Only 3 Months 'Til Graduation!

Russell has been in the Paramedic Program for the last two semesters. He only has the summer semester to go and he is excited he has made it this far. He can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Thursday his class took group pictures for the graduation announcements. Here are a few pictures:
Yeah they are a pretty crazy bunch!
Russell recently passed his Red Level Paramedic test which tests your knowledge of Emergency medical procedures, drugs, and other things he has learned as a paramedic. He was really nervous about this test because if he did not pass it, he would not be allowed to continue the program and fail the class. He studied so hard and his hard work paid off and he was able to pass this big test. He was so happy and to celebrate, we went on a DATE! (Dates have been pretty slim because he has been so busy with class, clinicals, and ambulance ride-alongs.) Good job Russell!
Here is the soon to be Paramedic!

More class photos...I don't think they got a picture with everyone taking it seriously!

We also took a few fun pictures of us. Here Russell is teaching Emily how to drive a fire truck.

I liked this one of Emily.

Emily started getting bored at watching Russell's pictures; she wanted to play in the water.

Now that is one happy family. We are so excited for this last semester. Even though Russell has a lot the clinicals to do and will be gone a lot, we know it will go by fast. Keep up the good work, Russell, you are the best husband and dad ever!!! We love you!

Way to go, Russell! I am sure you all are just so happy that he is done with those nasty tests. That is just awesome!
