Going for the Gold

This post was inspired by the Olympics. I have been watching them every night. Although I can't stay up late enough to catch everything! I love the gymnastics (Is anyone else bothered by their hair scrunchies?) and swimming and can't wait for track to start.

Ty is president of the family medicine club at the med school. His club hosted a dinner last night for all the incoming students and their families. They had food and games. But not just any boring old game: Pseudo Sumo Suits! My sorority rented these once for an event and they are so much fun. I couldn't wait to try them out last night.

Getting velcroed in. Notice how Ty's legs stick out of the suit and mine are completely covered up. He is a full foot taller than me. Also notice how much skinnier his sumo suit looks than mine. I'm telling you if I only was a few inches taller, I would look so much skinnier. Does anyone else have this problem!?!

Check out my belly button!

Wedgie Time!

Help, I've fallen and I can't get up!

"Tyyyyyyyyy. "

I'm sure that is what I was saying. Some of you have heard me use that phrase several times in my whiney, little voice when I am unhappy with whatever the situation may be.

We had such a good time! You also just got a sneak peak at my new hair color. I will post better pictures of it next week.

Today is my one year anniversary at my job where I do recruitment and advisement for OSU's medical school. I have been so blessed to work where Ty's goes to school. I believe that it has really helped us stay more in tune with each other. As a med student he is constantly studying and always under stress. This can put a strain on any marriage, but working at the school has given me a better understanding of what he is going through. Thus, helping our marriage. Besides, this job being great for my marriage I absolutely love it. I am getting to help students achieve their dreams of coming to medical school. I get to plan huge events for the school. (Which is probably my favorite part.) I work with great people and have made great friends. It is a fantastic working environment where everyone truly cares about each other. I am very lucky!

On a sad note, my Papa (my dad's dad) passed away Wednesday night pretty unexpectedly. Please keep my family in your thoughts and prayers.
