Bathroom Makeover

My mom and mother-in-law have been patiently waiting for these photos. After passing my boards, I decided to remodel our bathroom (with the help from handyman John). My dad helped us change the light fixture when he was here for graduation. The rest of the remodel included painting, getting rid of the horrible medicine cabinet that looked like an electrical box, and changing out the countertop, sink and faucet. ENJOY!

Big Changes at the Johnson house!

It would take me days to talk about everything that has happened since my last post (I know...October was 5 months ago) so I'll give the highlights.

In December, I GRADUATED from PA school!!! My family came out to Toledo for the ceremony and to celebrate with us.

The day after graduation, Steve and I left to go to Lewiston to spend Christmas with the Johnsons. We spent the week after Christmas in Pocatello with my family. It was a busy two weeks full of family, friends, food, snowboarding and the Zags!!

After 3 weeks back in the library studying, I took my board exam on Jan 22. Two days later, I was in the car driving to New York City to spend some time with Becky and Caroline.

Now I am adjusting to life post-school. I accepted a job at the hospital here in trauma surgery and although it will still be a few weeks until my license and credentials are finalized, I have been able to do some shadowing shifts. I am looking forward to working, cooking more, reading for fun, blogging more, and running a half-marathon in April with Erin!
