hey ya'll

It's been a great week. I'm on vacation, and so my Mom came to visit for 5 days. We had a blast, as usual, and here's some of what we did together:

-went to my fabulous gym
-went to Devon street with my friend Ami for a delicious Indian lunch and where my Mom bought a gorgeous sari (there you go Ami, an official shout out to you!)
-then the 3 of us went to see Marc play in Les Mis, it was so good (hey Cedarville friends, remember when we saw it for the first time together? I fell in love with it then and love it even more now. That was such a fun night!)
-went to church and then out to eat at Carnivale (the best skirt steak ever) with our friends Joel and Vicki
-shopped, of course
-walked around outside, just enjoying the wonderful spring weather
-walked a dog from the animal shelter
-had Ami over to make us Indian Chai tea, the real deal, ooooh and aaaaah'd over her wedding pics
-tried out some new recipes
-went to my ballet class
-watched movies and stayed up late, it was like a 5 day sleepover!

I'll post a picture of us on the way to the airport, both wearing my Mom's bright lipstick (I just wanted to see what it would look like on me), she's a very colorful person!

Last night I hung out with some peeps from work, they are hilarious. And the guys were cool to let Ami and I play dress up. You'll have to see the pics.

P.S. For those of you asking about how boards went, they were long but over! It went fine I believe, I was pretty ready to take it. It feels so good to be done because from here on out, every test I will take will be just ophtho, no more gen med stuff! Thanks!

So I'm having problems getting the pictures on here, I'll try again soon.....

My first turkey

A slightly traumatizing experience- involving gibblets and pliers and feathers and strange body cavities- but ultimately a delicious and rewarding experience!
