Snow!!!

We are finally experiencing a Philly winter (most people would say last year didn't really count because it was so mild). I have had fun walking around after the snow falls and feel like I am getting to know my favorite spots all over again.

California Part 2

So long overdue but here are some pictures from our Christmas trip.

Quick update: Soon after we came back from California I took the NCLEX, the nursing boards required to become an RN. The next day, I started my master's program! (I've kind of been doing it all along but now that the BSN is complete, I can focus completely on the masters courses, which have been wonderful). The road to becoming a pediatric nurse practitioner has been a long one for me and it's hard to believe I only have about 6 months left of school. I could not have asked for a better clinical placement, I'm really enjoying the classes, and I am mostly keeping my head above water in terms of the work. Ben also started school up again last week. He hit the ground running with his second Hebrew class which is considered the hardest language course at Westminster. So that'll be fun. I'm really proud of him and always feel like I benefit a lot from his studies :) Ok, here are the pictures (disclaimer: most of these I already put on Facebook).
