hot sunny fridays are our favorite!

Just a couple cell phone pictures from our Friday... after a long week of work for Jeremy and my longest week of school eVeR, we desperately needed a couple Happy Hour beers! Luckily a restaurant right around the block (Stokes) had a semi-shaded patio, and specials on buckets of Corona! After some food and drinks there we went home to relax and decide what was next... We attempted to go to another local spot, The Drafthouse, but after a beer there we realized we were both exhausted and would love to just go home and relax on the couch. So we did! :)

Hope everyone has a fun and safe memorial day weekend...!

From Sunshine to Storms

We got back late Sunday night from an awesome long weekend in Las Vegas.  It was crazy hot there, and both Jeremy and I loved laying in the sun by the pool... with a bucket of beer of course! We also got to see Jason Mraz and Dave Matthews Band in concert on Saturday night; it was an amazing show!  Here is a short clip of Jason playing one of my favorites: "I'm Yours"

I posted pictures from the vacation on Shutterfly today, so go check them out and leave some comments when you get a few minutes! 

Back here in Omaha, its raining, cloudy, and full of thunder and lightning. Quite a change from over the weekend... And, I start my LAST SEMESTER of nursing school next week and I'm very nervous about it. We got our clinical schedule and it looks like I am in for some very very long days. 8-10 hour shifts two to three times a week. I start in Med-Surg for the first 3 weeks and them am in the ICU for the last 3.  After those 6 weeks, its off to try and be a real nurse in Portland. YIKES. Time is flying by...
