Adam's Return Home

Last weekend, we went back to Columbia to visit with our friend, Adam, who is in the Marines and just returned from Afghanistan. We also were able to celebrate my sister's 22nd birthday while we were there as well. Friday night, we got into Columbia around 10:30pm, dropped the dogs off at my parent's house and headed downtown to meet up with Adam and some of our other friends. It was so nice to see everyone! Saturday, we surprised my sister at Groucho's for lunch. YUM! Then we had a fish fry Saturday night for her birthday celebration with the family. Sunday, we went to Adam's parent's house for a little get together his parent's threw for him. It was such a fun weekend, and great to be able to hang out with our friends we haven't seen in a while!

The End of 5th Term...FINALLY!

Well, I can't believe it! I have made it to the end of my 5th semester of physical therapy school! 5th semester was quite the semester and extremely time-consuming/busy! But now that the semester is over, it means only 2 more semesters to go or 239 days until graduation, but who's counting? Unfortunately, I only get less than a week break before beginning internship. 6th semester of PT school consists only of 2 internships (meaning NO NECCESSARY STUDYING!). Hallelujah! I can't believe how fast school is going and that this time next year I'll be working as Shannon Hicks, PT, DPT :) Has a nice ring to it, don't you think? Here's an end of the term pic, with some of the girls!

And another later that night :)
