FLORIDA!!!
























































We are here and settled in. JR started school this week and is very busying studying for his first test which is on Tuesday. If you have the time send him a text or email to route him on! I started work at the new hospital and have been in computer training h%&$ all week. They have the same computer system that my previous hospital had so I know all of the tricks and have been soooooo bored in class all week. This weekend we decided to take some time and check out one of the local beaches. Ft. DeSoto National Park is a great park that has a dog beach that some of my new co-workers recommended. So we packed it up, baby, doggy, beach tent and all and headed to the dog beach. It is close it took us about 20 minutes to get there, and 85cents in tolls. We got all unpacked and headed to the beach. There was tons of dogs there and surprisingly Casey did really well around the other dogs and thier owners. She beelined for the water and swam and swam for three hours. Adam also had a great time "swimming" in the water. He is just mesmerized by Casey, he could spot her out of all of the other dogs and would not take his eyes off of her the whole time she was playing. Casey is also very protective of Adam and us. Anytime we would go and take Adam down in the water she would spot us and start swimming towards us. So Casey met a lot of new doggy friends and we will for sure go back, because she has been sleeping for hours now! I am posting the cutest picture of a pug that was surfing and "carried" his own surf board around the beach. It was really attached to his harness and he was inadvertenally dragging it behind him, but it was so cute. Casey did not know what to think of that little dog surfing, but she sure did enjoy watching him on his surf board.

Anyway...say prayers for luck for JR on his test, and for me starting the real work on the unit this week. I am a little nervous because I have not really ever been anything other than a NICU nurse and I am in a different unit now. I am working in the cardiovascular ICU at a free standing pediatric hospital, so even though most of the patients are babies, it is totally different than what I have been doing...more to come
