What I Should Be Doing, But Instead...

So this weekend I have to go to school ALL DAY Friday, Saturday, and half a day on Sunday. We had to choose an elective for PT school so I chose Spanish with the thoughts of "I could totally use this one day" and "How bad can it be?" Trying to teach yourself a new language is absurd...So instead of reading this book like I should be, I have found that catching up on tv shows, sitting in front of a warm fireplace, looking for wedding stuff, and devouring more Oreos than necessary is waaaayyy better (nevermind the fact that I now have a wedding dress to fit into).


Speaking of wedding dresses, I am getting steadily more frustrated with trying to find bridesmaids dresses. I thought I found one that I liked, but the more I look at it, the uglier it gets...I know what color I want. I know what fabric I want. Now I just have to find a dress that comes in both. uuuugggghhh!!!! picking out my wedding dress wasn't this hard! I have beautiful bridesmaids and I want their dresses to be just as gorgeous! So on that note, if anyone has any input or suggestions for my little dilemma feel free to send 'em my way.

9:15. Sunday night. Exhausted. I feel like I have been running around like a chicken with my head cut off the past few weeks. I am now halfway through my third rotation, and it's going well. Patients are great and the staff is wonderful. Still not sure if outpatient is for me or not, but I am enjoying myself and learning much. It's reassuring to see your patients making measurable improvements. Makes me feel like I'm doing something right.

This weekend was A LOT of fun! Kyle and I headed down to Miami on Friday for my dad's wedding weekend. It was the first time Kyle was going to meet Gigi and Poppy, my dad's parents, and I was so excited! They are the world's best grandparents and I am not sure where I would be without them. They loved each other, like I knew they would!!!

Saturday was the wedding. It was on the beach around 4:30 and it was beautiful. The tide was coming in and the sun was setting and the weather could not have been more perfect. It was good to see Dad so happy. While we were taking pictures after the ceremony, Kim (Dad's new wife) told the photographer about Kyle and I getting engaged so she snapped a few photos of us. It was awkward having to pose but hopefully they turned out cute. I will post some when we get them back. Here are a few pictures from the weekend...

Opening an engagement present from Gigi. Her gorgeous diamond heart necklace. My first BIG piece of jewelry, besides my ring of course.

More engagement presents!!!

In other news, a few weeks ago was Race for the Cure. After a week of rain, the weather could not have been any nicer for race day. What a blessing it was to be able to walk WITH my mom. Latest oncologist appointment shows no signs of cancer!!! Whoop whoop!
