Coming August 2011...


California girls!
You heard me. We will be moving to the Pasadena area in August so that Ryan can attend graduate school there. He had interviews at Georgetown in Washington DC and also Kaiser Permanente School of Anesthesia in Pasadena. After lots of hard work and preparation, he was accepted to both schools (and of course he killed his interviews)! After much thought, he chose to accept the offer to go to California. Why? It's closer to home, warmer, beautiful... you get the point. Oh, and it has a great program. He was actually accepted for fall 2012 and was an alternate this year for Kaiser, but they just called us today and told us that he has been accepted! I couldn't be more proud of him! He has worked so hard for this and he so totally deserves it. I'm so excited for our adventures, but a little nervous to be so far away from what I know as home. Wish us luck!

YAY!!! Thats so great you guys!!! I have a lot of family from Pasadena and they all talk about the good old days visiting my Grandparents there. I barely remember it though.

For me when we moved out here it was hard for about 6 or 8 months but then you make friends and learn the roads better and develop your faves for stores and restaurants and such. I'm jealous your closer than I am and I can't wait to move back out west!!!!!!!!!!! I'm also sad that you won't be a quick 4 hour drive away but I will survive:)
