Two weeks ago we finished Garrett's last interview and last week we submitted our rank list for his Dermatology Residency. We will find out on March 18th where we will be going. He will complete one year as a intern and then three years as a dermatology resident and maybe a fellowship in Moh's Surgery, that's the plan anyway.
When Garrett arrived home we surprised him with 26 balloons, all marked with the schools and programs he interviews at. Each balloon also symbolized a day-plus we missed him. He was gone a lot these last few months. Gabe insisted on flowers as well. We had so much fun doing it, lets just say it was an interesting /fun ride home. We are glad we are almost done with this portion of his training, although we will miss these years of being so close to family and friends.
Gabe started primary at church this year and absolutely LOVES it! For those family and friends who are not of our faith, at 3 years old children start Primary, which is a Sunday school for children. They sing/learn songs about Jesus Christ, do activities, and learn from the scriptures (both new and old testament as well as the Book of Mormon). It is for 2 hours during our 3 hour block of meetings every Sunday. We have been out of town a lot or sick since the beginning of the year and he has been so sad to miss it. This last Sunday was stake conference and he was so mad that they didn't have primary. He loves his teachers and loves being with his friends learning about Jesus! He loves having his own scriptures and case for them. He carried them around with him for a week after we got them. He loves to read the Book of Mormon with me and say prayers. He is such a good example to me! I LOVE YOU Gabe!
