Finally....we Matched to a residency program!

We had a wonderful day on Thursday, March 18th.  It was filled with great news, great friends, and lots of fun activities. 



Steven's graduating class met at the Hershey Country Club at 10:30.  We listened to a few speakers and then they passed out a white envelope to each student and did a countdown from 10 and let them open the envelope together to see where the next four years of their lives would be spent.



We matched to Albuquerque, New Mexico!  It was our second choice to Utah.  We were ecstatic to match at any of our top 3 schools...and we did!   SUNSHINE....a novelty in Hershey will be in abundance in our new home.  Not to mention we will be much closer to family and back to the West side of the US.




After the match ceremony we spent the evening sans kiddos at a nice dinner with our entire graduating LDS class family.  We ate at Macaroni Grill and had a great time chatting with our friends....we sure will miss them!



But for now we are focused on our trip to NYC next weekend and lots of packing!  I don't want to leave out our trip to Outer Banks, North Carolina the first week in May with our class!  14 adults, 14 children in one huge house, check it out!

WAHOO!!! We are glad to have you back in the WEST! Of course we will miss Wilton Armatel (I spelled it wrong) and the Amish, but now we can find a new something wonderful and see lots of Native American stuff. We're second in line for sleeping on the floor- right after Jess!

Wow Albuquerque! That is awesome. My brother ranked that as number one but also got his number two. He was really bummed to not get to go there. I guess it is really awesome there so congratulations! Good luck with the move and all that fun stuff.
