Class of 2008

I'm finished!!!! Well, actually I have six more weeks of school, but I still got to walk last Friday. It was a very nice graduation and I was lucky enough to have both of my parents fly in for it. I think the best part of this weekend was being able to say "Look Dad, I did it!" I was also lucky enough to graduate with honors. (I know I sound like I am bragging like crazy, but I have never been able to do that before) Luckily, they didn't count my college GPA before hygiene school. I will miss so many of the girls that I have seen everyday for the past two years. I have made friends that I know will last forever! Look out world- Here we come!

The Final Countdown!

Sorry for the serious lag in blog posts! I think life will only be crazy for another month or so (hence- the final countdown). And I'm trying to make a point to blog a little more. SO, the good news for the day is that I survived my national board. When I say "survived" that doesn't mean that I passed... I'm just glad it's over and I don't have to worry about it until I get my results in 6 weeks. This is not our greatest picture, but it is seriously the only one we've taken in the past couple of months. :0) The next month is going to be an exciting one! I think we have family here ever weekend in April, two graduations, and a trip to Dallas! There will not be a blog drought next month! I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter! We love you all!

Only 2 Weeks!

That's right... only two more weeks until national boards! That's only 14 more days... 336 hours. I should probably be studying instead of blogging about it. (I think the song is appropriate though)

And the Winner Is...

Dallas! Andrew accepted an offer with AAFES this morning. We'll see how much of that Texas pride we can acquire! We've been looking at apartments for the past couple of weeks and we can't seem to decide on one. We're trying to plan a trip to really get a feel for the area sometime in April or May. We expect lots of visits from everyone!

Dallas, Rochester, or Dublin?

Andrew and I are lucky enough to have two different job offers and we're waiting on a possible third. We are very excited. In 6 months we will be settled in Texas, Minnesota, or Ohio. When we were first married we both decided that Dallas was one of the places we would like to end up, but we're still trying to make a final decision. We will keep everybody posted!

Trip South!

We went to visit our good friends Amber and Tim this past weekend. As always, we had a blast hanging out with them. Lucky for us we got some great pictures too! We can't wait to see the newest member of their family in the flesh! With any luck it will be a June 23rd birthday (my birthday). It was really nice for the two of us to get away from Provo for a couple of days. This is going to be the climax of our schooling. Thankfully, this should be the last semester for both of us! We're trying very hard to fight the urge to be incredibly involved in ourselves. I think it will be tons easier in 6 months.

Christmas Presents!

Tis' the season for giving, and Angela gave me a great Christmas present today. Just to preface... I'm starting to realize that I am totally turning into a dental geek! I find myself making jokes, and then laughing at myself about things that really aren't that funny. With that said, Angela gave me a shirt that says "your boyfriend has perio". I only got Andrew to laugh after I explained this is the equivalent to saying "your boyfriend has herpes" or "your boyfriend is diseased". It is hilarious that they actually put saying like this on a shirt. Anyways, thanks for the laugh Ang! I think I'll wear my shirt to school on perio day (I'm sure my teachers and patients would love that)!
