Some real news!

First things first, last weekend we made the 2,000-mile round trip to Salt Lake City and back. While there, Tim had a great interview with the audiology faculty at the University of Utah. It was a great experience for him to see what other interviews may be like, and to get a feel for how an AuD program operates. We will have to wait a week or two before we will know if Tim is accepted there nor not.
We were lucky enough to be able to stay with Heather's Aunt and Uncle (Heather and Cevan)and they were more than hospitable to us. We really enjoyed spending some time with their two boys, Nicolas and Lucas. So cute!

Now on to the real news!

If you haven't heard yet, today was a very special day. Tim got an acceptance letter in the mail from his first pick of schools, Vanderbilt University!! What a blessing to finally hear back from them and to get accepted! We are going to wait and see which other schools accept him and how much financial aid they are willing to grant before we say yes to Vanderbilt. But right now it's looking like we'll be moving to Nashville this summer! Tim needs to go visit the campus within the next 6 weeks. Heather will probably go with to help look for a new home. Exciting!

We are grateful you all are so supportive of us during this HUGE transition. We are looking forward to the exciting days ahead and will, of course, keep you posted on all the important details. Until next time...
