JHUSON!

SO... rather than going through the details of my past year living in Utah and how I have arrived at this point in my life, I'll sum it up by saying how incredibly GRATEFUL I am for the trials I have endured and the blessings I have been afforded.  Being the (somewhat) OCD planner that I am, it has been quite a struggle going through the past year not knowing where I would be for school, but I had faith that I would end up somewhere -- and more importantly, somewhere I needed to be.  And would you believe it?  That somewhere was in BALTIMORE!  Never saw that one coming!  But I was accepted to the Johns Hopkins School of Nursing, and will begin there this JUNE!  Needless to say... the past month has been a bit stressful and I am slightly anxious about my upcoming move across the country... but I couldn't be happier, or more excited!  Especially after my trip last weekend back east to check out my new home...  only a couple more months, and I can't wait!  Here are a few pictures from the trip:
