A New Start

Bk and I have made it thru our first week at med school here in Milwaukee (if orientation counts). I decided it might be a good idea to start a blog of this exciting adventure we are embarking on. My intentions are slowly forming into actions :o) hopefully I can keep up with it.  Bk had a week full of orientation filled with tours of the school, financial aid packets, background checks I could go on with all the excitement. We got here with our trailer full of stuff that Bk's parents were gracious enough to drive up here with us last Sunday, and left just yesterday for their 3 day journey back to Utah.  It was so fun to have them here this first week to help us get all settled and to explore the city together. We did manage to make it to the movies twice eat out several times which have made me feel so yuck. Bk and I took his mom to Lake Michigan while his dad stayed at the apt to rest. It is a really pretty place in some places and gets pretty sketchy in others. This whole experience of moving away from "home" has really put into perspective the importance of my family, and how grateful I am for the family I married into.  Monday Bk starts with school, I am onto finding a job.... oh goodie.
