MATCH DAY!

Match Day - March 16, 2012.
The day when medical students all across the country found out where they would be doing their residency and what type of medicine they would be practicing.  This is probably the most exciting and anticipated day for medical students.  We found out early (because of Mike's military scholarship) where we would be heading, but we kept is a surprise from family members.  Would we be going to Seattle, WA?  Austin, TX? or Augusta, GA?  .....  


Mike's mom made the cure signs for the boys.  "Where in the world is Daddy going?"

AUGUSTA, GEORGIA!  Mike got his #1 choice and will be practicing EMERGENCY MEDICINE at the Medical College of Georgia - Georgia Health Sciences University Hospital.  I am so proud of him.  This was a VERY competitive program and they only took a 3 residents with Mike's military scholarship.  Way to go Mike!  We are happy to be staying so close to family and friends.
