Duluth Bound

In just three short weeks, we'll be moving to Duluth. We can't even believe it. The journey of anesthesia school has been incredible, in that it has tested our faith and relationship with the Lord, our marriage relationship, and our ability to perservere. We have humbly appreciated this journey, however, are glad its coming to an end. We could not have perservered without the Lord being with us every step of the way. I know this because at times, I attempted to do everything on my own and then realized the verse, " I can do all things through Christ (not Todd) who strengthens me." Thanks for all your support along the way including prayer and encouragement.
We close on our new home Nov 1st and then move on November 7th. As mentioned previously, graduation is on December 1st. One thing left after graduation.......pass the certification exam in order to start working. I plan to take the exam on Dec 21st and then my official start date at St. Mary's will be January 21st. That will give us some time to get settled into our new home, do a little ice fishing, and become familiar with Duluth.
I hope you are all having a wonderful day. May God be a huge part of your day today and everyday. I look forward to seeing you all very soon.

Todd's Graduation

Hey everyone-
Well, last Sunday I participated in one of two graduation ceremonies I will have before I am officially done with anesthesia school. It was a nice ceremony and best of all was short and sweet. My official end date in December 1st. Check out a few of the pics.
That same day Emily participated in the Twin Cities Ten Mile Race in which she did a fantastic job by not only finishing but surviving 80 degree weather with at least a 70% dewpoint. I've never seen someone sweat that much in my life.
On Nov 1st we begin our journey of our new life in Duluth when we close on our new home on Island Lake. We are so excited and feel very blessed to be able to live on such a beautiful lake.
God bless ya'll and hope to talk to you soon.
