Doctors, Dentists and other Tid Bits

One more week and I have to go see the Doctor. I'm really not very excited about this! Will came home yesterday with two bandages on his arm- one for drawing blood and the other for some shot! It is a huge relief though that we don't have to pay for any of it- THANK GOODNESS! I spoke with Moscow Family Medicine and they were more than happy to cover the bill. Then I called Palouse View Dental Office and they were also willing to work with us. It's a relief that we won't have to pay for this all out of pocket. We hope to have the medical packet complete within the next couple weeks so we can receive our actual assignment and departure date. Once that is finalized the reality of our situation will hit and the scrambling will begin.
On another note life has been crazy busy but exciting all at hte same time. Will and I were both nominated for Outstanding Senior in the Ag Ed department. I went ahead and applied for it so we'll see how that turns out. The awards banquet isn't until April so it could be a little bit of a wait.
We also tried cross country skiing for the first time- Lets just say 6-7 miles isn't what we were expecting but we had a blast. The snow conditions weren't that great making it much harder. I found myself speeding down a mountain unable to stop and crashing into the only tree in sight (go figure) Our friends Brandon and Lindsey took us! Needless to say it was a great workout and that Western Burger in Elk River tasted pretty darn good :)

Below are some fun pictures from the day:


Happy Skiing

Will's got Skills!

And I fall down- The story of my Life

Congratulations You're in the Nomination Process!

As some of you know when you apply for the Peace Corps you are able to check the status of your application online- For several months I checked and received the same notification over and over again, "We have received your application and we're currently reviewing it." Argh Therefore when I finally checked today and it said- "Congratulations you are now a nominee for the Peace Corps" I was ecstatic!

Now there is a list of things we have to do in order to actually receive our assignment. The list includes medical and dental visits, lots of fun legal information, and reimbursement forms. Once all of this is completed, sent back, and we're cleared then we'll receive our actual assignment- The exact country and date we'll be leaving! So here in the next couple weeks you can find Will and I at the dentist, doctor, and the good ol eye doctor!

School is as busy as ever- Will is getting ready to go out to Troy and student teach- I have to admit he looks pretty handsome having to wear a shirt and tie everyday! I'm still working 35-40 hours a week and going to school full time. Thank goodness for yoga, Will, and great friends or I would go absolutely nuts! Preparing for Graduation is exciting along with starting another chapter in our lives- Peace Corps Here we come!

Love To All!
