Hoppy Easter!
Yes, the Hallam family is as perfect (and good-looking!) as they look in their holida
y cards and I am lucky enough to have spent several holidays with the delightful Hallam family over the past 4 years!. The homemade macaroni is always amazing. Meemaw's mermaid earrings always adds an extra flare to every gathering. Carly's 10-year-old brother's beat poetry is highly entertaining and her cousin's chihuahua Crouton is always sporting a freshly made makeover (i.e. shaven mohawk, painted nails, dyed pink). Easter is always a favorite of mine; past Easters have even included a tequila shot tennis tournament. While tennis matches were placed w
ith games of croquet, this Easter was extra special as we all rejoiced at church early Sunday morning to sing an unforgettable rendition of "Hallelujah!" Greg provided a memorable blessing and Aunt Travis and Tammy cooked an unbelievable feast! Stuffed of chocolate bunnies and mimosas , this Easter left us dreaming of the surprise in Carly's Easter basket...

One! Two! Three!
The fabulous Miss Kate turned three today! Rhonda and Kevin (Kate's Mom and Dad) hosted a fantastic Hello Kitty! birthday party complete with an Easter egg hunt, burgers, homemade cake and cupcakes, and lots of presents! She was particularly excited about her new three-story doll house. I must say I may have been equally excited for the new additions to Kate's already extensive collection of toys!

FLIP FLOPS AND POPSICLES
I have spent the past 3 days studying for hours on end for the HESI - a standardized nursing exam that measures your aptitude to be a nurse. In order to complete your practicum (our last part of nursing school) you must score 900 on this test. I have failed this test twice before now and took it for my third (and final) today. Nervous and fearful of not graduating May 2, I spent over five hours carefully answering all 160 questions in which I passed scoring 98% (1093!). To wish me good luck (or as she put it "get well soon" but I think she meant to say "good luck!") Kate painted me this beautiful fridge-worthy picture in which she self-titled "FLIP FLOPS AND POPSICLES!"

Sarasota Sunset
This weekend was fabulous! Carly and I drove down to Sarasota to stay with Jordan in "the real world". His condo has breathtaking views of the Sarasota Bay from fourteen floors up. We ate at a fabulous sushi restaurant Friday and cooked our own dinner breaking in Jordan's kitchen/dining room with all organic food from Whole Foods. We spent all day Saturday shopping around St. Armand's Circle and Sunday relaxing on the soft sand at Siesta Key. I hope my real world is half as amazing as his...

I think I'm gonna need a hard hat for this one...
We celebrated our last day of class (ever!!) by having a social with the building construction college! I wrote my (only) final Thursday morning and successfully passed!! For the rest of the semester, I will be completing 240 hours in the neonatal intensive care unit for my practicum.
