A Big Day!


Well, it finally happened! I graduated from PA school last Friday! The ceremony was really nice with some great speakers that got us pumped about our future careers. The best part was all my family that came!!  Even my nieces who were celebrating their birthday missed school to come to the graduation. My 3 sets of parents were there and brothers and sisters. It was great. We went out to eat after it all and celebrated the birthday with some cupcakes.

The Reeses took us to Litchfield for the weekend. It was a great retreat and fun time to be with everyone, but we missed Matt and Britt! Scout had his first stay at the kennel and now, of course, he is sick. He started on some antibiotics today. But, for those of you who know Scout, it was about time for him to start on a new medication :)

I still have to take the boards and am in the process of preparing right now. So, I am not totally in the clear.  But I can definitely see the light at the end of the tunnel and am so excited about the future that is to come. Please pray for the boards and that I can pass so that I can get this show on the road!!

On another note, Ryan gave me a Tossimo for our anniversary (3 years...we celebrated last week) and graduation. It is the most awesome thing ever and I love it so much! It allows me to make myself a latte right in the middle of studying and not have to leave the house. It really is the best present!

Ok, I have to get back to the books!!!

Baby Jackson's Nursery

We are awaiting baby Jackson's arrival right now at 39 weeks and 4 days:) so, why not pass the time by sharing a few pictures of his nursery? We cannot wait to meet him and Ryan thinks that with the zoo/jungle theme we have going on in the nursery, Jackson is destined to be a zoo keeper.....we will see! I have had so much fun decorating and putting together his little room and I hope he loves it!!! Here is his crib with letters we made and a mirror that i love!!! His crib is from Target and the bedding is from Serena and Lilly  We got the letters from hobby lobby and then hot glued zoo animals onto the letters and the orange ribbon I was really into bamboo shades and love the way the windows turned out with the brown and white combo. His changing table is a dresser we got from the Pottery Barn outlet and then we got the cover from a shop on Etsy Ryan's dad repainted this rocking chair for Jackson. It was the chair that Ms. Cindy rocked Ryan and his brothe...

On Faith and Suffering

Suffering....it is not an easy thing to bear up under. I feel that as life goes on, I am seeing more and more suffering around me. I have recently been through a tough season in my life. In the midst of difficult circumstances, it has caused me to look to God and question at times. I think sometimes in the Christian life, we are told, “Don’t question. Just believe. God is good all the time.” This, of course, is true but I think there is true beauty in the wrestling. In the coming out on the other side having a deeper faith because of where God has taken you on the journey. I have recently been reading in Hebrews and like God does, He somehow lined up the Scriptures and where I was reading to answer some of my questions right in the face. Questions like... “Why do people who love you have to suffer?” “I understand suffering is for your glory, but we already love you and are about your glory so do we have to go through it?” “Are you really big enough? Good? Faithful?” “Is it ...

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...
