In my last post I mentioned we went to Dallas for about 4 days had the best time. My doubles partner from OBU was getting married in Waco and my best friend, Elizabeth lives in Dallas, so we went to visit them while we were in town for the wedding. We had so much fun and it is aways so hard to leave. We just love Elizabeth and Kevin and wonder why we live so far apart ha!
Although Mitch left the house before the sun came up every morning and didn't come back until around dinner, we had a good time. I missed seeing him but I knew he had to study and I got to spend some good quality time with Elizabeth. We ate a lot, shopped, ran, just about anything we use to do together.
Elizabeth and Kevin did take us out to Cheesecake Factory for our anniversary. Can you believe its been 5 years?!? She had heard me talking and talking about how I miss it, so that was a fun time! They also took us to several other places in downtown Dallas, one called Off-Site Kitchen and it was incredible. If you're in Dallas go to this place. They are known for their burgers and fries, but they also have INCREDIBLE tacos!!

The wedding was Sunday evening, so Mitch only studied that morning and then we went to Waco for the day. It was so neat to walk round Baylor, its a gorgeous campus and we had fun just driving around checking out the town. And yes we went to Magnolia Market- made my day!!!
The wedding was that evening at a small country church and then the reception was at the Palladium. It was decorated beautifully and couldn't have gone better. It was so nice to see old college friends and celebrate this girl!

We got back to TN Monday night and hit the ground running with a crazy busy week, for the both of us. We just traveled from TN to AR, AR to Dallas, from Dallas to Waco and back and then from Dallas to TN, all in 4 days. TOO MUCH! On top of everything we had going that week to say we were exhausted was an understatement! We made it through the week and then drove from Jackson to Memphis and back Thursday, Friday AND Saturday (Mitch's family was in town all weekend). On our drive back Saturday, I have never seen Mitch so tired. In between trying to see family as much as we could he was studying and staying up late and getting up early and I think he just over did it. We probably should've only went to memphis once, but now we know. With his summer schedule we just can't do it all. So as weird as it sounds, we are looking forward to the month of July being low key and dedicated to school. He has on average 2-3 tests a week so for the reminder of the summer we will be staying at home and enjoying time to ourselves. We would've loved to make another trip at the end of July to go home, or have friends come here, but thats not going to happen. Its hard to say no, but right now in our life it is crucial for our sanity ha!It is nice to know its just a month and a half more of this craziness and we can go back to normal life.... well as normal as this program allows.

| As crazy as this week/weekend was, and how exhausted we were with running on little to no sleep- we had a great 4th with family! |
In august he starts orientation for all the hospitals he will be at so that month with be busy too and then he hits the ground running in September as he begins his clinical rotations! We did get some news regarding his schedule for the next two years, and I will share in my next post. We want to take some time, just Mitch and I, and figure everything out. As crazy as this program is and especially with the rotations, I am so lucky to have Mitch by my side. So when we figure out our plan, we will share all that with friends and family when we are ready! :)
Hope y'all have a great week and try and stay cool!!
