We have decided on University of South Florida. Yay. It was a really hard decision, and it feels good to have made it. I was really set on ASU for my own selfish reasons but after a lot of prayer and fasting and discussion with Andy we came to our decision. University of South Florida has offered Andy an assistanship where he would work for 10 hours a week and it will cover 12 credits and also pay $110 a week. No other school could offer anything close to that. We also felt really good about their program and felt he would get the best training there as well. It was hard for me to accept this just becuase it is so far away and I hate the humidity, but it will be an adventure and a chance of a lifetime to live somewhere completely new for a while. It will be really hard leaving friends and being even further away from family but it will only be for 3 maybe 4 years (depending on where Andy does his externship). I am excited now to live by a beach, and have no more freezing cold gloomy winters! Our door will always be open to anyone who wants to visit us in Tampa, Florida!

YAAAAY. Florida sounds fun. Man I'd kill to live near a beach.

Congratulations on making a decision. Those life alterting decisions aren't always the easiest to make, but such a relief to finally have some direction. Good luck with the humidity. I don't think I could handle it. We'll miss being able to see you guys when we come to Utah, but it's for the best. Enjoy it!
