Where in the world.....

SO....
Today was MATCH day! We know where we will be spending the next 5 years and where we will create memories for the rest of our lives.

Craig matched into a Urology program at Pontiac Hospital in DETROIT, MICHIGAN!! We are very excited. Craig is much relieved to have obtained a highly competitive position in Urology. I am so proud of him...I knew he would do it!

What a relief to match somewhere! Not that I doubted Craig or anything . . . We lived just north of Detroit one summer for Diego's internship at Chrysler. If you need some tips on fun things for the summer, I can help. Luckily for me, I was never there in the winter. It was amazingly beautiful in the summer.

Wow that is awesome!! Tell Craig congrats from Chance and I, and I think we saw his twin in the air port a few weeks ago on our way to Seattle! It was weird, I wanted to stop and say hi but Chance told me he didn't think it was him...we sat and stared and he could see us so it was awkward, we decided after 10 mins it wasn't him!! :)
