Long Time No Post... Oops!

Sorry for not posting in awhile!  I have been having way too much fun with a busy schedule- both at work and social life!

In April, Kevin and I went to Puerto Rico with friends Ben and Kelly and Kelly's parents.  We spent one night in Old San Juan and the rest of the trip on the island Culebra and stayed on Flamenco Beach.  It was a great trip with a lot of snorkeling, hiking, and good old relaxing!  Somehow I even made it through without getting a sunburn!

I was pretty excited to go on the trip!
Landing in San Juan!

Kevin, Kelly, Ben and I at one of the forts 
The view from Villa Flamenco Beach where we stayed
The snorkel tree
All of Culebra had beautiful beaches
We took a boat ride with the owner of the villa to Culebrita where the girls hiked to an old light house while the boys went fishing
Earning their keep... The boys caught dinner!
Checking out some of the old war equipment... Culebra was a target practice and had all kinds of cool old things!
The ferry ride from the main island to Culebra was a thrill in itself, there are some good sized waves!
I have made a few trips up to Grand Lake already this summer to see friends, snack on the exclusive fried zucchini and carmel apples, and of course no trip is complete without horses!

Kay and I by the lake!
The water is running rather fast at Adam's Falls
Kay took Moses out for a ride to Lookout
Zeuss is not so into the picture posing
When I'm not at work, I try to get out and have some fun, despite having two left feet, we had a blast dancing and kicking up dust at a number of country concerts this summer!

 Wedding season has hit in full force, with six friends getting married, Kevin and I are doing our best to make it out to celebrate!
Jon and Becky got married in Plymouth, MA
Good times with good friends!  Buddy, Maggie, Jon and Becky at one great wedding!
Yes, we saw Plymouth Rock, but it isn't as photogenic as the Mayflower! 
 Work has been great, I am mainly on post surgical still, but have had a number of "floats" to the Suites and post-partum.  I am blessed with fun coworkers and for the most part some awesome patients.
Krystal and I cashed in on free Cinnabon for nurses week
Krystal is my work twin... We were hired at the same time, are about the same height (or lack of), and are constantly being mixed up by coworkers and patients!  Our boss calls us the floor's minions as we are two of the three "newbies" and being the youngest on the floor we are pretty flexible for scheduling!


Our nursing students gave us a nerf gun to shoot the pulse oximetry alarm with... On slower nights we get some "target practice" in!
 Rose and all of the HealthOne hospitals participated in the AHA Heart Walk downtown, it was a great success!
RMC Team
Nurses Night at the Rockies for some of 6c
And of course to keep me happy and sane, I ride Lucian a couple times a week!

 Hope everyone's summer is going well!  Let me know if you're passing through Denver :)
