So this weekend, Mat had the ENTIRE weekend off. I can seriously count on 1 hand the times he has had an ENTIRE weekend off since I met him 5 1/2 years ago! SERIOUSLY! I am truly loving fellowship! (Welcome to being a doctor's wife. Don't marry a man because of his profession - but because you seriously love him! Being a doctor's wife isn't what its cracked up to be. You don't see your hubby very much and when you do - they are exhausted. A story for another time....)
In the meantime, he has had a great time starting fellowship. He is really enjoying getting to focus on 1 organ, as opposed to the entire body. He really loves learning more about the heart and all of its intricacies. He comes home excited every night about procedures he has just done or new things he has learned. He has boards coming up in 1 month - so he spends a lot of time studying...I am very proud of his discipline. Lord knows, I don't have it!
Back to the weekend. So we were faced with an ENTIRE weekend off to play. We tried to make the most of it. Dinner at Kona on Friday with friends (Thanks Kyle & Jessica - I know you are blog followers - here's a shout out to you - We had a blast!) We enjoyed YUMMY sushi, great Saki and wonderful conversations=) Saturday we slept in, read the paper on the deck (We are green at the Good house. We are also yuppies, so we read it on our iphones), went for a great run and headed out to Crown Center to see the Lego exhibit. (pretty sure these lego kits didn't exist when I was 8!) Very fun. A dork's dream. That night we went to a KC Royals game with our good friends (and Big Sur marathon buddies) Lucas & Beth for our first Royals game of the year and had a chance to visit the new K. Very cool with the updates. If only they would move it downtown. We got there early, did some tailgating and just plain enjoyed the amazing weather.
Sunday was a little more low key with church, followed by pool time for me and study time for Mat. All in all we had a wonderful weekend. We were so blessed for a few days off just to enjoy each others' company. Here are a few pics of our weekend:
