Nathan got accepted to the Spring/Fall track at BYU-I! So we head off this September. He was a little bummed at first because he wanted Fall/Winter but he's starting to like the idea now. I love the idea for a lot of reasons, first of all, we don't have to be in Rexburg for winter!! That not only means we avoid the really cold temperature but we don't have to haul our big box of Christmas decorations back and forth too. Second of all. We get to come home twice during the year because we'll have to come back for the winter and then we'll have to come back for the summer too. So we'll pretty much come back after each semester. I really like that because then Benny and Ephraim will have more memories with their grandparents and stuff. Second of all, it mean me and Nathan only have to save up for 4 months of schooling instead of 8 months before we can come back and replenish our savings for the next semester. That is a big relief. Also since we'll be moving back and forth so much it doesn't make sense to take all of our furniture back and forth so that means we'll just leave our furniture here and get furnished apartments so a lot less packing up for us!!! I've been looking at apartments already and found one that seems like we can get and they also say they have some furnishings that they won't charge us for and it sounds like they have the basics we need. I've already applied and am just waiting for a call back. Anyways, here's a link to the apartment blog so you can see some pictures. We would be getting the Tri-plex basement apartment. Not luxurious but it has two bedrooms and that's what really matters.

  2. Yeah. What a relief to know! Just knowing relieves a lot of pressure. Not knowing when Cody will get into the program is nerve raking, it could be up to a year or more! The apartment looks great! It's so nice having it already furnished, that's the way to go. This also means we will get to see you more? Only 5 hours away? huh, huh?

  3. The apartment looks good. I hope you get it. I like that the walls are painted brownish - I get tired of all the boring white walls.
