Last week of college?

Hello everyone :) Hope you have had a great week and weekend.

This past Wednesday I presented a semester long nursing project with my clinical group. It was a fun (but long) morning of lots of presentations as our whole nursing class presented their projects that they have worked on throughout the semester.

Here we are :)

We have had quite the temperature change. Thursday I woke up in Winona to SNOW and lots of it! It was the weirdest thing to see snow in May.... so naturally I had to use our snowmen mugs for coffee, and turn on our holiday lights.
Our holiday festivities at 619 Grand St....in May!

Fast forward a bit to only to Saturday, three days later, and the snow is completely gone already. So many people said they woke up to the sound of rain, only to figure out it was actually the sun melting all the snow off the roofs. Too funny. I ran today in shorts and I was hot. Such a temperature difference, its bizarre. Lets hope there is not snow on the ground later this week for my pinning ceremony and graduation (doesn't look like it, thankfully).

This weekend I had a great time with some great friends that I will truly miss down here in Winona. 

 Having fun at Gabby's :)

 One of our nursing songs came on. So sentimental.
Don't Stop Believin' By Journey 

Great times. Good laughs, and good memories.

This past weekend was just what I needed...great times with good friends. I cannot believe how fast life is flying by! I am excited for graduation, and the next chapter of my life, but I am going to miss my friends here so much. Its coming up fast. 

In my previous post, I explained how I only have one more day at the daycare that I work at. I decided to make a craft for the wonderful head teacher who I work for in the baby room. I am going to miss her and all of our good times. She is such a great teacher and has taught me so much in the three years I have worked there. 

My Teacher Craft!

I got this idea off of Pinterest. I saw this cute idea of having flowers and a note that says:

If Teachers Were Flowers, I'd Pick You!

I thought this would be a great idea to give to her in honor of her being the head teacher for the room we work in. I went to the dollar store and spent a grand total of $3.21 (tax included) on this project. I used index cards and some nice markers to write the message and found a stick outside to glue the message on to to put inside with my vase of flowers. The vase, rocks, and flowers cost $1 each, making this craft such an affordable, thoughtful gift. I am so excited to give it to her this Tuesday when I work. It was an easy project and did not take much time to make at all.
