Halloween 2015

Since Nathin works almost every holiday in the ER, Julie does her best to bring the holidays to HIM. We joined the fun by making "mummy dogs" and mac & cheese... with a few granny smith apples on the side.

We are pretty sure that no other employee gets more visitors than Nathin.

This month in pictures

Hellllooooo new bike!  Ben and the boys bought me a new bike for my birthday.  We still need to figure out how to attach the baby seat as I'm sure the baby sling isn't the safest option.  Grace had fun though.

look who is pulling up to stand ALL the time!

Had to explain to the boys that people don't normally meet their doctor in the hospital parking lot.
