An Update

It's been a little while since I've posted!  We just got back from our trip to California and I will be posting a lot in the next few days as I sort through my pictures.  But I thought in the meantime I'd give y'all a little update.  We found out a few weeks ago Josh passed his Step 1 (woohoo!!) and have been waiting for the details of his clinical schedule.  After a bit of an emotional roller coaster we are happy to announce that we are staying in Saginaw for the next year!!!  (Yes you did read that happy part right ha ha).  Saginaw definitely has its downsides, but doesn't every place?  We like it here, we have a great ward, we've heard great things from the students who've done rotations here, there is a constant flow of new/old friends every few months, and the cost of living is very reasonable to mention a few of its upsides. We feel really lucky to have Josh's complete schedule for the next year and that he can get right through his core rotations with just a 3 week gap in there. And we found a cute little house for the same price we're paying for our apartment now that we'll move into next month, and we are really excited about it.  Today we asked  Shane if he liked Michigan and he pointed out the window excitedly and said "You like Michigan!! It's home!"  Guess that settles it then :)
