Some updates

We are officially moving to Tennessee! I am so excited!

I am less excited about the expense of moving and taking a turn of driving a 16 foot moving truck that is towing our car across America. Oh well. It'll be an adventure. I google mapped the drive and brilliant google told me I could do the 1,700 miles in a day and and hour. Did you also know you can map you travel by foot? However this is what google says about walking.

Walking directions are in beta.
Use caution – This route may be missing sidewalks or pedestrian paths.
Walking directions to Murfreesboro, TN
1,654 mi – about 22 days 10 hours

Somehow it's less mileage if you walk. Go figure.

Earlier this month, we had some fun for my birthday. John took me to baby animal days again, we went out to dinner at our favorite italian place here in Logan, went to the temple and had an awesome day. John looks nearly hairless because I buzzed him for military training. Just in time for some pictures. Please ignore his slightly squinty eyes. I am proud that mine are open. This is an accomplishment.

T-e-n-n-e-s-s-e-e

Lately I either I really love or hate getting the mail. It's either medical bills, or letters about grad school. Let's talk about grad school letters. So, John has applied to 4 so far and has heard from 3. He's been accepted to Pacific University in Oregon, Middle Tennessee State University in Murfreesboro and made the alternate list for Western Kentucky University. Western Kentucky told us they'd let us know by July, but pretty sure we will have decided by then. We're leaning towards Middle Tennessee State and have wanted to go there for over a year, so we're pretty stoked to have heard from them this early after applying the beginning of March.

I've been looking up apartments, rental trucks all sorts of moving stuff figuring out how we'll get to do this whole thing. It's gonna be fun.
