Columbia Law School Class of 2012

Today, Amanda and I sat down and decided which borough of NYC we are going to be living in for the next three years. We were considering two different schools in NYC so while we were planning on moving there, we didn't know exactly where. I feel very blessed to attend the school that has been my first choice for the last several years. In fact, I have wanted to go to Columbia since I watched President Hinckley's biography video as a Freshman and found out that he had wanted to go there for his graduate training. If it was good enough for him then I am more than happy to be there too. Thanks to family and friends for your support and encouragement. Most of all, thanks to Amanda. She has been the best support I could ever ask for and she deserves a lot of the credit for any good things that happen to come my way.

List of good things that happened today

1. I ate a Krispy Kreme doughnut.
2. I gave Amanda her very own Krispy Kreme doughnut.
3. Amanda finished her 4th and final paper this semester. I'm not sure who is more relieved.
4. Dinner was just about ready when I got home.
5. I was accepted to Columbia Law School while on the phone with the in-laws. It was ironic because I was secretly hoping that they were calling because the acceptance had come in the mail. Then, the long-anticipated email spontaneously arrived in the middle of our conversation.
6. Amanda plucked my eyebrows. No, wait, that belongs on another list.
7. I worked out on our home gym.

I think I can see Columbia down there.....

That's us getting our celebration on, 10 months in advance.
(We are at the Empire State Building where Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan celebrated too).
