From The OC to...OC!

It's time to load up the truck and head back out to the Midwest! Ryan got a call yesterday from the director of the Periodontic program in Oklahoma City where he interviewed last week offering him a resident position. It's kind of a long story but without going into all the boring details, we are really excited about this opportunity and new chapter in our lives.

Don't get me wrong, this is going to be a very hard move to make. We have LOVED living here and being so close to family and all the fun things here in Southern California, however I am so proud of Ryan for being so dedicated and hard-working in planning for his career and providing for our family.

It hard to say how I am feeling... congrats to Ryan and your family. I am so happy he found a residency position, but I am so sad to see you guys leave. It has been so great getting to know you. You will be missed. Now who is going to be my VT partner???

So happy for you guys (sniffle sniffle)- I just need to get some kind of committment from Ryan though that you will all be back where you belong!! :) Love you guys!!! (I'll try not to cry too much)

Congrats to Ryan and your family!!!
This will be so good for you guys, plus, I have heard specializing opens a whole new window of opportunities, especially as far as going to practice wherever you want. We don't have that luxury with out taking some huge risks. We're headed to Wisconsin to do a general residency.
I have a friend here in Village Green who just moved from Oklahoma City. She LOVED it! I bet you guys will to!

that's right moving to somewhere cold after enjoying all that nice weather without us! :) seriously congrats! and i'm sure you guys will love it out there

The Andersons said...

Hurray for Periodontists!!!! I hope I spelled that right. Angela, we almost went there and I am sure you will love it because we have some neighbors that moved into where the Marchant's lived and they actually lived there in a town called Edmund. They said it was SOOOO Fun and safe and had great shopping (an added bonus). Congrats Ryan!!

Stephens Family said...

I am so sad! We will probably never get that chance to go to Disneyland! Way exciting though, you guys are that much closer to being done with school! Yay!

The Walker Family said...
