update

Sorry no pictures for this post. We haven't been doing much lately. Derrick has his comprehensive oral exams on Wednesday July 6th so we have to stick around so Derrick can study for them. We have been a little lonely with out him around to terribly much but it will get better soon. After his orals He will start his internship, which lasts one year, and then he will graduate!! There is a light at the end of the tunnel. The orals are the last of his school work so no more tests (except his board exam at the end of the internship)!!! We are so excited to be able to see the end for him!

Avarie is doing well and as silly as ever. She is always saying hilarious things like yesterday she asked if we could go to old mcdonalds (McDonald's). she is always cracking us up.

Reid is starting to talk and loving the summer. He adores being outside and walking around picking up stick, rock or dirt. He adores his sister and it doesn't take much for her to make him laugh. He is constantly trying to tickle her, which is really cute.

Me I am hoping to start working PRN (1-3 days per month) in the next few weeks. I will be working at BAMC (the army hospital) in the ER if I can get through the security clearance stuff. ha ha! I have been working on updating the kids room. I made a duvet cover for each of their beds, the pillows, and found/made some decore. It is an old american theme with antique red, off white, and blue with stars. I have it mostly done and will post pictures when it is complete. well that is all for now.

Hugh calls it Old MacDonalds too! He learned it from Emme Duncan. Too cute!

Good work to you AND Derrick on all your accomplishments.

What do you put in a duvet cover? It sounds like a better idea than making a quilt. Hang in there it gets so much better after they finish those tests. We need to talk sometime. I will give you a call.
