We got our first real snowfall today! It was magical. The snowflakes were huge.

We had to get a family picture in our front yard 🙂

 

I will miss your bright leaves piled everywhere!

Here is Casey’s class all sporting their new white coats!

Our wild and crazy Saturday night consisted of laundry, listening to Taylor Swift’s new album, and eating taquitos…what did you do? 🙂

 I was asked by a local Veterinary Hospital if I would like to donate my pet sitting services to their silent auction coming up. The event would benefit the Banfield Charitable Trust, so I happily agreed to  contribute to the cause.

The Banfield Charitable Trust works to keep pets and their people together in a variety of ways:

-Emergency and Preventative Veterinary Care Programs
-Pet Peace of Mind-allowing hospice patients to keep their pets at home
-Pet Food Program-working with Meals on Wheels to ensure pets have adequate nutrition
-Pet Advocacy Grants-helping to fund local community pet projects

This is what my station looked like, with my fliers all set up. I can’t wait to find out who won my prizes! 🙂

I had just finished deep cleaning our microwave, steam cleaning it with lemon water and wiping it all out. Then Casey decides it is time for lunch and needs to reheat his bbq ribs. He had the most guilty look on his face when this happened:

This weekend was Casey’s White Coat Ceremony, where he and his classmates were presented with their first white coats. This marks the transition from the study of preclinical to clinical health sciences. A moment he has worked very hard to be able to achieve.There were many laughs from all, and a wonderful speech given. The students had to read a Hippocratic Oath before they received their coats.They then signed the oath book and were given their coats by the Dean.All smiles, he looks very official now!What a STUD.Ang and Steven came to support Casey and share in the celebration.We are so proud of you Casey! M.D. here he comes!
