Is That Your Final Answer?

As of today Jessica's decision for College is to go to the University of Utah. I am very happy that she has made a decision and that she is excited about her future and I am excited for her. I would be lying if I didn't admit that I was a little sad that she did not choose Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD). I really think she would have enjoyed the learning environment at Savannah and would have enjoyed that experience. Ultimately it is her choice and it is time for me to recognize that she is growing up and needs to make her own decisions. We are so proud of Jessica and look forward to all that lies ahead for her.

Decisions, Decisions

 

Senior year is here and graduation is right around the corner which in turn means that it is time to pick a College. Jessica has been accepted to the University of Utah and Savannah College of Art and Design, she has a desire to study Architecture and Interior Design. She is having a difficult time deciding which school to attend, to help her make a decision we took a weekend trip to Savannah to visit the campus, take a tour and get a feel for the City. We had a wonderful time despite getting lost a few times, if only we would have had a GPS while we were walking around town. The school has so much to offer and the campus is absolutely beautiful. I'm not sure the trip helped Jessica made a decision, it actually made it more difficult. She is taking the time to consider all of her options and make the right choice, keep an eye on our blog for her final decision.

Hannah's game

All good things must come to an end...

Last week Jessica's high school soccer team played in a playoff game on Tuesday and won their game. They advanced to the next round against a Houston team on Friday evening. The game was very exciting and the girls dominated most of the game ending in a 1 - 1 tie, playoff games can not end in a tie so it went into a double overtime still with a 1 - 1 tie. Then the game went into penalty kicks, after several amazing penalty kicks by both teams and a back and forth tie the game finally ended with the Houston team winning. It was very sad, the team worked so hard all season and should have won that game. It was especially sad for the Seniors who realized when it was over that would be the last time they played together. Unfortunately all good things must come to an end, thus the end of Jessica's high school soccer career. Hopefully she will have an opportunity to play in College.
