think I will head to bed, so perhaps I can get up early before work to make my start on some of this resolutions!

Goodnight!
