  • The one where Monica graduates from nursing school

    So I’m a little late with these but here are Monica’s graduation photos. I am so proud of her. It was a LOT of work, and there were some tough times, but with God’s grace, she persevered and came through with flying colors (i.e. great grades). There is no way I could have done what…

  • Done and Done

    After 3 long years of nothing but school, I’ve finally graduated. Graduation took place May 11th and all my family was there to see me walk across that stage. It was a happy day! After graduation Brian and I decided to head to Asheville, NC and visit the Biltmore Estate. What a beautiful place! We’ve…

  • April Stuff

    School Two weeks and a day! That’s what I have left of school. I am currently trying to survive my internship (preceptorship) and it’s going well. I’m a little tired but that was to be expected. Working 12 hours shifts is tough but I’m learning a lot and love the job. Taking on a full…

  • March Update

    Sorry for the lack of updates but things have been a little hectic around here. Praise God everything is going well at brimon headquarters. School School is almost done and I have a position in a surgery trauma unit waiting for me upon successful completion of nursing school and RN licensure! Exciting stuff for sure.…

  • 47 Days and 13.1 Miles

    47 days. That’s all I have left to go in nursing school and I can’t wait to be done. I have been going to school full-time for 3 years now and I can almost see the end. This last semester is harder than I expected and time management has been an issue but hopefully I…

  • This and that

    Things have been moving pretty quickly since the beginning of the year. It was really difficult getting back into the swing of things at work – very tough when you’ve been off a week and a half. I really enjoyed our time off, so it made it that much worse to have to go back…

  • Summer Update

    Brian and I went on vacation in May. He was supposed to write about it but I think he has given up on updating this website. We visited Disney World, Epcot, Sea World (which I’d never been to) and MGM studios. We had a great time and I loved meeting Shamu! After we came back…

  • Eventually

    Okay, so when I said tomorrow, I didn’t exactly mean the next day. I guess I should have said “eventually”. Things have been pretty busy here lately as I am obsessed with landscaping our backyard and Monica is trying to get back in study mode. My plan is to post a recap of our trip…

  • Spring Update

    As we head into May I thought it might be a good idea to update the site and let everyone know what we’ve been up to. Brian is usually the one that does this but I will try to do the best I can. Brian has been really busy with work but doing well. He…

  • A-list

    Man-oh-man, I knew I’d forgotten something in that last post. I totally pulled a Hilary Swank and forgot to mention Monica’s A in her class! Woohoo! You see, Monica’s class for the first part of the semester was something called “med-surg”. She’s always throwing medical jargon at me as if I’ve been in her classes…
