Take Me Out To The Ball Game!

So last night I experienced something that I have never experienced before. A professional sporting event. How sad is that? Pretty sad, I know. I'm twenty five and deprived! Well...not really.

We had a GREAT TIME! The game was actually pretty entertaining. Indians VS Twins: Final score: 3-2. Wahoo! We went out with two other couples we have met out here. Following the game and the UH-MAZING fireworks show what did a bunch of adults in their mid-twenties do? A midnight taco bell run of course. The only downside to the whole night was the theme...Elvis night. I have nothing against Elvis but I do not think I am a fan of the tacky Elvis impersonator bringing shame to our Nation Anthem. It was pretty awful but did not ruin the overall experience.




My first "ballpark" hot dog!



Trev and I getting ready to root for the Indians!



Awesome stadium!



Amazing Fireworks to finish of the evening...it was actually pretty cool. They timed the boom and bang of the fireworks to some of Elvis' songs.



In the words of Elvis...Thank you, thank you very much.

White Coat Ceremony

Two weeks ago (wow I'm behind) Trevor participated in his white coat ceremony. Basically the students receive their white coats, strut across the stage and take an oath promising to be really good doctors. Here are a few pictures for your enjoyment. I am one proud wife!






Here is to a long and happy road! :)

The Ohio Chronicles

We have been keeping busy here in Cleveland! Trevor made an unexpected trip to Iowa last Monday to help out a fellow first year podiatry student and his wife. This couple was driving to Cleveland and hauling a trailer (just like us) and the tire blew on the trailer causing the trailer and truck to flip. Fortunately nobody was hurt but their stuff was left stranded for about a week so Trevor volunteered his time to help them out. This put a little hiccup in our plans. We really wanted to visit New York or DC but felt so blessed to have made it out hear safely (which is a miracle considering I drove) so we put our plans aside to help them. Plus while Trevor and JT drove out to get the trailer, Olga and I got a little better acquainted. Turns out she is pretty awesome!

ANYWAY...on Wednesday I woke up and Trevor had a whole day planned for me. We decided to take a little day trip to Kirtland, Ohio. For those of you who do not know why that would be our first choice click here. It was really a beautiful spot and I was even more assured of the truth and happiness the Gospel of Jesus Christ can bring into our lives. Here a few pictures we took...

In order of appearance we have the a photo of the upper room of the Whitney store where the Prophet Joseph Smith taught,Trevor and I in front of the Whitney Store, and a photo of the Kirtland Temple. So cool to be there. There is so much rich history in this area and I am so excited to explore it!





Following our adventure in Kirtland we were STARVING. We both agreed to eat at MELT . Two words. UH-MAZING. For you food network fans, yes this is the same restaurant famous for their grilled cheese goodness. This is on the list of my all time favorites. It is even worth the trip to Ohio. So you all should probably stop by sometime. :)
