2010 Happenings so Far....

As I started putting together this blog at work today, I figured I could put up pictures to explain our life so far at the end of 2009 through 2010.
I got to spend two weeks in KY for Christmas during this past year. (Now that I think about it, I got to spend one week for 2009 and one for 2010....) One of the gifts Tim and I bought for Dad was a shop-vac. Let's just say that Mom was imagining all the possibilities with the new toy. :)
MawMaw and Levi really enjoyed the time I was there. This was taken on Christmas morning, while we were waiting everyone else to arrive. (Mom, Dad, and I stayed with MawMaw and Levi to cook the turkey on location.) Below are more pictures from the family get together. And yes, Elijah is wearing a tutu.


I also got to introduce a new member into the Patel extended family. Jalpaben and Bhavik had their baby in late December (even though he was due in January.) The picture above is me holding little Om just hours old.

Even though Tim didn't get to spend Christmas in KY, he still got presents sent back to him from Mom and Dad. 

Grandpa made a new friend by helping a pigeon that couldn't fly during an ice storm. While Lady spent the cold days curled up on the couch (against Tim's wishes).
Tim and I got spiffied up for church during the cold wet days of February and nursing school school started back full swing with early morning clinicals and four hour lectures.
My psychiatric clinical group bonded pretty well together. I also learned how to put a "rubber hose up your nose (nasogastric tube)."
Our clinical group did a 70's theme party to record our class teaching assignment and watch a psychiatric movie "Rachel Getting Married." There was lots of food and laughs!
Tim and I attended our first Britt Worldwide (BWW) conference in April. It was held downtown Kansas City and was full of excitement/memories.
My first year of nursing school came to a close at the 2010 JCCC Nursing School Graduation. Now, it was our turn to fight for the gown. 
I got to meet Mom's new pups (Annabelle, Isabelle, Rex, and Bess). She only kept Bess and Rex. Plus, Kyle and Jessica's new little girl, Kinley Grace, in June.

That's all the pictures I have for now. When David comes back from  Mittal's baby shower, I will upload more pictures from my camera of July and August!
