"Utah We Love Thee"

Well, today I realized that I hadn't posted anything on the blog about us moving back to Provo at the end of August. So...Guess what everyone? We're moving back to Provo at the end of August! We've been here in Texas on an internship for Aaron. At first we were supposed to come back at the end of August, then Aaron's work liked him so much they offered to extend his internship until the end of December. We decided to stay to save some money for school. What we didn't anticipate was the cost of living here being a lot higher. We haven't been saving as much as we would've hoped. So we started praying about it to decide what to do. Then on the 4th of July Aaron got an email telling him that he'd received a scholarship, a grant, and a smart student grant worth enough to cover the cost of tuition, books, and insurance for the rest of his schooling career. Wow! I love it when the answers to prayers are so obvious! We'll be leaving the last week of August.

It's kind of bitter sweet because we are excited to go back to Utah where we have family, and to get on with school, and to get away from the cock roaches and humidity. But we are going to be really sad to leave our ward here. If we could we'd pack you all up and move you to Utah with us (wouldn't you guys just love that?) :)

As I was looking up pictures on the internet to give this post a little color, I came across some of the BYU Honor Code Posters. These are one of the many things I love about BYU. They have these signs posted all over campus, and I think they are hilarious. The Goldifox one is my favorite. If you can't read it try clicking on it to get a bigger image. But I think it's a humorous way to get the point across. I should see if I can find a picture of the posters that are the reasons why you should take Spring/Summer classes, those are great too. Good ol' BYU I have missed that place and all it's wonderful little quarks.
