Lake House Reunion

May 15-17th, our med-school accoutability group met up after 5 years apart. David Finklea had this great idea to get together before everyone got spread all over the country...literally. We rented a lake house on Cedar Creek and had a great time catching up...definitely going to be a tradition every couple of years. We haven't seen the Putmans in 5 years, but it was just like old times hanging out. Here are Chad and Jessica with their three kids: twins Taryn and Andrew and baby Seth. Chad and Jessica are moving to Tulsa for Chad to start work with an ENT group.
Newlyweds Bleu and Lacie: aka "Ken and Barbie" are moving to NY City for Bleu to do a Cardiothoracic surgery fellowship at Cornell.
Bachelor Abe is going to Boston to do an ER radiology fellowship.
David and Michelle Finklea. David is going to Atlanta to do a Pulmonary Critical Care fellowship at Emory.
Chad is moving his family to LA to start an Ortho Sports Medicine fellowship.

And of course Meg and I will be moving to NC for Meg to start her Pediatric Ophthalmology fellowship with Duke in one month!!
The Hot tub was a great hang-out:
Katelin trying out the new goggles in the hot tub.
Rub-a-dub-dub...three men in a tub: Bleu, David, and Abe
Thanks to Chad for bringing the boat.
The kids had a great time hanging out together...all 7 of them!

Maddox with a new style of shades!

The house had a great sand area that the kids had a blast in. (Abe and Chad had some fun building sandcastles too!)
Katelin, Tye, Taryn, and Andrew found a new way to play pool.
Katelin could not keep her ahnds off of the babies...here she is with Grayson Conner.
Rub-a-dub-dub...5 kids in a tub!!
Food!!! Catherine and Chad brought all of the food. Thanks a ton for the great meals!
We decided to have a mini-reception at the lake house for the newlyweds. Congrats Bleu and Lacie!! Sunday morning Chad and Abe put together a worship session and lesson. Church at its best.

What a great idea- looks like you had a blast! Saw some familiar faces. Makes me miss our time in G town! The friendships were the best part..

Welcome to our new blog! We thought this would be a fun way to share our pictures and lives with family and friends. Thanks for visiting. Enjoy!
Katelin celebrated her first birthday at her grandparents' house in Round Rock. We grilled hamburgers and had cake and homemade ice cream.

Katelin's one! (April 2007)
We went to the Grand Canyon for our vacation this year. We stayed in Sedona, Arizona. The mule ride was great fun! We suggest everyone seeing the Grand Canyon at least once in a lifetime.
