grad school

As many of you may know, I am applying to business school... an MBA would be a phenomenal compliment to my architecture and design background. Whatever God has for this next season of life, this application process has been helpful and provided insights as to where I am and where I want to be. I have several essays to write, in which I have to articulate my career goals and express in depth what I've learned and how I've grown through my experiences. Growth isn't always easy when you're in the middle, but looking back is incredible. If we could only remember this when life is rough huh?!

fabulous guests

My parents came down to see us for a couple weeks in October - so fun to have them out! It's amazing how spending time with my parents is a huge "aha" moment. I haven't seen them a ton during the past couple years, so when we do have time together I am reminded where my enthusiasm comes from, or why i think having appetizers every every night is normal. Like someone once quoted, "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree." So true. It truly was a delight to show them around and enjoy their company. We took them to Matt's graduation and grad ball, drove to the beautiful white sand beaches of Destin, had our fill of southern food, and spent some time in Atlanta, catching up with family friends. Thanks for coming, Mom and Dad!
