Now let the game begin (for the rest of you) of figuring out where we matched.
Again here are the choices: Rochester, MN; Washington DC (Bethesda - NIH); Louisville, KY; Baltimore, MD; Pittsburgh, PA.
Let's back track a little here and recap our journey so far. After graduating from LC State we went to Des Moines University for medical school. As you all know Des Moines is the capital of Iowa.
We really loved Iowa and always stated that we would move back to the Midwest in a heartbeat if given the chance. Is Minnesota close enough? The kids would love having 4 distinct seasons again.
For residency we were able to move to Olympia, Washington. Again a state capital. Is there a theme? Any state capitals in the list???
Keep scrolling!!!
We are headed to Washington DC for the next three years. I matched at the National Institute of Health program in Bethesda, MD!!! The move will be an exciting one and there should be no shortage of opportunities of things to do and see. No more being home bodies!!!
I'm sure Aimee's photography skills (and the camera - poor battery) will definitely get a work out. We may have to get 2 or 3 more external hard drives for all the pics.
The two older ones are more than excited to move (and as of right now - 0930) they don't even know yet. They asked Aimee this morning at breakfast where we were going. They didn't know the list wasn't released until 9AM they just knew today was the day. They must have had an insight because they each told me Monday night we were moving to DC. Hmmmm.
We'll that's the news from here. We are definitely excited and can't wait for this new adventure and challenge. Now all I have to do is graduate from residency!!!
