White Coat Ceremony

We recently attended Barton's White Coat Ceremony. It was cool until I remembered that we still have four years of dental school :) So here is a sneak peak of what is to come in four years...




Some of our new friends. The Mormon Mafia!

It was fun to have family there. The best part was how excited Jonas got. He kept screaming: Yah Barton!

Come One, Come All!

Best week ever! My beautiful little sister came and stayed the week. It was awesome! We played, and played, and played! The week went by way too fast. Here are pictures of some of our adventures....

Picking Rebecca up from the airport. (I bet you can guess who thought of this great sign:)

Look at how sweet my momma is! She snuck this into Rebecca's carry on just for me. A little piece of home!

We are so lucky to have cousins close! My cousin Suseann, her hubby, and kids live in Cincinnati. We spent Sunday evening with them. It was a blast. It was so much fun that we met up again on Tuesday...

Great museum and great company!

One of the many times we got lost in Cincinatti but ended up finding something cool. We kept wondering who dared let us loose on the city by ourselves.

What better way is there to explore Cincinatti then on a "Ride the Ducks" tour? It was fabulous! This water/land craft was designed in WWII to transport things between the land and the ships. Now they use them for awesome tours. And yes, we did go in the water.

Sounding like ducks is a must on one of the tour! And who doesn't want to make a fool of themselves while driving through downtown Cincinatti?!?

Us on the cool Purple People Bridge.

What is Kentucky without the chicken?

Long story short....There is this cool castle on your way to Lexington. Well, I always wondered what it was for. Was it a private residence, was it a mafia house, was a it a museum, etc. What better way to find out then drive up to it, find an unlocked door, and invite yourself in! We didn't feel as mischievous when we finally found out that it was just a bed and breakfast.

My handsome husband gave us a great tour of campus. This is one of the torture facilities.

100, 000 water balloons+over 3, 000 people= A world record
We participated in this huge water fight. The whole purpose of it was to set the world record, and boy howdy did we do it. It was crazy! It actually only lasted a few minutes. We were on the front line, across from the other team. There was so much water that we couldn't even see. We were soaked!
Kentucky is all about horses. This is us at the race tracks.

This is us in front of the Louisville Temple. Very pretty.

This was Barton's highlight....The Louisville Slugger Field. Who knew that Louisville was famous for their bats? Barton was ashamed of us.
