Hawaii

I finally uploaded the rest of our Hawaii pictures! We had SO much fun at Turtle Bay. It was a wonderful trip. Mostly we just sat by the pool or the beach, relaxed and snorkeled, it was a perfect trip. Enjoy a few pictures from the trip!

Last day at Turtle Bay

Engaged!!

I am SO happy! Steve proposed to me last night and of course I said YES!! We were out on the beach at Turtle Bay watching the sunset and just hanging out. I turned around and he was down on his knee and asked me to marry him! I was so shocked and surprised. Steve had been working really hard to throw me off the scent so I was 100% certain he would not be proposing anytime soon. Fortunately I was wrong. We are both so excited and cannot wait to see what comes next. Enjoy the pictures.

WOOHOOO!!!

It's even more official! I now have a job offer which I am so excited about. It is in the Critical Care department at Overlake Hospital in Bellevue, WA. It begins October 5th and I will finally be a practicing nurse! This is fantastic news and just in time for the Hawaii vacation! What a wonderful way to get to celebrate and relax before I start this rigorous program.

Pictures from Hawaii will soon follow!!

It's Official

I am now an RN! I took the NCLEX last Thursday and Saturday morning found out I passed! I am official!

Whistler!

Steve and I just got back from a wonderful weekend in Whistler! We started the weekend with a stop at my mom and dad's for a delicious meal and some family time. Friday morning we headed up to Whistler and did a 5 mile hike at Brandywine Falls to the Cal-Cheak Suspension bridge. It was beautiful. Saturday we hung out around the village and then did some golfing at Nicklaus North. It was Steve's first time playing in Whistler and my first time in a LONG time playing 18 holes. Both were successful! What a beautiful course. Enjoy the photos!
