Day 1 & Day 2

*Day 1*
      We spent day 1 of our trip traveling. We left from the Columbia airport and flew into the Philadelphia airport. We met up with Ryan's family there and enjoyed philly cheesesteaks while we were waiting for our flight to Barcelona. We left Philadelphia at 6:30pm (12:30am Barcelona time) and arrived in Barcelona at 8am.

*Day 2*
      After a very tiring trip of traveling, we were told to stay awake as long as we could so we would be on Barcelona's time. We stayed at a nice bed and breakfast our first night. We tried to make use of the day by walking around the town. I walked into the expensive stores just to see how much people paid for luxury, and I'm glad they pay that much for stuff. I would never spend that kind of money on a cute shirt (especially when I can find something similar at an outlet store for a much cheaper price). We enjoyed our first gelato in Barcelona as well. We were tired at 4pm so we took a little nap and then woke up to eat dinner at a pizzeria and have a drink at an Irish pub (the closest bar to the bed and breakfast). We went to bed super early that night to we would be well rested before the cruise :)

Upcoming Vacation

This will be my last post for about 2 weeks. You see, we are headed to Spain and Italy! Of course, once we return I will post pictures of the trip! Ryan's family is taking us there for a graduation trip. On the trip we will be visiting: 

Barcelona, Spain

Cannes, France

Florence, Italy

Rome, Italy

Until next time...

Mr. and Mrs. Chris Perry

We had the opportunity to attend the wedding of our high school friends Chris Perry and Amanda Kelly. We were so happy to be able to share their special day with them! It was also great to catch up with friends we hadn't seen in a while. Congrats to Mr. and Mrs. Chris Perry!

GrAdUaTiOn!

So, after 2 years and 4 months of hard work, I have finally graduated physical therapy school! It has been a rough ride and I'm so glad that I have accomplished my goals! I could not have made it through school without the love and support of God, my husband, family, and friends. It has been a great journey and I am so happy to make the amazing friends that I did while in school. I look forward to the next chapter of my life :)

Graduation Party

I took on the responsibility of planning the class graduation party. The school gives the 7th semester students money to have a graduation party. After much deliberation, I decided to have the party at the Groove Cafe. It turned out to be a great success! We had mini crab cakes, meatballs, spinach and artichoke dip, chicken salad wontons, fruit and cheese platter, and tomato and mozzarella skewers. We were also able to have 2 drink tickets per student. Congrats yellow class!!!

Miami

I'm officially done with PT school! So, my friends and I decided to take a road trip to Miami! We had so much fun celebrating, and boy is Miami a "poppin" town! I would love to go back and stay more than a day; however, I need a little more money to spend too (it is an expensive town)! We stayed in a beautiful hotel which had complimentary happy hour :) We then paid $20 a piece to go to a club and have bottle service. Apparently this is a big deal because it costs $40 to get into the club usually. So we enjoyed free drinks and danced the night away since the bars don't close until 5am there. Cheers to finishing PT school!

Finally

Wow! It's been almost 2 months since I've posted! So, I've decided that I'll slowly add the pictures from life lately :) P.S. Today was the official last day of PT school and I graduate on April 13!!!!

So for spring break, Pat and LeAnna came to visit. We went to the Jacksonville Zoo and then went to dinner at PF Changs. We HAD to have dessert at the Cheesecake Factory since it was next door! It was so nice to spend time with them :)
