Sigma and Pinning

So the last week in a half has been crazy!!!



Wed- All the family arrived and Dad and Kim brought a trailer with all of my stuff from the storage unit! They started unloading while My mom and I got our nails done , I got a french on my fingers and baylor colors on my toes with a paw print.



We finished just as it was getting dark and we were starving. We went a little Italian restaurant by our new home called Nikki's. It was really good. Everyone went home to there hotels and we went back to our apartment to get some work done because we were getting the living room and kitchen furniture on thurday! We drove back to Dallas around 2:30.

Thursday- I had sigma and pinning. Sigma is the honor society for nursing and we had an induction ceremony. It was nice because alot of my teachers and mentors were present.




The proud parents 


Grandparents 

Mrs. Prater - taught one of my classes almost every semester and has been a fantastic mentor 

Mrs. Bufton- She is the teacher that we were all scared of J1 but she is the sweetest lady. 

Mrs. Holub- taught my OB and High risk OB class- such an amazing teacher 

Mrs. Tucker- I wish she had taught more of my classes, she is such a wonderful and sweet person! 

Melissa- my fastbac friend- She got a job at children's and is so excited!! 

Mrs. La Sosso- My research teacher and role model, after interning with her for a day I revised my life goals to become a NNP!

Dr. Taylor- he taught A and P at big Baylor and it was literally one of my biggest accomplishments passing his class  




After pinning we packed up the remains of my Dallas apartment and went to the people I babysit house to get the furniture. We moved in the furniture and once again there wasn't even room to move in our apartment. We ate at cattleman's in the fort worth stockyards for dinner and I had a really good steak! I got two graduation gifts, One from my Aunt Rita and Uncle Jim a beautiful purple bracelet it matches my tassel perfectly and a neonatal drug book from my aunt Christine. 


and that concluded the day.. I will continue in the next post.

 It really seems like I was just getting ready to leave for college and packing up my highlander. I took my last three finals Wed (human needs) Thursday (High Risk Perinatal) and Friday was the dreaded Management. Abby and I had out last all nighter at Cafe Brazil. It really doesn't seem like were done. Like I keep thinking in my head o I need to study which I do for my NCLEX but I can allow myself to take a little break especially with all the moving I am doing. This week has been lets learn how to be a grown up in 5 days!    I had to learn about getting apartments and getting cable and electricity luckily Drew knows what he is doing.  The family that I babysit for has been a god send they are giving us there couch, coffee table, end table, and kitchen table for a really great price and we are after changing the plan 12 different times getting the guest room furniture after all.


Our future coffee table 

Say hello to our new end table 

I love this kitchen table ! 


Which is really nice and barely used! I have slowly been making trips back and forth moving all of my little things.But now that everything is settled I can just be excited of course until the wedding drama starts!  But we can enjoy this time  and we have so much to be thankful for and celebrate.


Time for the festivities to begin,
Elisabeth
