{the humidity, the ghetto, the crazies, being poor students..on and on}

 

Landon's White Coat Ceremony

 {Derek, Jared, Landon, Cory, Jared }

Landon is now officially a Student Doctor. I am so proud of him!! He has worked so hard these past two years {I cant believe that two years have already gone by...crazy!!} He has done really well in school and still manages to find lots of time to spend with me. He has the courage and passion to go for his dreams.... and because of that he will always achieve them. We have loved our experience out here so far and look forward to many more great times. 2 down and just 5 more to go. You Rock My World L, Love you so much!!!

I looked out the window and what did i see...?

No not blossoms.....

Damn Snow Flurries!!!!

What happened to spring, and the sunshine, and fresh flowers, and my motivation to do anything {but sit on the couch} 

I need the sunshine to come and bring me some creative flow, and give my skin a nice glow, and turn this frown up side down.... 

and if it doesn't happen fast, I'm heading out of town, and I will!! 

{this is just a warning}

So come on Sun and come on Spring, Come do your Thing!!!

Its Official....

We finally did it, 

we are officially Pennsylvanians. 

It took us almost 2 years,

okay like a year and a half,

not a big deal.

{feb. 25th - march 5th}

Costa Rica {year 2}
      &
Anniversary {year 2}

 {i tried to only pick a few pictures, out of the 1000, it was really hard.}

We started the trip off in the small town {they are all small towns} Esterillos. The place we stayed was ideal, beautiful grounds, right on the beach.... and a pool {my favorite part, shh don't tell}

 

Then we journeyed {and i mean journey, a 2 hour drive then an hour and a half on a very rough dirt road.... it was quite the experience to say the least. But well worth the torture. To the very very small town of Pavones

It's considered the 2nd longest left hand break in the world. And really, it goes on forever and its smooth and beautiful and really fast. Landon was in heaven.

we stayed in a beautiful little place, tucked in the jungle but you could still hear the waves crashing at night. I love that sound. 

And then back to Dominical. 

{for some reason the drive back wasn't nearly as bad as the drive in}Thank goodness!!!

We were lucky enough to stay in a beautiful home up on the hill, {thanks to a friend of landons dad} with a stunning view, and a pool, and comfy beds, indoor/outdoor showers, the whole front of the house was glass doors that opened up so you really felt one with nature {bugs, frogs, birds, you name it}.... the list could go on and on but mmmm it was good.

Just having a little R&R pool time.

The food is amazing!!! so fresh and delicious. We've yet to be let down. 

I wish I could start every morning with this 

Breakfast of Champions.

how cute is my little surfer boy???

A Perfect Sunset
to end a Perfect Vacation

and A Wonderful 2 years of being married

Happy Anniversary.
