My favorite nurse in the whole world is named Nicole. She was one of Jakes nurse's in the Heart Unit and we became really close friends. She is now one of my closest friends. I can call her for ANYTHING and she is always willing to listen and help!
Well, one of my friends suggested we nominate her for the March of Dimes Nurse of the Year. I thought it was a GREAT idea, so we did! Out of over 400++ entries, Nicole was a FINALIST!! She was SO nice to invite me to be one of her guests for the Dinner. It was a black tie affair and REALLY nice.
It was SO fun to go and be there to support her. She unfortunately didn't win (even though I think she should have), most of the other nominees had been nominated by supervisors or other colleagues. I think she was one of the only ones to be nominated by a patient!! It was fun hanging out with Tara and Tim!! :)
This is my sister, Katie's dress. We all call it the Cha Cha dress. It was really fun to wear. Thanks, Katie, for letting me wear it! And, thanks for the adorable red shoes! They are SO FUN too!! Thanks, Shelley, for the adorable purse! It went with my outfit perfectly!
Anyways, I had a GREAT time. Congrats, Nicole. I think you are AMAZING!! I'm so glad we are such great friends. I'm glad Jake brought us together.

Congrats Nicole, she was absolutely amazing with our Tyson! Love her!
You look beautiful!!
You are both babes...as usual. She's #1 nurse as far as I'm concerned and was very deserving of the award. Although, she doesn't need a piece of paper to be one of the most thoughtful, selfless people I know. Jakey and Jersey were lucky indeed!!
You guys look amazing. I'm glad they made it a special night! Nicole, you r the best! And Liz, thx for nominating her.
You are so great to nominate her! You had a great idea AND followed through... a lesson for me :) You look beautiful!
We all know who should've won..:) I'm sure that made her feel good, and have a small idea of how much she has meant to so many of us..
