Updates + Monday Madness Link Up 7.20.15

Boy, oh boy! There has been a lot going on.


I graduated! I completed all my course work, the certification exam, and my externship. So, I can officially say that I am a register medical assistant! Also, I had multiple interviews last week. I've decided to join a team at an ENT (ears, nose, and throat) office. I am so excited to get started at the beginning of August!


My sister came from Pennsylvania for my graduation so we got to spend some much time together!


We headed to Eastown for a painting class, a walk by Reed Lake, and a sweet treat at Jersey Junction.









My sister Courtney.


We also had a great beach day in Grand Haven and yummy lunch right on the water!



Tempura Shrimp... mmmmm!

We also made a fire and had s'mores and visited Anna's House, a breakfast place, that I've been wanting to go to.



Where's my s'more, Mom?



My graduation was last week Monday. My husband and sister were there along with my parents-in-law and one of my brothers-in-law.



Congrats ladies!




After the ceremony we went to Stella's downtown with my school BFF and her family.



Nick's brother and my sister.

I got a new phone for graduation! It's the Galaxy S5 which is 12 steps up from what I was using. My sister also got me an amazing birthday gift... 
 Kate Middleton paper dolls!!!

Make sure to have a fantastic week - and link up below!
