What a weekend!!!

This past weekend was pretty jam-packed for us! I took my Part I dental boards in Des Moines on Saturday, so Aaron and I stayed there Friday and Saturday night. Aaron found us a really good deal through Priceline, so we got to stay at the Marriott near Jordan Creek mall! As it turns out, my parents were going to be in Des Moines that night too, so we had dinner with them and they got a room at the same hotel. We had lots of good dinner conversation, and then lots of good political conversation - Grandpa Trunnell would have been proud. Maybe a little shocked that there was no yelling or slamming of doors! :) Saturday morning Aaron took me to the test center and I got done around noon - pretty good for 400 questions! :) Then we got to spend the rest of the day as sort of a date which was nice - it felt like I hadn't seen him it all in the past two weeks because I had been studying so much! We saw the movie The Bucket List - it was really good and really touching actually! Then we celebrated being done with the boards by going to 801 Steak and Chop House downtown Des Moines (Rachael - I had to go somewhere I could wear my new dress! :) ). The food was really great! And really good dessert! Anyway, Sunday we got to sleep in and then we headed back to Iowa City. We had dinner with Aaron's parents which was nice because we hadn't seen them since we went to Florida with them! All in all it was good weekend and I am so relieved to be done with the boards. I don't get my score for another two or three weeks - right now I'm just hoping I passed so I don't have to study for those again! Hope you are all having a great week!
