Baby Wesley




So its officially true "Dont't drink the water in Trident ED, unless of course you want to be a mommy! Or should I say avoid the charge nurse chair at all cost. ha No but really, 6 of the last 7 nurses who have sat in that chair and played charge nurse of the ED are either expecting now or have just had a baby. Its craziness I tell you. Not only that, but both of my sister in-laws are now expecting as well. I cant keep up, I can only tell you just about all them are due sometime between September and October. Glenda, the wonderful nurse I had the privelege to work with during my night shifts just had her baby boy on May 13th, his name is Wesley Port Royael, he weighs 6 lbs 12 oz. He is beautiful.

Ellery Horse Races






Ellery hosts the Quarter Races every year, meaning the horses only run a quarter of the track. Jerry and his family have had a reserved lot at the races for as long as Jerry can remember. Its a family tradition for them to cookout and enjoy the races every year. The family and friends enjoy making small bets among the family throughout the race. There were a few ladies who took part in the hat decorating contest as well, so cute. Seth and I had a lot of fun. Jerry's little family reunions are always a usually interesting yet always delightful experience.

29 more days






Kacy is getting married!! A few weeks ago, we celebrated Kacy preparing to get married to the fabulous Brett Bladergroan. Paige planned a wonderful weekend here in Charleston, filled with laughter, toasts, sexy dances, pictures, dinner, lingerie, shopping, funny dancing, and many memories. I am so honored to be a part of Kacy's wedding, she is such an incredible girl and is going to make the most elegant, classy and perfect wife for Brett, he's a lucky guy. =)

Roomies reunited (minus one...meg =( )






























I finally made it out to LA! It was so much fun! It was awesome to finally see where my long lost roomies are living and what they do every day. As usual Jocelyn had a pretty fabulous itinerary planned for us, which I always love. A perfect vacation, filled with reminiscing about the college days over a glass (or a bottle) of wine, tandem bicycling, broadway plays, Jay Leno, sushi, hockey games, gymnastics meets, shopping, cupcakes, laying out in Laguna, and laughing til your stomach hurts...I miss you girls

Be the Change


I am officially at the bottom of Jocelyn's blog list, meaning I am at true slacker when it comes to this blogging thing. Yikes, christmas was the last attempt, not good. I will get better. Promise. It's this dinosaur of a computer that I am working with these days, (I kind of feel an attachment to it, it has been through a lot during our fabulous college years) I mean two hours just to turn the thing on, its not easy to document my life under these circumstances. ha Anyway, all is well here is the sunny low country of Summerville, SC. I will supply more pictures soon. I have started working night shifts at the hospital and now I'm all twist- turned upside down. I do like it though, gives you a lot more of a chance to get to know the doctors and other nurses better and we all know I love getting to know people. Seth and I will be taking a trip to Guatemala in June, with Faceless International. Faceless is an organization who together sees the potential that we have in making change in the world. The trips are organized with the desire to provide first-hand real world experiences of what is happening throughout the world and to educate people to see that we need to be the change that we want to see in the world. While there we will have the chance to work with the Hue-Hue ministries and learn about the importance of guaranteeing fair trade for the coffee growers. We also will be helping build a clinic to provide the necessary healthcare for the farmers and their families.
