Rob has been accepted to the University of Utah School of Medicine!!



Looks like we will be Utes for a little longer! We just about fainted. We had ruled it out...our dream school...our top pick...numero uno...but it is also the most competitive. Plus, as of last week, they cut the seats by 20 seats for incoming students. So we were counting on going to Arizona for sure...then today, Rob got a "small" letter in the mail, which in the past was not good news. Then he opened it and it began with, "we are delighted to extend..." WOW! We are freaking out. My dream of having a new house (possible in Arizona) is slashed, but we are in our dream school, close to family and friends. I am so proud of my husband!!! Holy cow. You beat the odds. I never have seen anyone work harder for their dreams. You are so my McDreamy! I will be there cheering you on the whole way! But when can we move from the cinder block? Ha ha!
