Welcome to Our Blog!

Well, Derek and I are finally jumping on the blog bandwagon! After keeping up with friends through their blogs (and I'll be honest here..stalking many other blogs!), we figured it was time to start one of our own! When Derek first moved up to Virginia 3.5 years ago, he started a weekly email to keep in touch with everyone back home. So, we're finally retiring the ole Weekly Report and starting our very own blog!

Please excuse the Christmasy theme on our blog..we're getting in the spirit early this year! Our house is already decorated! :) I have NEVER decorated for Christmas before Thanksgiving, but since we're not celebrating Thanksgiving at our house this year..we figured, why not?! That justifies it, right? ;) I must say though, after coming home from an afternoon of errands, it was quite nice to turn on the Christmas lights on our little tree!





We hope our blog will help our friends and family living 600 miles away from us have a glimpse into our day-to-day lives here in Virginia. Derek is currently finishing up his rotation in the ER, which has proved to be a nice schedule for him! He was even able to go hunting twice this week! He has two more shifts in the ER this week, and then he'll be half-way done with rotations for his 4th year of medical school! It's still hard to believe that he'll be graduating in less than 6 months now! Where does the time go?!

Thanks for stopping by, and WELCOME TO OUR BLOG! To our faithful readers of the Weekly Report, make sure you add yourself as a "follower." We hope everyone has a happy Thanksgiving! Come back soon! :)
