A Photogenic Puppy and A Beautiful Room!

Last week was a crazy and busy week! Somewhere in the middle I found out that we have a very photogenic puppy. For whatever reason he loves the little orange light on my camera that lights up right before I take his picture. I don't know why he hasn't noticed it before, but he notices it now. Every time I went to take his picture and the orange light came on he looked straight up at the camera and froze! So I took probably way too many pictures of him because it was cracking me up, but here are a few.

Look at that big boy!
This is one of his favorite "sleep spots".
You can't separate a man and his remote... haha :)

In other news, I have been wanting to "finish" the sunroom for forever! I wanted some roman shades to go on the windows, but those aren't cheap, and I have 7 windows back there! I found out that a lot of shades don't come in the length I needed for the sunroom windows, and I certainly wasn't going to pay for 7 custom made shades... so pricey! So I finally found some for 1/2 off, and after two JCPenney's I had all 7. I was able to hang one, and that's it... haha.


And thanks to this amazing man up here, I came home to all the rest up! I just love them! All the furniture's all in the middle for some curtain time!

Then, this amazing woman came and spent two whole days with me in Newnan, and I loved every minute of it! She helped me finish this room as well as another!

Now the sunroom is totally finished... except for a few minor accents... which are there now don't worry :) I absolutely love it! The picture doesn't do it justice, and I just love sitting back there even more now.

Crazy Week


It has been a crazy week that has flown by. I can't believe today is Thursday! Last weekend was great too! A friend got married which is great in and of itself. Even though I wasn't able to go, I know it was gorgeous and I can't wait to see all the pictures :) We went to a family party and had lots of fun. I totally forgot to take pictures but of course I have one of me and Nathan and the little cousins too :)
I have three days off between working, so that has been very nice. I am loving my job, and I am loving the schedule that comes with it as well! Three days a week is definitely very nice. However, don't be fooled - they are three LONG days! It is a great place to be though :) Today Margalena and I are going to my friend Crystal's house to get some facials! We are excited, and I can't wait to see her because it's been FOREVER! Well, I'm off to get ready for my afternoon of facials and girl time!

Finally

Since it has almost been a whole month since I've gotten on here, I guess I should write a little update! This month has been crazy since we got back from the cruise. A few days after we got back from the cruise we celebrated our 1st Anniversary! Since the cruise was part of our anniversary, we had a relaxing day together. After a family birthday party, we went to see Transformers II, and it was so good! We had a nice dinner at home and then went to the Aquarium the next day. We still had never been, and we've been wanting to go for awhile so it seemed like the perfect day to go! We planned the cruise so that I had about a week and a half off when we got back before I started work. Well, my week off turned into my week with the flu! It was horrible, but I survived and I started orientation in the middle of July. I am now on the floor and am LOVING IT! Nathan "officially" started back to work today, and he is getting ready for his kids to come on Friday. Wow, summer went by fast! I am going today to help him decorate his new classroom and then out to eat with some friends tonight! So for now, me and Toby are just chilling and being lazy at the house!!! I am done with work until Monday, and I'm excited! This weekend we are going camping with my family and going to my dad's race on Sunday! Well, me and Toby need to get to work ;)

Lisa, RN, BSN!!!

Well, the cruise was amazing. I will definitely post pics soon because there are a ton! As much as I tried to wait to check my results from NCLEX so just in case I didn't pass it wouldn't ruin my vacation... I couldn't. So Monday I paid the crazy .75 cents per minute to get online and pay some more for my "quick results". And I passed!!!! Yeah!!! I'm so excited, and I'm finally done with all things nursing school now! I start orientation on July 20th, and I can't wait. Here are just a few pics, and I'll post a link to the rest soon!

I sat here, checked my results, and cried when I passed!
Then I got to sit here,
With this amazing man,
And have a celebration drink,
While sitting here
Watching the sunset.
Life is good :)

Back to Work...

Well, I had an amazing 7 days off to just be at home with Nathan and Toby (our puppy). I had a great time, and I'm excited to have some more time off soon! I am working today and tomorrow, and then I'm off again until Wednesday. I could get used to this! Being home with Nathan reminds me how very thankful I am for him! I know some people couldn't be at home for 7 days straight without killing each other... haha! I love it :) Now just waiting for this afternoon to roll around so I can head back to Newnan. After today, only 8 more days here at the office. Kind of crazy! I've been here for 4 1/2 years! It's become second-nature to drive down here and work, and now I'll be driving the other direction to Atlanta!

In other news... we booked our cruise! I'm so excited! Our first cruise! I know I will have tons of amazing pictures to post of that.

And... we're going to the Keith Urban concert Saturday! Definitely excited about that. Excited about what this summer holds... Back to work...
