Birthday boy!

Bill turned 32 Mon the 18th. Since we are so busy with school and work during the week we celebrated all weekend. Saturday we went to his favorite restaurant with our moms. The restaurant has 2 male and 2 female peacocks and a cat that rome the grounds, and a koi pond.
The cat walked by our table as we finished our meal and Bill noticed it's name is Tula. Bill's nickname for me is Mrs. Tula! We thought it was pretty cute and had to get a pic!




We have never been able to get the peacock to spread it's feathers when we've gone before, he must have thought since it was Bill's birthday he would do it. I wanted to go pluck him but I am too scared!



So this is a bad hair day for me, just ignore that, but here is the gang!
I studied all day Saturday before we left so I didn't have time to make a cake. We got yummy desserts from the restaurant, and birthday candles were MIA so I improvised, this one smells better anyway!
Making his wish... hope it comes true, it was a good one!
SO, I promise I am a good wife and I did end up making Bill a real birthday cake with real birthday candles. Sunday we had a BBQ with our moms again and we sang and he blew out the candles on his yummy cake and I took pictures and it was a beautiful night. I go to upload the pics to blog and he had already deleted them. Nice! He is happy boy though, he already spent his gift card, uploaded music to his little i-pod, and his nose is hair free!
Love you Bill!

These make me happy!

I took my first med/surg test last week on Thursday, and by Thurs. night I was sick to my stomach (literally) and I knew I had failed it. I woke up every hour through out the night and before my alarm went off Fri. morning, I started crying. I was wondering what the heck I was going to do if I failed RN school. I talked to my instructor and he said he wouldn't list grades until at least Mon. What the? He made us wait all weekend...not a happy student. And then when I started talking to him about some of the questions and he told me one of the ones I missed, I swore about it and told him that was stupid. There were 2 right answers and I put the most right, but he wanted the 2nd right one.
Anyway, I got my score today and guess what...... I FREAKING PASSED!!! Not only did I pass but I got a much better score than what I thought. So, Bill told me to go reward myself for going through that stress, and since I don't have a dose of Xanax to reward myself with, I got these cute, little girl sized slippers that I can actually shove my big feet into!

P.S. Don't mind the wrinkles all over my ankles, I was sitting on my legs on top of wrinkled pants right before I decided to take a pic!
