Having Some Fun

Life has been great for the past few weeks. We have been having a great break from school. School starts in just over a week. I am excited because this fall is my last semester of classes. All I will have left is an internship. Tammy and I are both so excited to be finished here and move on to dental school. We are waiting to hear from schools for interviews. We should start hearing from them soon.

One great thing that happened this week is that I felt the baby move for the first time. Tammy and I were standing in line to get a Redbox movie and I was holding her tummy. Suddenly I felt a small push on my hand. It was so cool. I cannot explain how excited Tammy and I are to become parents. I am really excited to start putting together the baby's room, but I know that we need to wait a little longer before we do that. We will find out at the end of September what we are having. 

So life is great. Our stake just was split, but I am still on the high council and Tammy is still the primary president in the stake. We are staying busy, but loving every minute of it. We hope that you are all doing well too.

An expansion to our school

So now that all of our families know, I can tell everyone else. Tammy and I are going to be parents beginning next year. Tammy is due on February 12, 2009, with our first. We are so excited. We have wanted a child for the last two years, but have not been able to get pregnant. We cannot express how excited we are. If you want a picture of the ultrasound or to watch the entire thing, check out Tammy's blog (on the right).

Other than that, we just got back from the Herring Reunion in AZ. We camped on Mt. Graham for a few days, then spent a few days in Gilbert with the Welch family. Congrats (or our condolences) to Jared for being called as a new bishop in his ward.

We also spent our 3 year anniversary in Las Vegas. We did a tour of the dental school there and then spent the rest of the day celebrating. We had a lot of fun walking the strip.

As far as the search for a dental school goes, we heard from the University of Washington this week, as well as UCSF, and the University of Colorado. We are busy filling out secondary applications and are really praying to know where we should go.

We hope that you are all doing well, and loved seeing all the Herring family. We love you all.
