I forgot to add these, Kobe and mom.

Just a few pics of Kobe and his cuteness. Some old ones and some of us recently at Nathaniel Greene Park :)

 

Exciting update... I, (Alli), have decided to go to nursing school!! I will be taking prereq's at OTC in the Spring, Summer, and Fall and if all goes as planned I will be enrolled in the accelerated nursing program in Spring 2011. I will be completed with school and be a registered RN by Spring 2012!! I finally feel like I am doing something that will make me happy and that I should have gone for in the first place. I am so incredibly lucky to have such a supportive husband. He is hoping to get this drafting internship he has applied for and be in a full-time drafting job by the time I start the nursing program! (I won't be able to work :( ) We are keeping our fingers crossed and saying a prayer that we get this grant-funded scholorship for the program of $10,000.  The only stipulation is that if I get it, I have to only go to school on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday and I will be in school those three days for 8-12 hours. YIKES! I am okay with it though it it means $10,000. There is also a great program through Cox hospital and I will sign a promissory note and they will pay $2,500 a semester up to $10,000 for every year I work with them after I graduate. There are only two hospitals here so of course I will probably work at Cox anyways, it is a great deal!! James is finishing up his drafting degree next semester and he we are excited about this as well! Life is good, we are blessed. Cannot wait to see everyone for the Holidays!!

YAY, finally a home with just the three of us. Here are a few pics or our new home and our furniture. :) 

We have the sweetest landord and she lives with her 74 year old mother right next door to us! We did have a flea issue but it was taken care of promptly and Kobe is no longer miserable, or James for that matter. Bugs LOVE his blood... James had about 50 bites!! 

We wanted to join the blogging!!

Yay, James and I finally decided to set up a blog! As newlyweds, we are so excited to be starting our life together and recently found our first place! It is a very nice duplex that we were very lucky to find. An older lady (she is 74!) owns the duplex and lives right next to us with her daughter, who is 50 and living with her temporarily to take care of her. We have already gotten to know them a little and they are the sweeetest people. We are SO lucky! We move in October 1st and we will post pictures. :) The long search for a home is finally over. Oh, and of course Kobe has a little yard and a friend next door. I am still searching for a job and James is still finishing school but I hope to find something soon. In the meantime, I am still serving Sushi at Haruno and making all the money I can. I am out for now, but I will update soon! Oh, and Katie and Matt, I am SO happy for you and cannot WAIT to meet my beautiful nephew!!!!
