Wahoooo, A New Car!!!!!

Here it is, our new car. We decided to get a new car before one of ours kicked the bucket. We got a 2005 Toyota Corolla. It is silver as you can see and is in great shape. It gets great gas mileage compared to our other cars and it is much zippier than the Jeep or Pathfinder. Oh and in the background is the Casa Del Sol fine apartment living.

In other news, Dave is still learning about the brain and spinal cord. It has been one of the toughest classes because of the amount of information and the amount of important details with the brain. Dave is also managing to find time for Frisbee on Wednesday nights with other med. school students as well as flag football on Saturday mornings.

I on the other hand am learning lots about physics and developmental psychology. Physics is hard because it is a completely new way of looking at things and problem solving things. It has been very time consuming to study but at least Dave has a study buddy now:) Psychology has been interesting so far. We have mostly just learned about the different learning theories out there. Our first paper is comparing and contrasting different theories of development. Work has been going well. They have been extremely flexible/accommodating with my school and work schedule so I could not ask much more from them. All in all, life has been good here at the Casa Del Sol. We are staying busy but enjoying ourselves as well.

Randoms Pics...

so, dave and i have been very lazy with posting things, but here are a few updates. i have started taking a few classes as pre-recquisites for physical therapy school (although i am not applying until the fall of '09 for the following year b/c then dave will have an idea about his residency). i am taking physics and psychology. i am very busy since work has stayed steady throughout the summer and into fall. dave is busy starting his second year of medical school and learning lots about neuro-anatomy....the BRAIN!!! ahhhhh. we are both busy but still managing some fun and of course ROCKIES! we went camping over labor day weekend and caught some yummy trout for dinner. i posted a picture of dave and the celestial tea factory in boulder. he loved the beard net:)
dave with a creepy 'stach... no he is not on cops or america's most wanted.

so, the DNC was just here and it caused denver transportation hastles as well as a huge influx of cops into the area. we rode our bikes to a rockies game during the dnc and look at all the cops....it is not that great of a pic but you can see the full gear and fbi peeps.
i hope this blog helps to update you all on what we're up to.
