What is in our future?

Jeff came to me a couple of years ago and wanted to go back to school and get his MBA (Masters in Business). He never acted on it, but he felt that at some point that was what he wanted to do (and more importantly what he was supposed to do). Jeff comes from a family that is really big on graduate education. His Dad got his PhD, his brothers are both doctors, and his sister is a veterinarian. I think it is in their blood to get the urge to go back to school. Jeff was in pre-med at BYU, but had a crazy sports injury and spent 1-2 weeks in intensive care, and there he found out he hated hospitals and the moment he got out he changed his major. It's a good thing because he is very active and social so being in a hospital would have been torture.

So let me tell you... I was a little unsure how I felt when he said he was serious about applying now. Really? Now? Almost 4 kids later?? That's kinda a lot to soak in. I want to slow life down, not add to it. I guess it's better to do it now then come to me in 2 more years and want to do it. Everything seemed to be last minute, but he pulled it off and got it all done. I'm just glad he got it all in on-time. He applied to.....

BYU- Accepted

Duke- Accepted to the Cross Continent MBA (International Program)

Texas University- He has interviewed and is waiting to hear back.

UCLA- Was a NO go

Harvard- Is probably a NO go as well, but waiting to hear

And now it's the waiting game. We are not sure what our plans are just yet. Who knows? If Jeff doesn't get in where we feel like we are supposed to be, we could end up staying here in Las Vegas and reapplying for next year. Jeff does has an exciting job that he really likes. It is really fun and it is the perfect job for him, so I think it would be hard to leave it anyway. Regardless of our path, I love him and will support him in whatever we do. I feel comfortable that we will be where we are supposed to be!
