Life Lately: Fall 2020

Hey, friends! I thought we may take a few minutes to catch up on life the past few months. I hope everyone is staying safe and healthy!

Celebrating my 30th Birthday

The last weekend of September my sister flew to DC a day early to surprise me for my birthday! It was great to see her and we enjoyed some socially distant/masked/outdoor exploring while she was here.

We went to a beautiful winery and enjoyed a bottle of wine and mountain views.

Enjoyed lunch at the cutest Italian restaurant in Georgetown! We got to sit at the upstairs patio under the umbrella.

On my actual birthday, Bradley and I went to the Smithsonian’s National Zoo, had a picnic on the lawn in from of The Capital, and then came home to enjoy a sushi dinner. It was the perfect 2020 birthday.

Declan’s First Camping Trip

After my birthday, we drove to Shenandoah National Park. We stayed two nights and it was so fun and I’m proud to say Declan did so well! He slept all night curled up in the tent and did great on our 6 plus mile hike.

1 Year Anniversary

October 12 we celebrated our one year wedding anniversary with an at home seafood boil! It’s hard to believe it’s been a year since we were married.

Very thankful to have this amazing person to do life and adventure with!

Halloween at Camp Culbertson

We had our first Halloween in our tiny home (RV). Of course, everything looks different this year. We did get to decorate and leave some candy (and hand sanitizer 😉 ) for our socially distant trick or treaters!

 

End of Contract #2

I have officially finished my second contract as a travel nurse! It was an extension of my my first travel contract in Washington, D.C. I was offered a third extension, but I declined. We have loved DC and we are sad to leave, but we are excited to continue our travel adventure in a new place! I have signed a contract and will be sharing our next stop soon!

My sister is engaged!

I received the best FaceTime call a couple weeks ago from the top of a mountain- my sister was engaged! Her ring is gorgeous and we love her fiancé Nick. I can’t wait to officially have him as part of the family!

Thanks for joining in on my little recap of life the past few months. We now get to pack up the tiny home and head back to Greenville for a few weeks before heading to travel nurse assignment #3! I can’t wait to share where we will be heading next!

I know 2020 is a heck of a year, but what is something GOOD that has happened for you this fall? It can be big or small! We celebrate all the victories around here. 🙂
