education update~

well as most of my blog readers know garran has decided to pursue more education. for a while we have been going back and forth about where we should go to continue his education. so finally the other night we sat down and picked eight schools we will be applying too. i know a few of you have been curious. so here is the list, in no special order. although i can tell you that i think number one is his top pick!
  1. University of Tennessee Knoxville
  2. University of Iowa
  3. University of Northern Illinois
  4. Indiana University
  5. Arizona State University
  6. University of Georgia
  7. Western Carolina University
  8. BYU

ok so there it is. one of these places will be our new home before to long.. well it will still be a while but whatever. these are the schools we will be applying to. wish us luck!

our story

Midwest, United States
I love the saying "the best thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother". My husband does an amazing job of that. I am truly married to my best friend. We laugh often and try to see the best in every situation, or at least find the humor in it. We have four beautiful children. Cullan (7) Kael (6) Briea (3) and Ayla (2). We are currently living in Illinois while Garran attends Grad School. He is a talented print maker and is enjoying his time here. He has a website if you are interested. www.garrangillespie.com Right now we are living every day to the fullest and trying to have as much fun as possible along the way!!

This explains why I blog so much RIGHT?

“Your journal is your autobiography, so it should be kept carefully. You are unique, and there may be incidents in your experience that are more noble and praiseworthy in their way than those recorded in any other life. …
“What could you do better for your children and your children’s children than to record the story of your life, your triumphs over adversity, your recovery after a fall, your progress when all seemed black, your rejoicing when you had finally achieved?”
Elder Spencer W Kimball!

I need to read this every morning!

"It isn't as bad as you sometimes think it is. It all works out. Don't worry. I say that to myself every morning. It all works out in the end. Put your trust in God, and move forward with faith and confidence in the future. The Lord will not forsake us. He will not forsake us. If we will put our trust in Him, if we will pray to Him, if we will live worthy of His blessings, He will hear our prayers."

-President Gordon B. Hinckley
