september

S E P T E M B E R
knocked my socks off, and here's why.
(lots of pictures... beware.)


september was for hikes with friends to pretty lakes...
who let me come to their house after to pick a bouquet 
of fresh roses from their garden. (swoon) 


^^they looked so pretty in the passenger seat and later in a vase by our couch. thank you maddie! 


 september was for the occasional rainy day which of course meant 
trips to home depot (my favorite store) + crafting/painting days. 
(since i can't afford to buy us a rifle paper co. sign, i decided i'd paint one like it myself)


september was for making a "cracker cake" for one of my cute patients, who spent her 16th birthday in the hospital vomiting into a bucket. :( so naturally i had to throw her a party. 


september was for finishing my nursing residency with several of my friends from the U. 
...and of course we never could take sim lab seriously. 

(heidi gifford i hope you're reading this: phone in sim lab rings..."HOUSEKEEPING!" ;) 
haha, still laughing about that.)


september was for buying pretty ribbon to decorate our glass jars.


september was for starting a new journal. and writing lots.


september was for celebrating grandfather's 90th birthday!
he is officially the youngest 90 year-old i've ever met.
and never ceases to amaze me.


september was for reading Elizabeth Smart's book. i also got to attend a book group about it where Julie Valentine, a Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner, spoke about her efforts/research to protect women and men who are victims to rape. i would definitely recommend this book.



september was for making jars and jars of raspberry jam with mom.



september was for long bike rides, runs, and more hikes.

^^seriously though, i love these girls more than they'll ever know. 

september was for campouts. full story of our adventure here.


september, you're going to be hard to beat!

dear october, 
we've started out on a rough patch. 
...sore throat, fever, chills, aches and all... 
but i'm willing to give you another chance.
