Texas Pride

We are very excited to announce that Jake accepted a position for the University of North Texas clinical psychology program. This means that we will likely be living in the Dallas-Fort Worth area for the next 4-5 years. With me being from California and Jake being from Idaho, who would have thought that we would become Texans for a few years. Needless to say, we're really excited...and relieved...and happy. Thank you to everyone who has supported us through the grad application process. We appreciate your thoughts and prayers.

God bless Texas!

Congrats on getting in!! Is this near Denton, TX? If so, my best friend lives out there, and if you guys don't know anyone out that way, he could help you find your way around. Erin and I are bummed IL didn't work out. ;)

I see, we leave Texas and now everyone else is moving there? You guys will really love it. I am pretty sure that anyone who spends a few years in Texas gets bit by that Texas Pride. It is a wonderful place, great weather, and amazing people! We are really excited for you :)

Congratulations guys! That must be nice to have the decision made and to start getting ready. I've heard Dallas is a really nice area. We're still looking at Univ. of Houston for law school so we may both be Texans!
