A little update for what is to come this month: Eric will be starting his 3rd rotation. He will be at St. Luke' s in the medical center. I am so excited about him getting to experience the medical center, but I know he is a little nervous. He isn't one to enjoy city life = He will be at St. Luke's from Valentine's Day until the first week in May. The end is so close...yet it is very bittersweet.
We have been lucky enough to get to see everyone a lot lately since they haven't had class much and everyone is living closer to us, not in Galveston anymore. The boys have played golf many times, had some "guys nights out", a fish fry, dinners together, celebrating Brandi's birthday with an awesome dinner and night of dancing, visiting the trailer, and spending the last few cold days together at Scott's parent's house enjoying some good food and company.
We are planning on seeing Brandi and Drew over Spring Break. We are looking forward to knowing when we will see them again. The end is so close...yet it is very bittersweet. We have made some incredible friends that will not being staying around this area after Eric graduates. When Eric first got accepted to UTMB in September 2007, I never imagined what our life would become. Here we are 3 1/2 years later and our lives have been changed forever.
