Cancun!

Although I rarely get comments on my postings so I question if anyone even looks at my blog, I will continue to update myself on what's going on.
Last week my Grandpa took all of the single cousins (I of course qualify) and the adults to Cancun for a week. It was PARADISE! We stayed at an all inclusive resort so there was unlimited food, pina coladas, and icecream. Let's just say it was delicious to the mouth but detrimental to the hips. Our resort was right on the beach so between the sand and the pool, I was able to get a little tan which is always a good thing. I was able to do things I had never done before which was awesome. My dad and I went scuba diving and I drank alcohol for the first time. Scuba diving was intentional but the alcohol tasting definately wasn't so don't go tell the bishop on me quite yet. All of the workers assumed that since I'm an adult that I drink so I would make sure that I say I wanted virgin pina coladas. Well I guess one time they didn't understand my broken spanish and thought I said, "Load this one up! I love to have a really gross burning taste in my throat." We literally took hundreds of pictures so below I am showing just a few of the highlights. Anyway, it will be a trip I'll never forget!

GRADUATION!

I know that I am a little behind in blogging but that's pretty normal for me! Just know that there are two more blogs coming very soon!
First thing is first though!
I GRADUATED!
I didn't think that day would ever come but it finally did. The girls all had to wear all white as part of the nursing tradition. My parents were able to come to Idaho for the ceremony and it was awesome having them there. Along with my parents, my sister-in-law Nicole and both sets of grandparents drove to get there too. I definately felt loved. The last week of school was actually more emotional than I had expected. Some of my bestest friends are in Idaho so it is still a huge adjustment for me being home. I am going to miss my friends a whole lot but I am excited to go visit them. It has been awesome being home with my family and spending more time with them these past few weeks. We took a trip to Mexico last week but we'll save the details of that for the next blog. I got a job at Banner Gateway hospital in their ICU (Intensive Care Unit). I start August 11 and I am both excited and nervous to start. I will be trained for the next while so I guess I have a little bit of time to get my feet wet. I plan on taking the NCLEX, which is the test to become licensed, the beginning to middle of September. Anyway, more updates are to come! Below is a slideshow of graduation night!
