Busy Year

Wow, this has been / will continue to be quite a year.

This year, 2008, I graduated with honors from Gordon College, was inducted in to the Phi Alpha Chi honors society, got engaged, will get married, will become officially moved out of my house in New Hampshire (although I haven't really lived there in awhile, except over last Christmas break), was accepted into two PhD. graduate programs for mathematics, deferred for one of them, got a job as a software/database developer, and will eventually purchase my second car.

Not only that, but I have been out to Minnesota once already this year (where I proposed), am flying to Colorado tomorrow, will be taking a honeymoon somewhere in September, and then will be going back to Minnesota for a second wedding reception for all of Alice's friends and family who could not make it out here.

I don't think I've ever done so many things in any one year of my life before...or even any five years!

I'm so thankful for how blessed Alice and I have been this year - blessed by God and our families. Alice and I are even going to be working close to each other (just a town or two apart), which will make our living situation very manageable. And, since Mike is PhD'ing himself in Amherst, we'll still be able to get together semi-regularly. And we'll be living a whole 20ish minutes closer! w00t!
