We took a short trip to Seattle for the 4th of July and visited Jeremy's brother and his family. It was a lot of fun and we can't wait to go back and spend some more time there. Our summer has also been filled with weddings, and it has been a lot of fun to go eat free food and catch up with old friends.
Our most recent good news is that Rachelle was recently published in the CDC's Emerging Infectious Diseases (EID) journal. She is the primary author and the article deals with her thesis research for her Master's degree. EID is one of the top five infectious disease journals in the world, and it is a wonderful opportunity for Rachelle to have her work recognized. The wonderful thing about the journal is, because it is a government journal, access is free! Go check it out. The link is: http://www.cdc.gov/eid/content/13/8/1225.htm.
