while the waiting game continues & the rain POURS down in dallas, there have been several brights spots over the past few days...
1. i got this page from russell last night during my very last (ever, ever) medical school shift. at 11:01 pm, this is what made me smile, "snotty kid sneezing in your face...$10.00; anybody & everybody telling you what to do for the last time...FREE; 2:59 minutes of school left in your entire life...PRICELESS. OH YEAH that's right, 179 minutes left...love you. have a good night."
2. the attaways--a family that i ADORE. i stayed with aunt mary last week while russ was out-of-town. she's my mom's best friend from childhood, and she's such a witty miss america. a guaranteed laugh--a guaranteed hug--and a guaranteed reminder of how much i cherish friends-who-are-family. i got to hang out with the attway girls--erin & mary claire--a bit, too; they are euqally hysterical.

3. russ & his triathlon craze. he did the st. patty's day tri over the weekend; it's a "sprint" tri with a 300 meter swim, 12 mile bike & 5k run (in that order). he did great & finished in just over 1 hr 4 min. sometimes i get winded just watching & trying to move between the events to take pictures.
russ' triathlon buddies--including lauren & drew skaggs! (on the ends)
4. the girls. they're vacationing in scenic west texas with they're grandparents right now while they're parents are homeless. we decided to avoid the pps investigation (puppy protective services) by making them nomads, too. this is a scene from abilene, but i can guarantee that molly just bit grace's ear & stole the stick...because she's just mean like that.

That page IS smile provoking! That Russell is such a sweetheart! I can't believe you are almost done! Also, I am having a hard time picturing Miss Molly biting ears or stealing sticks. She is too cute for that.
