When it rains it pours


And in this case, it's in a good way! We thought that phrase was appropriate for what's been going on with us and our rainy-but-beautiful Seattle, WA school options. While this picture might lead you to believe that we're relocating to Seattle, it's not quite that set in stone. But we're excited that Seattle is becoming a more viable (and appealing) option all the time. Kelsey has been invited for interviews at both Seattle University (this weekend) and University of Washington (at the end of the month) for their premiere public service scholarship programs. Both schools are generously covering airfare and housing for the trips, which is a real thrill for our student budget! :) We're hoping/planning to fly Jordan out as well for the UW interview, so he can visit UW's campus and check out the DPT program (which he was accepted to last month, what a stud). The interview dates also happen to be the weekend of our 4-year anniversary, so we will say thank you in advance to the complimentary and very plush hotel stay we get to have because of the scholarship interview! Should be a fun and exciting weekend of *terrifying* interviews and lovely adventures exploring Seattle. Can't wait!

As for USC... we're still crossing our fingers for an interview for their scholarship too, but it's an incredibly competitive process (only one incoming student gets it). We should hear in the next week or so whether Kelsey got that interview, which would be scheduled back-to-back with UW's. Fewf! Pretty crazy, but it would be so great to have those options, and we really are rooting for USC because the programs are amazing.

Here's to new adventures!
