Its always fun to start a new with looking ahead, and remembering the past…today is our 4th anniversary! It cracks both of us that we’ve been married for 4 years, it doesn’t seem like that long.
And looking ahead, we’re excited about 2012. The year 2011 was a stressful year with jobs and school (we’ve decided that both of us being in school at the same time should never ever happen again!) but good things are coming in 2012.
Becka
- I start my new job as an ICU nurse on January 18th. I’m so very excited to be back in patient care, albeit with some anxiety about everything I need to learn or re-learn. Training is 3+ months which will have to be balanced with school!
- School continues on! I’m considering changing to the Family Nurse Practitioner program, but am undecided…three weeks to consider before my appointment with my academic advisor!
My messy office!
Will
- Now that he has his MBA, Will is looking to see where that could take him within Mayo. He’s been looking for Analyst positions, either within Patient Account Services (the area he is in now) or Patient Access (the area he was in when he was with Transplant).
- He has spare time now, so he’s been getting more into hunting. He and my Dad weren’t able to do their annual South Dakota trip but they’ve been scoping out new hunting locations in the area.

Our House
- Our house to-do list feels so small compared to last years! This year we would like to get a new roof for the garage, a carpet runner on the stairs, finish painting the trim, and get a new storm door for the back door. We could get that done by March, right??
Travel
- We have three vacation times for next year! We’ll be going to Jacksonville, Birmingham, and Little Rock for our Southern trip(s), and we’re considering a trip to Alaska to visit my sister Jennifer!
Lots of good things coming, and we’re looking forward to a great year!
