Can you handle the heat?



Today we found out that we will be moving to Phoenix, AZ next year for Kris to do his Orthopedic Spine Surgery Fellowship. We will only be there for one year, but we are very excited for this new adventure. We are so sad to leave our happy life here in NY, but we are also ready to finish this long medical training process.

This past winter it snowed over 179 inches, which by the way, won us the New York State Golden Snowball Award--yes, I am serious there is such a thing. So, when people have been asking me if I think I can handle the heat in Arizona I have just one thing to say...

Bring. It. On!

179???? That. Is. Crazy. Maybe I'd trade that for Phoenix, but only maybe. I spent a weekend in Yuma where my mom grew up and the 115+ degrees just about killed me. It was like living in an oven. NO THANK YOU. The NW is delightfully in between. :)

But how exciting for you guys! That will be a big change!

YAY!!!! Closer to "home"!! Wish Kris could have been here Monday; Zack had back surgery for a ruptured L4-5 disk!!! He's doing great but has to find a new line of work. Tough business for my ADHD 25-year old son...

Happy for you guys!
