November 2008

Jared is busy with working and traveling for fellowship interviews. His Mayo Clinic interview went well and he will hear from them within a few weeks. He has two different Harvard interviews this month (I get to join him in Boston for one of them – YIPEE!). Jared is also completing a few more applications for the UofA fellowship and Johns Hopkins (in honor of Mike and Carley’s favorite doctor). There is also a program here in San Antonio that just might be the best fit for him, but that is still in the works.



I am officially a Certified Personal Trainer and am working a few hours every morning at the Jewish Community Center as a trainer. I genuinely am having a ball meeting new people, getting new clients, designing workouts, doing fitness assessments, and basically kicking people’s rear ends. I have been smiling for a month now – I’m having that much fun!



Tressa is losing teeth like its going out of style (the Tooth Fairy is having a hard time keeping up!). She has a slight break from her gymnastic competitions for a few more weeks. She did end her swimming season last week with a meet and I was so impressed with that girl’s strokes!



Brian is still racking in the goals at his soccer games, and has learned to keep his elbows to himself (instead of in the other kids’ faces). He loves school and even more his bike!



Johnny Scott is 20 months and just starting to talk more which leads to making us laugh even more. He keep me running all day – but he can win my heart in an instant! His new dancing moves have been a huge hit!



Every morning the kids and I pack everything up and ride our bikes 3 miles to and from school. We’ve been keeping track and yesterday we hit the 100 mile mark! We celebrated by dancing in the school parking lot, setting of poppers with streamers, and Jared took us all our and bought us desperately needed new bike helmets! It was so rewarding to see the kids so excited to reach our goal as a family.
