Yellowstone!
These are SOME pictures (they took alot of pictures) of my sister, Brittany. She and her friend Jessica, both took jobs working at Yellowstone National Park over the summer, FUN FUN!!!! Life with these two girls is a ZOO, they always have so much fun!
They took five days and drive the whole way to Yellowstone, with the help fom "IAN", their navigational system, of course. These are some of the places they stopped on the way. The first picture is a river in Yellwostone.
I can not wait to see how their summer at Yellowstone, plays out. We have to worry and hope that Brittany can hold back and stay away from all of the cute little animals! LOL!!! For those of you who do not know Brittany, she loves animals so much. My mom had to tell her "if you see a baby bear, THERE WILL BE a momma bear, somewhere around too!" I am sure she will entertain everyone there that she meets!
I will put up more pictures that she sends. She said it is BEAUTIFUL there!I am very proud of her for packing up and going on such a Great adventure!

ONE down TWO to go!!!!
Personal Achievement!
This past Saturday, May 5th I graduated from Volunteer State Community College, with my Associates of Science!
I actually finished my Associates this past December, but the Ceremony was held this past Saturday. I am currently enrolled at Aquinas College in Nashville and will apply for the Nursing program this September! So everyone start praying now. For anyone that does not know it is a hard program to get into, with 100's applying that have just as good of grades and just as good NET (Nursing Entrance Test) scores. I just have to show them I am better, so they want me! With this degree, I hope that it makes me stand out a little bit more!! So, please Prayers!!!!
Our pictures turned out better then I thought. I was raining so hard that morning and I thought it was going to flood (LOL!!) So many people came in with their gowns on that were totally wet, hair too! The ceremony was inside in the gym, so each graduate could only have five guest. My mom, dad, sister Brittany, and Brett!
Next I hope for my Associates of Nursing then one year laster my Bachelor of Nursing! Aquinas's Nursing school requires you receive your Associates first, then right into the Bachelor degree program! I am so EXCITED!!!!
I have taken my sweet time to get here but I am almost there!!! It will be here before I know it!
Our Engagment Party in Lebanon!
Hello Everyone! Sorry that it has been a while since I put up the last post. It has been busy. Finals are starting this week!!!! So, I am almost out for the Summer break.
These are pictures from our Engagement party that my family had for Brett and I. We had it at my parents house, way out in the country! Almost all of my family and almost all of Brett's family got to meet, for the first time! I again forgot pictures of the party. My mom took the ones we have.
I just get so excited and forget!
These are some of the gifts we received from friends and family. We got books that are must reads. From Katie (The Five Love Languages), Tara, Brad, and Connor(The Power of a Praying Wife and The Power of a Praying Husband)! Tara said the books she got us were really good, that she got one and thought it was Great!! I can not wait to start reading them. We also received a Willow Creek statue, "Promise" from Mrs Kim, Mr. Buddy and Hunter Williams! I was just telling mom the other day how I wanted to start collecting them.
In my post about our engagement party in Memphis I told about the champagne glasses my Aunt Gale got for Brett and I, but I did not have a picture so they are in these pictures. I wanted to make sure everyone could see them, because they are so lovely! Also, the poster my Aunt Gale started for us at that engagement party and my sister brought it home for this party. Everyone wrote us messages there! What a cool idea!
Thank you to all of our loved ones and friends for your support and love!
We are having such a Wonderful time with our engagement, we are going to have such a Blessed year!!
