Twins, 10K's and the Fair

I feel like the time has quickly passed me by since last blogging. A lot has happened since last time. I first off have decided to run my first 10K (6.5 miles) on Oct. 18th (the day after I turn 29!!!!). Needless to say, Duke and I are in TERRIFIC shape now. JK, but in all honesty, it has motivated me to loose some weight. Now on to the MN Twins. As most of you know, my husband is one of the biggest sports fanatics to ever live. We have enjoyed watching the Twins battle their way in the AL playoffs.

Not only has the MN State Fair passed thru town with our annual attendance, but we also visited the local amusement park, Valley Fair. We greatly enjoyed acting like kids again waiting in lines with the finest citizens MN has to offer. The rides exceeded our expectations and the fair food did not leave us disappointed.
As far as school goes, I have started my 3rd of 6 rotations. This time at the County Hospital in downtown Minneapolis. It should be interesting to say the least. I like to compare it to ER. Half the patients don't speak English, and you never know what kinda of trauma the EMS will bring in to grace our presence in the OR. I'm sure I'll have good stories to take away with me. Here's a couple of pics of my friends from school at a conference we attended for school. Enjoy the rest of summer and come visit us soon!!!
