Anticipation


In just a few weeks, Vance will take his last final and I will leave my job. Then we are going to say peace to Illinois and leave for Utah. Vance just got accepted to do research in a lab at BYU so we get to go back a lot sooner than expected. Excited? Absolutely I am.

It is hard to believe that Vance is almost finished with his first year of med school. He has done really well and he has learned a lot. He learned how to suture the other day and I think that he is secretly hoping that I will cut myself so he can sew me up. On an exciting note, Vance just had his first medical case study published and presented it at a research symposium. He presented on an unusual surgery case about a patient with a hernia the size of a basketball. I will say it again, I am really glad I am not in med school.

March Madness

March was a super busy/crazy/fun month for us. I made a quick trip to Utah for Sarah's wedding. It was fabulous! (I stole your picture Tricia, thanks!)


We celebrated St. Patrick's Day of course! Gus was a fan.
We made a quick trip to Alabama to visit Sophie, Jenn, and Jake.


To top it all off, we went on a on fabulous trip to the "Big Easy" with Joy and John. It was complete with gators, gumbo, and ghosts.
