So things have been crazy at the Ebers house. Eric started teacher work days on Friday and the kids officially come tomorrow! Crazy how fast the summer really did fly. We didn't get everything done but we definitely enjoyed every minute of it.

A few fun facts that we have experienced over the past few weeks. First of all, I was not happy with my computer at all. I got something on it and had to take it to school for them to scan and go through everything. It just annoyed me because I had a presentation due this past Monday and this weekend is when it really started giving me trouble so to be safe, I had to use Eric's computer and we did not use the internet. I hate technology. On a fun note, the Ebers's have a new truck!! We are pumped. It kinda came outta the blue even though Eric has been talking about it for a while. He started looking online last week and then went to the place here in Starkville before we called down to Jackson. We ended up driving down on Saturday to test drive (and buy!!) a truck and then got up EARLY!!!( 5 am. thanks mommy!!!) so that I could get back to be "on call" at 8 am. Eric didn't mind considering he got to drive his new truck back. We traded in the blazer which barely made it. It definitely was time for a new car. I hadn't ridden in it since last week, but it definitely was on it's death bed.

Avery is doing great in her training. She loves the water and I think is getting bored and needs new challenges. Cute thing that she is decided that in the 10 hours she was in her house today (I know, but school has started) she was going to eat her duck. She pulled out the tubing that makes the quack. I'm hoping that it comes out in a day or two and I don't have to take her up to school. It doesn't seem to phase her even though she got a little sick this afternoon. She is a Lab!!


She is growing but not as fast as she used to. We are thinking her head is about to grow next considering it looks little in proportion to the rest of her body.

I have a week and a half left on Anesthesia which is kinda scary... I feel confident in my abilities but I'm not sure I'm quite ready for them to give me complete control next week. I know I'll be fine but I can't believe how fast these three weeks have gone by.
