Roots planted

It's official! We're homeowners! We closed on Halloween. The movers hauled our furniture from our old address to our new one on the first of November. We were "settled" enough to have family over for pizza and cake on my birthday - November 2nd. We've been spending the last 2 weeks unpacking and putting things away and enjoying all of the space! Maddie's doing great at her new school and we're looking forward to meeting our neighbors.

Last Monday I got a message from the health science admissions department. My name had come up as an alternate for the nursing program and I needed to let them know by 4:30 pm on Tuesday if I was ready. Aaron and I talked about it and decided to go for it. I responded on Monday afternoon and then got a phone call on Tuesday around Noon that I was officially IN the program. Crazy! I went to orientation yesterday. I'm excited and a little scared. This will be a big change and sacrifice for our family, requiring effort from everyone. I'm nervous about being a student again, it's been 2 1/2 years and I had two fewer kids at the time. ;) I know it will work out. Wish me luck!

We have internet service and our computer is all fixed so I should be able to post more often. I will try and get some pictures uploaded later this week.

Oh, well, I guess I haven't been paying attention (or reading your blog obviously)... I hadn't realized you moved already. Might expalin why I haven't seen you around much, though. I did know aobut the nursing program though... Congratulations on both counts!
