We would like to announce that Steve got into Loma Linda Dental School!!!!!!!!! We are sooooo excited and happy that his 4 years of applying paid off!! Steve got a phone call from the dental school secretaries who were so excited to tell him that he is in (they are not suppose to call and tell anyone-- especially because the letters have not been mailed yet). The fact that Steve got to know them well and they liked Steve (who wouldn't?) really helped. It proves that it's who you know that helps in things like this.

We are also packing, taking care of a newborn, Steve is working overtime, and I'm taking 9 credits of nursing courses online. Life is very busy! Life is great though-- we are so excited that we know what we will be doing with our lives for the next 4 years.

Craig- "Well I'll tell you what the Mormon's compelling doctrine is that makes us different from everyone: We have ...
