First test down

So William completed his first test of med school! He thinks he did well but I guess he'll officially find out his score sometime this week. It was a terribly long week of studying for him and I felt like we barely had time together because of our busy schedules! He was VERY excited to not have to study this weekend so he was able to sleep in and do some fun things. I had to work saturday so once I got home we were able to go to mellow mushroom and we went to see Eat Pray Love. William was definitely not happy about it but it was my turn to pick the movie so he had to go along with it. I thought it was pretty good but let's just say I have never seen William run out of a movie that fast! It was kind of long but he stuck with me and he was relieved when it was over...haha!

We planned on finding a new church this morning but we were both SO exhausted and forgot to set the alarm so that will be our task for next week. We woke up and had a lazy breakfast/lunch then we headed out to Salem Lake to see what it was like. When we were looking at moving here one of our friends showed us some highlights of Winston and Salem lake was one of them. It's a public lake/park where you can boat, fish, walk/bike the trails, etc. We walked out on the pier for a while and then we walked one of the trails. It was a beautiful walk that we will definitely be doing again. It felt like we were in the mountains with all the trees, creeks, rocks etc. At one point there was a large dam that was just really cool to look at:



We probably walked close to 5 miles and we were so tired when we left that we stopped and ate at Panera and then came straight home and jumped in the pool! We had the pool all to ourselves and it was just a generally relaxing afternoon.

I need to try to post more than just sunday nights but it seems like our time is so limited! William is mad tonight because forsyth county schools start tomorrow and the M2's return to the med school so he has to leave earlier in the morning to beat all the traffic and get a parking spot! On a happier note, we have officially started wedding planning and I'm so excited. Once we get a few important details worked out then we will send save-the-dates and we're definitely excited to be getting married sooner rather than later. If everything goes as planned then we will be married in 6 months!!!! YAY!
