another year older

The older I get the better my birthdays are. Maybe because I have more money to really celebrate or I care less so less disappointment. I don't know. But this year I was crossing the mid 20's hump into my later 20s and I had been graduated from college for 5 years so I was determined to make it fun. I had a lot to celebrate. I started off the weekend before with a girls trip to California. It was so fun and relaxing. We ate a lot of good food, slept in, went to the most beautiful beach I have ever been to in Cali, went to a Dodgers game, and of course there was plenty of shopping! It was such a fun and relaxing weekend! 

On my actual birthday I went shopping up in Park City with my mom and sisters. That night I met up with some of my close girl friends to go to my favorite restaurant La Jolla Groves and frozen yogurt at Farr's. We also saw a terrible new Miley Cyrus movie that I am trying to pretend didn't happen. Despite that I had a great day and I'm excited for the next year!

5 years ago...


5 years ago I took my RN boards. I remember it being somewhat unfulfilling because it took be less time than some of my tests in nursing school. I found out on my 21st birthday that I passed. 5 years later I still have the same job and I absolutely love it. I'm so glad that I chose such a rewarding profession. The hardest 2 years of my life (aka nursing school) were so worth it and I made so many good friends. I love my job! It is such a huge blessing in my life!
