Well I made it through the first week of the nursing program! YEAH! For those of you that don't know...I just started the nursing program at the DATC. It is a four semester program with no summer break so I was a little nervous about it. Thankfully a girl named Nina (shout out) who lives just downstairs from BJ and I, just found out that she was accepted into the program as well. So we carpool and study together. I am just so grateful for her and all the help she is to me.

The first week went pretty well. It was a little overwhelming not knowing what to expect and intimidating since it it is an accelerated program. But I made it!

We have already had two tests and two pass off's and we start clinicals in a couple weeks, which I am so excited for! Wahoo.

For clinicals we have a DATC patch that we need to sew onto our uniform. I kept telling BJ that he should sew it on with his mad sewing skills. Well, last night I was studying at Nina's apartment and came up to find the apartment completely clean, laundry done, dishes done, and a clean vacummed floor...not to mention...BJ watching football while sewing on the patches on the uniform. I am just so luck to have BJ. He is way to good to me!!! I am the luckies girl in the world. I definitely couldn't be doing this without him!

This has definitely been the most busy week that Christie and I can remember! We were running crazy. It started Tuesday night with my brother Ryan's wedding dinner. We had some delicious steak and honored him and his wife Tiff.

If anybody knows me really well, they would know that I am not a huge reader unless it is a really really good book. Well... so far the "twilight series" have been really really good books and I can't stop reading them. I just barely finished reading "new moon" (I know I am behind) and I really want to start into the next book "eclipse" before school starts. So I was wondering if there is anybody out there that would let me borrow that book????

Can I just say that I have the most amazing husband in the world. He planned such a special day for me today. I told him that I really wanted to go to Raging Waters before school started because I had never been there before. Well he totally surprised me and called me family and some close friends and invited them to come with us today. I knew something was going on because I was asked to work today and he told me that he had something planned. I thought I knew the plan until he got up and went to work this morning...taking a lunch with him. Little did I know that he just went and worked from the Library at the U making me think he went to work and came back just a little over an hour later (right before Raging Waters opened) and walked in with a cooler full of food and everything packed and ready to go. I was totally surprised!!! Unfortunately we headed to Raging waters and the rain started coming down, and they closed for the day. But I will never forget this day and all that my husband went through to surprise me and do something for me that he knew I would love! See why the title is "the best husband in the world". Thanks BJ you made this day unforgettable.
