Well, we’re moving in a little over two weeks—packing up our little family, saying goodbye to our beloved Missoula, and movin’ to Oregon. We’re sad to be leaving but excited just the same. Doug is making a career change that will launch us on new adventure for several years to come. He’s starting medical school officially this Fall in Oregon but will be taking an intensive anatomy course this summer in California. We won’t be going with him so the kids and I will live with my parents for the summer. I think it will be a fun time for the kids and me. We’ll see if my parents and Annie say the same when the summer is over, the Tanners can be a rowdy bunch.
The prospect of starting another round of graduate school is a bit daunting but the great thing is,
DOUG IS EXCITED. The other night I came home to find him reading his anatomy book for the fun of it. It’s encouraging for me to see him enthusiastic. Medical school will be a challenge for both of us, and the kids too. Not very many people start med school with four children in tow. We feel good about it though. We’re more ready than ever before, and we have the comfort that we are in the right place at the right time.
Wish us luck...we'll need it.

I am so excited for your arrival. Can't wait to witness the start of your next adventure!
good luck!!!
I think of you often:-) and you going to Oregon sounds great! I loved our roadtrip to Oregon... say hi to your folks for me:-)
and again, good luck. I hope you have all you need and more for this adventure.
How fun to have you back in the area!! Good luck this summer!
That is so exciting! My husband is just starting his 4th year of Podiatry school, and then comes a 3-4 year surgical residency. It's a trip, for sure. We only have two children, but our other friends in his class have 3, 3, and 2 (+twins on the way), so while you may be a little more "established" than most, you will find a circle of friends who can relate. And there's always the neighborhood! :)
