Bragging Moment

I know blogging is WAY overdue, but my parents have been keeping us busy out here in sunny South Carolina! ;)
But I have to brag for just a moment.
In earlier posts, it was mentioned that Aaron got accepted to 2 of the 3 schools he applied for. Well, a few weeks ago, he received a phone call from an unrecognized phone number. He got accepted to the 3rd school!! I can't believe it! He is so smart! He applied to 3 schools and ended up getting accepted to ALL THREE! When he told me he was only going to apply to 3 schools, I had several backup plans in mind for the year we would have to wait to reapply ... but I didn't need them. I'm so proud of him and I hope he'll do just as amazing in Pharmacy school!

On a side note: We miss Rexburg incredibly and Aaron is missing the western landscape, but we get our minds off of the "pain" by swimming in the lake and doing some yard work. I know, it's a rough life ;)

Lots of Progress

My recent accomplishments ....

Last night, I wanted beef stogonoff. Aaron informed me that he did not like beef stogonoff. Throw in some corn, take out the sour cream, and throw in a ramen touch and I had him asking for seconds! It's hard to make a meal that Aaron doesn't like, but it's nice to change his mind about a meal =)

Recently, I have taken up crocheting. I started a newborn beanie a month ago and finally finished it (thanks conference!) Due to my embarrassment, I will not post a picture. Let's just say, it was supposed to fit a newborn, but it's wide enough to fit Aaron's head ... but it isn't long enough to even touch his ears (it looks much like a yamaka for a large bear) . I can't decide to finish it off and keep it as a memento of my progress (it can only get better from there right?!) or add a few more rows and turn it into an ugly beanie for Aaron? Keep ya posted on that one ...

In unrelated news, Finals start tomorrow! Then it's graduation time SATURDAY! We are BEYOND stoked!

What's it gonna be?

It's a boy! That's right, it's a little Aaron!

But we'll call him Dawson Robert Nethercott =)

Moving!

We're moving to Atlanta! Aaron got accepted to University of Wyoming AND Mercer University in Atlanta. He had a tough decision to make. After long hard weeks of deciding, Aaron decided to attend Mercer. We're busy making plans, finding jobs, and calling people to make this a smooth move. The bishop of our new ward is excited to meet us and has been hooking us up with information and numbers. It's a good thing we called him too, he told us that our top 3 apartments were all in bad areas O_o. On the bright side, he has several Mercer students in his ward and Mercer graduates =) His neighbor is even a professor there! We are SO excited!

We are sad to leave the Burg though. It's a great school with greater people. It'll be weird to not be in school anymore! What does one do? We'll miss the friends we've gained here as well as our close family here. It's been so fun to go to school with Aaron's sisters and be close enough to visit the family often.

Here's to our new adventure!

Made for each other

So, Aaron voluntarily crawled into a storage container. I instantly took a picture (foramusement's sake) and then I realized that I had a similar picture from my second semester here at BYU-I. I dug through my pictures and laughed. So I had to collage them together for our children's sake. In the meantime I'll show all of you. We're definitely compatible! I love Aaron!

Pharmacy School

Well, I COULD write this long post about things that are happening. But instead, I decided to Google pictures to tell the tale.

Aaron got one of these

Saying he was accepted to this

Where there are lots of these

But on Friday, he is going to one of these

at this school

In this state

where these are close by

So that this woman

Can come by and take care of this

Whenever she pleases.

But that all depends on if Aaron likes Mercer. It is HIS education after all!

Any way it goes, we are so excited that there is a plan in our future. It's nice that we can have a plan that we'll go forward with when we hear back from all the schools.

That's our excitement for now =)

I am so proud of Aaron. We took a gamble of applying to only 3 schools. He got an interview at all 3 and we've already heard back from one of them. What an amazing guy! I don't blame all these schools for wanting him ;). The only downside is he makes it look easy. Believe me, this is NOT an easy process. I love you sweetie!

Bandwagon, Here I come

So we go in for another ultrasound in a few weeks. Hopefully we'll find the gender (I'll only be 17 weeks) Most likely not though. We'll see. But until then, vote! Vote if you think it'll be a boy or a girl! The poll is up above my graduation countdown underneath my header. You only get one chance! It will close the day we find out what it is (obviously).

It'll be fun to see your guesses =)
