Sick Husband...

So Bryan woke up sick Thursday morning, worked half a day and has been home laid up ever since. We went to the doctor Friday. We usually wait till we feel like we are dying to go to the doctor. But not this time. We were going to do the right thing and go to the doctor right away in hopes this would help. The doctor did the strep. and flu test. (If you have to get the flu test be prepared..they stick a huge q-tip up your nose till it goes to the back of your throat {glad it wasn't me} !!) Well doc said both tests came back negative, but he said Bryan probably has the flu, but just caught it early! ha. So I guess that's a good thing, who knows! Hopefully the fever, body aches, sore throat, scratchy throat and headaches will go away soon and I will not be infected! Poor thing.

So Busy!!!

Sorry for not posting in a million years. We have been crazy, busy at the Vaughn household. Currently I am doing my 2nd field placement for grad. school. I am working at Children's Medical Center in Dallas. It has been amazing! I am loving every minute of it and learning sooo soo much! I am following/working with trauma, orthopedics, and urology kiddos. (Which I love) I am even more excited to do be done with school and working! So why so busy you might ask yourself...I spend a minumum of 35 hours at the hospital every week, have 1 night class in Arlington, and then work about 10 hours for Burns & Wilcox! Somewhere in between that I have to find time for blogging, homework, working out and of course my sweet husband. Good thing, maybe, he is just as crazy right now with schools starting back up. He is in charge of all of the class meetings for ring and senior presentations. (And does an amazing job!) But they have lots of parent nights throughout the week and they early mornings up at the school to sell rings right now! So needless to say when we do spend time together lately it has got to be quality! :)

This past weekend Bryan went to Austin with VCM for their fall advance. He was so excited and came back and shared amazing testimonies of the weekend and great things that God was doing in these zealous college students lives. It was so fun to hear about.

Besides that, we are just looking forward to getting involved with a small group this semester at our church. That should be starting really soon. We are hoping that Bryan's family will be making a trip out here soon to visit! And last, but not least, I have hit the -25lbs mark. Yes, it has taken me forever it seems like, but I am just taking it 1 day at a time and learning throughout this entire process. It has defintly been worth the process and I never want to be back at that weight again!!! I am so excited about where I have come from and where I am going! Right now my goal is 14 more lbs! I will keep ya posted on how that continues to go!!! By the end of the year I should be where I want to be! Yay!!! Think that is all the news right now.

Also be checking out this blog! :) Tell someone about it.

FUN TIMES!!!

Bryan and I had a great weekend with Bryan's brother, Lee and sister-in-law, Kasey. Their flights got changed so they got here Friday morning. Kasey and I had to work and Bryan took Lee to see his office and around Frisco. Friday night we introduced Lee and Kasey too La Hacienda! YUM! All I have to say is that we killed some queso! (This weekend was not very conducive for my weight watchers!!) Saturday we slept in. Man, did that feel good! We all slept in and spent the day in Fort Worth. We enjoyed walking around Sundance Square, and then enjoyed the Rodeo at the stockyards. Sunday we got to take them to our church, which was fun for them to see where we have been going and then did some shopping! oh yea! Basically our weekend consisted of a lot of eating, a lot of shopping and a lot of laughing! What more could we ask for.

We dropped them off at the airport this afternoon and we are already looking forward to their next trip out here. It wasn't our annual Labor Day New York trip (which we all will be doing next year :) But it was great!
