The Latest and Greatest

Well, it's been a whirlwind here, as is evident by our lack of blogging. John has been working crazy-hard at school in order to finish four papers by today. He's had class and work almost non-stop the past two weeks. And I have just finished finals week of my THIRD quarter! Only one quarter left to go before I start clinical rotations this June.

And so now we will relax....we're headed to the Ozarks in Arkansas tomorrow for a 4-day backpacking trip. Accompanying us are my brother, Aaron, my sister, Jess, and Chelsea, my friend from school. We are so excited to get out of town, head south, and be in the quiet wilderness.

Other highlights from the week include...

A trip to the Shedd Aquarium [mostly because it was a free admission day]


My first cross-country skiing adventure [aside from high school gym class]
