Hawaii 2012

I was fortunate to get a new grad nursing job even before graduating nursing school! In this economy, I could not be more thankful.

I wanted to show my family how much I appreciate their love, support, and money. My mom have hardly any savings, retirement funds, and how several thousands to a few people. I paid, in part, for them to go to Hawaii! My parents first time ever=D I never thought I'd come back to hawaii looking like this. I bought baggy dresses and it took me 3 hours to shop for a bathing suit. And even then, I was popping out of it! Freaking water. Somehow it shrinks the bathing suits! I wouldn't even take pictures. To this day, for the past 3 years, their are only tens of pictures of me. I'd say like 50. I don't ever want to remember myself like this. I don't want my kids to ever look at my pictures and see their mom this big.
