Ding, Dong! Anyone home?

Hello again! It's been awhile, and I sincerely apologize...I do have a reason though...the past few months have been filled with big decisions, and I didn't really want to write anything until they were all finalized. Here is what we have been up to:

1. Morgan applied to grad schools. He was accepted into two schools, The University of Utah and Shenandoah (in Winchester, VA). It was a difficult decision to make since we both felt passionately about both schools. We even talked about how we hoped it wouldn't come down to choosing between Virginia and Utah because we didn't want to have to make that decision! :) Go figure...I guess the Lord knew we need the test. After some serious prayer and discussion, we have decided that we will be attending.....................................................................................................

The University of Utah!

(Don't worry though, we will still be Cougars at heart.)

School starts in mid-May, so we will hopefully find housing and move up there around May 1st. It will be a new adventure...but we are looking forward to it.

2. I was in the Provo Bridal Fair in February and was lucky enough to book 7 weddings! I am really looking forward to them...there is a wide variety of venues and types of weddings, so it will be an adventure! :)

3. I opened a shop on Etsy selling fine art prints, and yesterday I made my first two sales!! :) It was a thrilling moment, let me tell you!

4. I was able to visit my mom and siblings for three weeks during January in Virginia! That was so much fun...we were snowed in a lot but were able to keep ourselves entertained. I love my family!

5. I was also able to visit my best friend Ashley last week in California. It was so fun to see her and hang out again. Love that girl!

Anywho, that is what's going on in our lives these days! :) I hope you are all doing well and loving life. I can't wait for it to be Spring! :)

Sounds very busy! I hope you can find the best housing and if you have questions you can call me. sorry if Jordan stepped over his limits, I kept telling him to leave you guys alone and let you make your own decisions. Sorry again. If you need help let me know.

ps you guys will get housing up here, Merrill just likes to stress people out. There are one bedroom apartments open right now, and there will be a ton after graduation. You will be fine!
