Update

So, I guess I should post an update on here for those who didn't get the annoucement on Facebook......Marcos recently got accepted to medical school at Touro University in Vallejo, CA.  We're moving next Saturday, the 24th to a lovely apartment in Napa....not too far from Marcos' school.  Napa is beautiful and smells like the ocean and is a nicer area than most of Vallejo.  It'll only be like a 30 minute commute for Marcos....not too bad.

We are really excited and so grateful he got into medical school, because we were absolutely dreading the thought of having to apply again if this first time didn't work out.  It is an exhausting, grueling, expensive process!  So we are so grateful for this tremendous blessing and opportunity.  We are sad to leave all our Fresno family and friends, but we're not too far away. 

P.S.  How weird is it that I did a post with no baby pictures?!?!  wow.

'Nuff said. :)

Probably Never Again

These are my grades for Fall semester. How cool is that? Yeah--probably NOT going to happen this semester with everything I've got going on (as it is either Marcos or I or both of us are having to miss classes to make my doctor's appointments!). This is my last semester (YEA!) and I'm not expecting perfection. So this was a nice last hoorah for straight A's.


Who am I kidding....I'm still gonna give it all I've got!

Crash Pics

I found out today that the driver was drunk and still had his foot on the gas even after he crashed. He didn't even break--no skid marks. He's going to jail after he gets out of the hospital. Here are some more insane pics and a nice peak into the loan room and bathroom in our branch.

Wave to the inside...

CRAZY

So...a car crashed through my bank today while we were in the building doing closing procedures. Literally, half inside our branch and half out...smoke, screeching engine, fire alarm, 911 response, the works. Driver's okay....but how WEIRD is that?!?!

The Tradition

Every General Conference Sunday growing up, my Mom always made German Pancakes with lemon and powdered sugar. The tradition lives on! Today we also made homemade fruit smoothies with no added sugar...just bananas, strawberries, blueberries, and apple juice. So yummy!

The Blackout

Today the power went out at my branch. YEA! I got to go home at 4:30 instead of 6:30! We had to balance our cash drawers the caveman way. Pen and paper. Scary how reliant we are on computers! The pics are of our dark lobby and teller stations. Customers kept making jokes that WaMu couldn't even pay their electric bill, which was especially funny due to our company being bought out.
