white coat ceremony

Last Monday erik had his white coat ceremony. 

Parks and i were very glad that we got to be there.  Parks ate lots of fruit snacks during the ceremony. 

At the white coat ceremony all of the new students got to walk across the stage and have the new coat put on them.

 

it is so fun erik is now official a

"student doctor"

* we are so proud of our dad and think that he is the best.  he took his first test this week and did amazing*

(i know my arm looks huge)

summer rain

we went to the lake tonight to feed the ducks.  it started to  rain.   so we had to run home. 

i love summer rain. 

i love the smell the sound and the feel as the
big fat drops

splash to the ground

Arizona

* We finally made it to arizona.  Parks loves the new house, he acts like it is christmas everytime that we unload a new box.  He spent most of the day today trying to get someone to put monsters inc on for him. 

Dad put it on a computer and parks thought it was the coolest thing ever.

 Later that day when he wanted to watch it again he made me put the computer

in the exact same spot.

* Parks also discovered the tupperware cupboard about three minuets after i unpacked it. 

 now he keeps leaving me

little stacks of cups!!!

* Last night as we were getting parks ready for bed, we all sat on the couch and dad read us a story, the second that it ended parks jumped off of the couch and ran as fast as he could to his room to get another one.  He came running back with the biggest smile on his face. (he kept doing it again and again)

* Erik is loving medical school, he loves his teachers, his classmates, and everthing that they are learning.  He has his first test on monday so he is studying like crazy. 

i almost forgot we had a little "uh oh" with the cookies.

i left to go to girls camp on wednesday morning. Wednesday night erik came up to tell me that he had just got accepted to A.T. Still in Arizona.  He then told me that we had to be there by Monday.  We are moving tonight.

* the roadrunners *

for the past three years my dad has had season tickets to the roadrunners.  parks loves going the games

he likes to hold the ticket and find the giant birds. 

but his very favorite part

is the treats.
