Celebration of the Bling!

Wow....it has been a while since my last blog, huh? Sorry about that. Life has just been crazy busy...I am now in Anderson doing a rotation and have limited internet access. I am having a great time living with Ryan's parents, but I am missing Ryan. Oh well, school is almost over and then we will be together again!

Ryan's brother, Matt, got engaged a couple of weeks ago and we celebrated last weekend! Matt and his FIANCE, Brittany went to Disney World for a little vacay and Matt proposed during their trip. We are so excited for them because they have been patiently waiting for a long time for this event! Saturday night, Matt and Britt's families went to dinner to celebrate at Capri's restaurant in Greenville. We had a great time filled with laughter, fun and joy!

Disney actually gave Britt and Matt these cute pens to wear for their engagement....

Then, we went to the Brown Street jazz club to listen to some music and have dessert. We had a blast!

Congrats Matt and Britt! We love you and are looking forward to your marriage and your life together!

10 things...

I am such a copy-cat today, but I love this idea! My favorite, Beth Moore, started this on her blog, and then I noticed my girls, Alyssa and Kathyrn did it on their blogs too. I am learning so many new things about people and, naturally, I need to do it now! Here are the directions: What are 10 things - right off the top of your head - that we would only know about you if we knew you really well? 10 random things ranging anywhere on your personal map that make you a tad distinctive? Or just plain weird? Think quickly. Don't go for deep. Go for quirky. Don't try to put them in any kind of order and don't make them long. Just start typing. Since this is the Reese blog, I will attempt to do it for both of Ryan and myself.... Anna: 1. I hate to shave. Freshman year of college, I only shaved once a week and my friends and people I worked with tried to straighten me out with weekly "armpit checks"...sick, but true. 2. I love zits, abscesses, blood blisters---an

Miracle!!

Ryan and I are so so thankful and excited to make the announcement that we are having a baby! Right now, I have just finished up the first trimester. The baby is almost 15 weeks old. We actually get to find out the gender in a couple of weeks, which is so exciting! It has been such a wonderful time. The Lord has truly blessed us with this miracle. Through this process, the thing that I have been thinking the most of in my heart is that the Lord is good. I don't know why this truth is sometimes hard for me to soak in. Life is hard and trials happen- this is so true and the trials do not make God any less good. However, sometimes, the Lord just gives to His children. I find it so crazy that I am resistant to believe this at times, but I always look at the toughest or hardest outcome in a situation and assume that it will happen. However, through this, I have been reminded that although the Lord allows hard things to happen at times to shape and define us, He does good things a

Reflections

I am currently about to be done with my last class ever in PA school. That fact combined with the fact that I have to turn in my computer in about an hour has inspired me to blog! I cannot believe that this chapter of my life is almost done. As I look back over my life, I think of the many things that I have done and sacrificed to prepare for this moment. High school and working hard to make the best grades possible and be involved so that I could achieve something and do something with my life. College and majoring in Biology so that I could go into the health care field. Figuring out that I wanted to go to PA school and my course changing. I ended up having to take about 36 extra hours on top of biology courses just to get the pre-reqs I needed for PA school. I remember back to the application process and attempting to make sure everything was in order. Then I was devastated when I did not get into PA school that first time. I began a job after we got married at the Heart Center to
