I am number 4 of 5 children. My parents celebrated their 29th anniversary this Sunday. I want to be there for all of my siblings and also my brother in law. ALSO, I want to be there for my cousins, even if it is just by praying for them.

How I did it: My family and I drove up to Lake Tahoe! My dad flew up for a CME (continued medical education) and my mom, naomi, oliver, andrew, mark, james, and I drove up.
