Well I'm back. I've been busy catching up on life after our great trip to Greece. I've given up trying to blog about each day. I'm a failure. So you can read my Dad's account here. But I'll show you the best part. Pictures!

And We're Off...
I've had a great week of vacation in Ohio. Hence the lack of blogging. But now we're off on the big trip! 13 days in Greece and Turkey. I shall return with loads of pictures and hopefully more of a tan then I have now!

Well I survived boards. It wasn't nearly as bad as I had anticipated, but then again, everything I say always has the disclaimer that I may not have passed. But hopefully it is over and done with. I have to wait 6 weeks for my scores, which confuses me beyond belief. It's computerized....so why the long wait?
My first weekend of freedom was fun. Friday we went to a Royals game. After the game was the largest fireworks display in Kansas City's history. Unfortunately, it wasn't anything more spectacular than 4th of July displays when I'm back home, but I did get some cool new shots. Then we went to Shannon's birthday party. It was really nice seeing everyone after we all hunkered down to study for the past month.
Saturday we went shopping. For the last year my camera has a smudge on it.
See it? Really irritating, right? Ruins a nice picture. So I take it to a camera shop to see about it getting cleaned/fixed. Bad, BAD idea. It was going to be just $45 to look at my camera...that's not even opening it up/cleaning/fixing the part. And no guarantee it could be fixed. The lady basically told me it wasn't worth it, just go buy a new one. Ugh.
But the good news is I leave for home in less than a week. Our trip to Greece is just around the corner. I even got a few lunches with friends planned for the week. And now on to the cool shots I got at the Royals game.

Boards TOMORROW
Well this is my last day of studying. I take boards tomorrow, which is scary, exciting, nerve wracking, OMG all wrapped up into one! So prayers and happy thoughts from 9-5 tomorrow will be much, MUCH appreciated.
Also, say a big prayer for all of those people effected by the flooding in Iowa City and Cedar Rapids. It is very surreal to see places I walked everyday underwater now. I really wish I could be there to help.

Congratulations!
My sister graduated from high school today. I told her a couple days ago that it made me feel like I'm 50...and I was only half joking. I can't believe how fast she grew up.
Congratulations Alli! Wish I could have been there.
I'm sure you looked beautiful in your cap and gown.
And walked, not rode, across the stage with your head held high.
And then gave Mom and Dad dirty looks when they took too many pictures.
I love you and am very proud of you!

We're Not in Kansas Anymore
Is it bad that I've lived here for nearly two years and I can't pick out my county on the weather map? I'm going with yes.
