Well we are back from our pre-anniversary/rental finding trip! We had a blast so it seemed like we were on a 4 day long date night!! We did miss the kids too but knew they were having too much fun with Grandma to worry any.
I would say we had a successful trip. On day 1 we found an awesome rental that we will more than enjoy. My favorite part is the big FENCED in back yard with a built in fire pit(our kids live for sitting around the fire as a family roasting marshmallows) so I imagine there will be many of those nights. The neighbors are super friendly and we are told there are 24 kids in our cul da sac. When we got there, there were 5 little boys playing hockey.
I was most excited to find out that Avery's kindergarten is all day but it will be every other day!!!! Yay....In my opinion that is perfect! I may be crazy, but I will take as much time as I can get before 1st grade and all day school begins! I just don't think all day kindergarten is totally necessary at this age. Again, my opinion. So I am trilled! She is such a bright little girl and makes friend so easy that I know she will have a blast. I was also told that she has 10 little girls her age at church. She will be in heaven!!!
I never imagined Cincinnati would be so beautiful. It also has every store known to man. I laughed at their goodwill. It looked like a very nice boutique. I will have to post a pic when we move there. The nicest goodwill I've ever seen.
Eric and I ate at all the famous restaurants and stopped at the infamous Graeters ice cream. We stayed up until 1am(playing scrabble on the ipad...our new couples game that I must say I enjoy)and we slept in until 9 or 10. I always wondered how long I could sleep in without kids. It was fun for a few days!!
Anyways...I am now enjoying time with my mom. She is so much fun and we have loved having her here. Tomorrow we will be having a mother daughter outing for our mothers day together a little early. Can't wait!!! It's been a while since we have been able to celebrate together. We are so much a like so you can imagine how much fun we can create together. She is also my sewing partner in crime and we had a great time creating the cutest decor pillow for my bench. It turned out awesome and it only cost 2.00 to make!! We rock mom....can't wait for the many creations we will make together in the near future!!!!
We have been so blessed in our married years to have lived in Chicago, Madison, and now Cincinnati. We have been blessed to meet so many wonderful people that will forever be our friends and literally our family since we have been so far from our own families. It's always hard to say goodbye, but I am so glad to have met such wonderful people and created such wonderful memories. I am grateful for med school and residency for that reason alone. I have been so grateful for all the experiences we have had, things I have learned, and ways I have grown in each these wonderful places. It is really surreal that residency is almost over. I don't think it will hit me until our graduation dinner where both of our parents will attend to celebrate Eric and his great achievements! He is one amazing man!!!! I am so proud of him and feel so blessed to have married such an incredible guy. I love him so much. I feel like we can conquer anything together. I am excited for our future. He is my best friend. We get each other through the hard times, support each other in everything we do, and have lot's of fun in between. I love the now and can't wait for the future together!
