Ron came into town last Thursday evening, and we had some friends over on Friday for the 4th. The old apartment is just outside of city limits, so Ron and our friend Bryan had a good time with tons of fireworks that evening. Unfortunately I had already packed the camera, so no pictures, you'll just have to trust me!
Saturday was the big moving day, I got up early to go milk a cow (we had a dairy cow in the hospital all weekend, so I had to go in and milk her 1-2 times a day), but got home just in time to start! All in all it was pretty smooth, we finished everything in less than 3 hours!! Of course there was still a lot of small things that needed to be moved, but all of the furniture was in, and it fit. (we have 4 couches between the 3 of us, and Ashlee and I have 2 full size beds in one room!)
Here's the new house:
And just to give you perspective, The vet school is JUST on the other side of this building.
This picture is taken from the front porch of our house. I'm super excited about not having to buy a parking pass for school next year, plus I'll be saving lots on gas!
Meet Daisy:
She is my new Rommate (Kerrie)'s cat. She's a wonderful pet, and has really held her own against the two dogs. Sam and Ryno still haven't quite figured out what to do with her yet. It's quite funny.
On Monday, Ron and I had our first anniversary (Yay!). Thanks everyone for the emails, calls, and cards!! The day started out with me having to go to school, which sucked, but I got out around 3, so not too bad. Ron and I packed up an overnight bag, and checked into our hotel room! Of course, I thought we were checking in, but Ron had already done that, and this is what was waiting for me when I walked in:
We had a wonderful dinner at CC's Broiler (a nice steakhouse in Columbia), and were thoroughly stuffed at the end of the night.
We did eat our anniversary cake, it was surprisingly still very good!
Here's what it looked like when we unwrapped it:

Not pretty, but still good!
The hotel room was nice, but of course I wasn't able to sleep in and fully enjoy it because I had to be at school at 8am the next morning! I did however still manage to take advantage of the awesome continental breakfast before heading out the door. Of course Ron took me to school and proceeded straight back to the hotel room to go back to sleep. No fair!
Ron took the entire week off work, so it was nice to have him here. We relaxed, and unpacked (and when I say we, I mean I unpacked while Ron played Wii). Nothing else too exciting. The weather has been gorgeous the last couple of days, we've actually had the air off and the windows open!
I have 2 more days left of Food Animal Medicine, and I start Oncology on Wednesday. One more down! 3 rotations to go!!! (Holy crap, that means boards is that much closer too!)
