January 28th

January 28, 2011 brought even more exciting news for our little family! At about 8:30 am TJ received a call from UMKC informing him that they would love to have him as a Dental student starting fall of 2011. It goes right up there with our wedding day, and Cohen's birth as one of the BEST days ever! We were so relieved that TJ wouldn't have to go two semesters at Logan, and we wouldn't have to wait another year and go through the dreadful and expensive application process again. We know a lot of prayers were given in our behalf and our pursuit of this goal and we are so thankful to all of you who helped get us to this day! We had to celebrate and wish we could have had you all there but we pulled together all those that we could and went to dinner and had chocolate cake and ice-cream for dessert!

All of us at dinner (Karlinsey's, Fullers, Pops & Gem, Mirae & Jay, & Tyler, Linds & Lyla)

TJ & I....don't we look so happy!

I wanted to go buy a cake and Gem suggested we just make one! I decorated it which led Gem to a great   idea for my birthday gift...more to come on that in the next post.

TJ in his new UMKC dentistry shirt...we seriously couldn't stop smiling. And again we can't thank all of you enough for everything you did to help us get here! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!! (We might even throw in some free dental work we are so thankful!)
