NEWS:
Ever since September ,when Scott and I went to Spokane
for him to take the LSAT at Gonzaga....we pretty much fell in love
with the idea of living there to go to Law School.
We've just been assuming that's where we'd go.
We've looked at apartments online, scheduled a campus tour over spring break,
and have gotten really excited about moving there. We've even looked at
the moving costs and have begun to save for it...
We figured it would be a nice change, bigger city, close enough to make
weekend trips home. We've heard about others who love living there
and have made good friends, which we were really are looking forward to.
Well yesterday, we got our first rejection letter. Guess where it was from.
Yep, Gonzaga.
We're both kind of in a state of shock. We thought FOR SURE that's where we would go.
After all, Scott's GPA is higher than the range they accept. His LSAT score is right where they want it to be. We've heard that they love returned missionaries,
we even thought we'd get a great scholarship because of Scott's good grades.
Bummer.
So now we're wondering where we're going to end up.
Could be:
Oregon, Idaho, Las Vegas, Seattle, North Carolina, South Carolina, New York, Texas, Connecticut, or Arizona.
Guess we won't be where WE thought we were supposed to be...but
we're keeping in mind that Heavenly Father is looking out for us
and we'll end up where HE knows we're supposed to be.
We should be hearing back from other schools starting in April.
Guess we'll know then.

Oh that stinks! BYU forgot to send his transcripts out so he had to wait an entire year before applying again. On the Bright side he then met me and we got married!!! So ya never know what will happen. Also I am crossing my fingers for Seattle :) Keep us posted and our place is always welcome if you need/want to come visit!
Oh Ashley! Boy do I know the feeling of utter dissapointment! I am still struggling with asking, "Why?" What was so blasted wrong with MY plan? *Sigh* I'm sure you're tired of hearing "It'll all work out..." I have found Oreo's make everything better! :) That's my words of wisdom!
OH if it's Arizona I'm going to be excited and ticked all at the same time! I tried for years to recruit for someone to live by us and now we're gone. good luck! I hope it all works out!
