kentucky catch-up, part 6

On Thursday, Friday, and Saturday morning we attended the Global Health Mission Conference held at Southeast Christian Church. This was the reason Mark was able to be off work, as we were recruiting for Mark's residency program. We were able to go to all the speakers and such; there was a booth set up for Self Regional Healthcare Family Medicine Residency Program in the exhibit hall that we staffed. Since we were already making the drive to Louisville, we took some vacation days and extended our time to visit with family and friends!

Jake could have come to the conference with us, but we thought it would work out much better for everyone (us, Jake, Nana, Grammy and Grandpa...) if he stayed and played with the grandparents. Grammy and Grandpa had Jake on Thursday, and they had a party while we were gone! Lots of family came over to see Jake that night. Mark's cousin Rachel was in from college and got to meet Jake for the first time. She was so excited! On Friday and Saturday, Jake got to spend time with both Nana and Grammy and Grandpa. Nana was watching Jake's cousin Paige for the weekend, and we thought a 6 month old and a 7 month old baby would be a little much for Nana by herself (or anyone else for that matter!). It worked out perfectly! They had so much fun watching Jake and Paige play together, and Nana and Grammy were able to visit. It was so nice to have family here to watch Jake while Mark and I enjoyed some quality time together. Thank you!

Jake is very focused on those tails!
