Nathan's Rotation Rollercoaster

Most of you know that Nathan was leaving in July for rotations for school, and then coming back in November when we will then move to Flagstaff until he graduates. Well, he received a phone call Thursday that left him a little stressed and upset. Apparently the program he was super excited to attend in Tuba City (just outside Flagstaff) is dropping it's student program. So this left Nathan with nowhere to go the month of July as well as November through April. After working on his case for a little while, the school informed him that the program he got accepted to at Yale would still take him, or he could go to the Phoenix VA. Neither of those options sounded good to us since Yale is all the way on the east coast and I'm due the month we would need to leave, and he's been at the Phoenix VA a few months all ready, so he wanted to go somewhere new. Nathan went ahead and asked them if there was anyway he could get in somewhere on the west coast (San Diego, LA, SF, Portland or Seattle). Turns out UCLA had an opening, and we won't have to go until December. We just need to wait for the director to look over his transcripts and accept him. I'm not too worried though, seeing that Nathan is ranked third in his class (sorry, I'm bragging). So now Nathan is just going to a local doctor office for the month of July, Salt Lake in August, Denver in Sept, Virginia in October, and hopefully somewhere local in November before we move to LA December to May. I am so excited about this new schedule for two reasons: A) he's now going to be here for July, and B) we will live in California for at least 5 months! It's going to be expensive, but so much fun! We can go to the beach and Disneyland all we want! I think I'm a little more excited than Nathan :)
