An amendment to my statement...

Our friend Andrea pointed out that I totally left her out of the story about helping with boards, and she definately deserves honorable mention.  Our friend Andrea from Salt Lake came out to be a board patient for Corbin (her bro in law) and Craig.  She got worked on for 2 days straight, and probably never wants to hear the word "dentist" again.  She was a real trooper thought and Craig and Corbin both owe her something big for her being a victim, oh I mean patient. Ha ha.  Props to you Andrea for being braver than most.  I don't think Ashley is willing to be a board patient for me, and I am her husband!

Thus ends another semester.

Well I have another semester of dental school under my belt.  I just have about 6-7 weeks to go until the year is complete.  We have Physiology and Crown and Bridge for the first half of the summer session.  Then I will have all of July and August free!!  I am looking forward to the free time, but the classes I have between now and then shouldn't be too bad.  I will have a little more free time for now. 

Aside from that things here are going well.  The weather is getting nice again, they say 85 by sunday and 87 by monday or tuesday.  I am looking forward to that for sure. 

Ashley is keeping busy with tennis stuff, and getting some more hours in, so that helps with the $$$ in the bank.

This last weekend I helped my friend Craig with his WREB board exam.  It is a clinical exam where he treats patients and then the examiners grade how well he did.  It was good for me cause those are the boards I will have to take to be a dentist, so I now have an idea of what all is involved with the process.  It was good for him cause he had an extra set of hands to suck spit and all that fun stuff.  I had a good time doing it though, even it is did make for a couple of long days at school.

Well that is what has been going on here.   I will try and get some more lab pictures up next week, and long as I don't forget to take my camera to school with me again.
