Plan B

Why can't life just go the way we have planned!?! I guess it's because Someone has a "grander" plan in mind for us, right? We have been planning on going to dental school this fall, but for some reason, none of the dental schools are planning on us coming:). We finally came to grips with the fact that it's time to firm up our Plan B and decide what we are going to do. We have about a million Plan Bs and we don't know what to choose. Should we reapply, choose a different career, move to another state to get residency, join the circus-the possibilities are really endless. It's all up in the air for now.
The good thing is that we get to stick around the area for at least one more year and be close to our family and friends a little longer. We feel like we have maxed out our mooching on my parents and we will be moving out within the next 6 months. We would LOVE to be back in the 147th ward, so if any of you hear about a 2 bedroom apartment opening up-please let us know. Our preference would be to move during the summer/fall change up, but we would be willing to go a little earlier or later.



On a lighter note, Lydia is crawling! She is so much happier now that she can move around on her own. She just keeps growing. We went to the doctor yesterday and she's in the 80th percentile for her height. She'll probably be taller than both of her parents-who would have guessed! Hopefully our sons get those same genes too.

Emily - we are moving out of our unit the end of April and it will be available in May. Its a two bedroom without a washer/dryer - we just used my parents. I am not quite sure how much it will cost but I hear $600. Megan 375-0827.

Oh Emily! Your daughter is sooooo incredibly adorable! Does she get into everything now that she is crawling? I hope you can figure out what you're doing soon! Good luck! Oh, and i'm going to be down that way around the second week of April if you'd like to get together. It would be lots of fun!

I know the McAllister's are moving at the end of April or early May. They have a two bedroom and I'm pretty sure the rent is cheap.

I'm so sorry it's come to a Plan B (I imagine it's frustrating to the max!), but I think it's a safe bet that the Lord has great things in store for you three. :)

Viva the Plan B!!

We know how you feel guys. We were hoping that Med school in Canada would work out last year but it didn't. We were really sad about it but now we feel that being here in the US is really better for us and if it works out that Mike is accepted to Med school it would be better for residency etc. Hopefully that works out, otherwise we have to go to our plan B. But know that whatever works out for you guys and for us it will be for the best. Thank goodness the Lord is watching out for us all.

All I can say to Plan B is "Down with Dental School and long live the Divas!" Nuf said.
