Summer

Hi all. I wish I could for once start a blog without the introduction of how I am so bad at blogging and staying on it. My summer is coming to a halt in one swift motion. I came into this summer with the main intention to be to spend as much time as possible having fun with Evelyn and to do some really fun stuff with her. So we went to 2 different zoo's, a beach, 4 road trips, aquarium, turtle cove, water parks, lots of parks, libraries, and of course many trips to JoAnn's! This summer has been so amazing with her. She is so spirited and funny and smart. I cant get over the sarcasm that just shines through her smirks and her glaring eyes as she points that chubby little finger and says "No No Momma, No No". Cute....its a good thing! We have gone to KY a lot this summer and its been so fabulous. So much more space for E to run around in and of course its great for her to see her family that cant be here all the time.
I start the last year of the nursing program this week. Im excited to get back in gear. Im just concerned that the support system that I finally built last year isnt ready for the drastic change coming...yeah that means Brad. lol. Poor guy, I know he (nor anyone) hasnt a clue what its like going through this program unless you are the one doing it. Anyways, this year there is no wiggle room for getting the family used to it for a semester before I get the much needed help, these first 8 weeks are probably going to be the most brutal of them all. I didnt get PM clinicals like I wish for, instead I will have to be downtown detroit by 7 a.m. Oh sure....cake.
My aunt and I started an etsy shop and we are loving it. Its not horribly over whelming and we are doing something that we love to do. I am getting much more business than I ever expected with the Boutonnieres I have been making out of buttons. They are super fun to make and my prices so far are pretty competitive. Im thinking about doing a giveaway on a wedding blog, hopefully a Michigan wedding blog. Any ideas?
Lastly Brad and I are getting started into some really fun wedding planning! I am so excited. We have the venue for the reception/cocktail hour/reception booked. And it is just what I had imagined to find, and I actually found it! We will be taking care of the catering next, mmm foood. That should be good.

My little angel is sleeping right now so I am going sit and listen to this fabulous pandora radio and catch up on my blog reading. Hope to be back soon!
