California Dreamin'

Since last summer Andrew has been working ever so diligently on his Physical Therapy school quest. He studied hard for the GRE, took a GRE prep-course, took the GRE (twice- for good measure), researched schools, applied to schools, and waited. Then, the interviewing began. He interviewed with several schools, then waited. Then the letters of acceptance started arriving. His turn to make them wait.


After a lot of thought, prayer, weighing the pros and cons, researching the school and the PT programs... a decision has finally been made. Andrew will be attending the University of the Pacific in Stockton, California. The program is accelerated, a two year doctoral program...not bad! We will be a headed to the golden state late this summer. We will miss our friends and family in Utah, but look forward to the adventure ahead.


Congratulations to Andrew. He has worked so hard through this whole process. He has been blessed for his efforts, and I know he will be a stellar student, and therapist.
