Closer and closer!

We realized today that we will officially be leaving Pikeville and moving to Northern KY in exactly ONE MONTH! It is so exciting and crazy to think that after two long years, we will finally be moving back closer to family and friends! That being said, it seemed like the perfect time for us to reflect on the past 2 and a half years of our lives and how much everything has changed.....



Starting from the beginning.



October 2006: Dawn is accepted into Pikeville College of Osteopathic Medicine! Yay!

December 2006: Nick begins working at Pikeville Medical Center.

March 10, 2007: Nick and Dawn become husband and wife! "you may now kiss the bride!" :)

July 2007: First year of medical school begins (and with that, what seems like the longest two years of our lives....)

January 2008: Nick and Dawn find out they are about to become a family of 3!! Yay!!

April 8, 2008: Dawn cuts her finger trying to separate pork chops with a butter knife... :(

April 12, 2008: Nick and Dawn are in an accident (caused by a man in a high speed police chase who had just killed someone for drugs.) Everyone is okay, but Dawn gets an ambulance ride and an ultrasound just in case. (The Ford Escape, however is not-so-okay and is taken to the Ford Dealership for some front passenger side body work.... and no the murderer did not have insurance and yes we paid our $500 deductable) Wow....AND we missed Brian and Jessica's wedding (and so did half the guests who were unfortunate enough to be behind us on our way from Pikeville to Whitesburg.)

April 17, 2008: Dawn has her cut tendon repaired in Lexington while NOT under general anesthesia (just a local...the axillary block missed too!)

June 2008: First Year of Medical School officially over!!

August 2008: Second Year of Medical School begins!

September 12, 2008: Noah is born!!!! Such a blessing!!!! God is so good!!!!

March 2009: We find out we will be moving closer to home for rotations! Christ Hospital here we come!!

May 2009: We decide to buy a house in Hebron, KY! We love it!

June 2009: Second Year is over, but boards are coming up in July....pray for good scores!!!! :)



That pretty much sums up the past 2 years (in a nutshell) and we are so thankful and blessed to be where we are right now. We are so excited to be moving up closer to our family and friends and can't wait to start this new chapter in our lives!



A picture of Noah to end this post.... ENJOY!
