Well, I guess it's time I update our blog. We have been busy, busy, busy! Since I last posted, we hit the ground running trying to get ready to move to Virginia. We were also busy with other things. I took a girls trip to the beach and then we threw a wedding shower, went to a couple of fundraisers, attended my school's winter festival, celebrated my birthday, and took a trip to the Bahamas!
We went to the Atlantis Resort in the Bahamas with Temp's parents and Allen, Temp's brother, for Spring Break. It was so much fun! The weather was perfect and I got to lie by the pool all day! Temp and Allen were busy with all the water slides and snorkeling! I was a very relaxing trip. While we were there, we boarded the dogs. When we picked them up, we were made aware of a tear on Millie's ear. They kept her and had to put stitches in 2 places. She goes back this Wednesday to have them removed. She's a tough dog. She hasn't complained once!
We just got back from a weekend in Florence with my family. We had a lot of fun visiting with them. It was relaxing as well. Next weekend for Easter, we are going to Montgomery to spend it with the Millsaps.
As for moving, we are still trying to get things checked off our list. I am in the process of finishing the paper work for applying to a VA teacher's certificate. I have already completed one application for a school system in Charlottesville. They still haven't posted any openings for next year though.
We are going up there at the end of April to look for a place to live. We are hoping to find a house to rent with a backyard. The weekend we go is also Darden Days. It is a time for Temp to meet other students and teachers. We are excited, but anxious for the weekend to come.
On a happier note, we just booked plane tickets to Europe. We are going in June for about 2 1/2 weeks. We plan on starting in Greece; spending most of our time in Italy; visiting Monte Carlo, Monaco; Bordeaux, France; then spending a few days in Spain before we head back to the US.
We have a busy next few weeks coming up too! Hopefully I will have some time in there to post some new blogs. Thanks for reading!

Wahoo!
We found out Wednesday night that Temp got accepted to business school at Darden (Virginia)!!! Wooo- hoooo!!! Although he is still waitlisted at Tuck (Dartmouth), we are going to plan on moving to Charlottesville. We will hear from Tuck anytime between March- July. If we get in there, we will have a decision to make. We have decided to cross that bridge IF we get to it!
Right now, we are in the process of deciding on plans for this spring and summer. We are hoping to spend some time with our friends and family before we move. We also have a lot to do to get ready for the move. We have to find somewhere to live. I need to find a job up there. We have to pack our stuff! (Yuck!) We'd also like to take a trip to Greece!
We want to thank all of our families and friends for their support during this entire process. We know they are all excited for us, but sad to see us go. We love you all very much!

Just so you know...
There seems to be some speculation about why we started this blog. I guess most people start blogs when they have children so that distant family can keep up with pictures and stories. That is not why we started this blog. Sorry to disappoint some of you but we are still a couple of years away from having any children. The real reason we started this blog cannot be stated at this time. Hopefully we will know something in the near future and will be able to "spill our guts." Until then...it's just a waiting game. That's why I don't have much to post yet...
As for now, please pray for us...
