Penn State Here We Come


As most of you know Nathan took the GMAT a while back. Well, since then a lot has changed. He went on to apply for graduate school at three great schools, William & Mary, Boise State, and Penn State. They all have great programs so we would have been happy either way. He was delighted to find that all three accepted him into their MBA programs. This is when the decision came down to job placement after graduation. Penn State won in that category and Nathan is really excited to start hitting the books as a grad student at Penn State's SMEAL College of Business. So obviously Nathan cannot go to Pennsylvania without his family. So Cosette and I will also be moving to State College along with him. He starts classes on August 9th. We move in on August 7th. Crazy I know but we are just happy we found a place to live. My Dad has been great at helping us find a place. He even went to check it out for us to make sure that it's livable. It's going to be nice being so close to my family but at the same time we are going to miss our friends here a lot. I cannot tell you how much we have enjoyed living here in Las Vegas. Our family has been forever blessed by the people here.

Overall, we are excited for our next big adventure as a family. It's not going to be easy but we know that this is what needs to be done for us to have a better future for our family. It's going to be a growing experience for all of us. I'm so glad that Nathan got into this program, I know he'll do well.

I can't believe you are leaving!!! I really wish we got together more over the last two years but we'll have to get together at least one more time before you move. Oh, and congrats to Nate :)!

Congrats guys! Chad says for Nate to say hi to professor Singh, he was his finance professor last year.

Good luck in the next chapter of your life, grad school is challenge (for the all of you!) but you guys can totally do it and have so much fun too.
