Here it goes

So this big news may not seem that big to you.. but its pretty big for me! 

(and I think Matt would also agree.. so I guess its big for our little family.)

I have decided to make a bit of a career change and change my major.. 

which changes our future as a family! 

As many of you know I graduated 2 1/2 years ago from LDSBC in interior design. I loved school, and loved my degree, but it has always been really important to me to get my bachelors degree. So I transferred to Weber to start my bachelors in Elementary Education. Because I continued to get the run around with the Elem. Ed department, I have spent the last 2 years taking generals in order to apply to the program. Yes thats right, I currently have enough credit hours to have a bachelors degree.. but still dont have it. If I continued in the Elementary Ed. program I am projected to graduate in 2 1/2 years, assuming I get into all the classes I need when I need them. 

(Scheduling at Weber is a whole other issue.. dont get me started.)

So as of this last week, I have officially declared my Major in Family Studies and will be graduating in a year! It took a lot of thought, prayer, researching and discussion with my family, but I am feeling so relieved and feel like I have made the right decision. 

Although I dont know specifically what I want to be doing as a career with my degree, I know it is the right direction for me, and it is very likely that after graduating I will continue on and get my Masters degree. 

I feel a huge relief after making this decision and I know that it will be best for me and my little family! The exciting part is.. because I will be finishing school a lot sooner than planned, we may start our family a lot sooner than planned! :) 

No I am not pregnant, and dont plan on getting pregnant any time soon.. but its nice to know that the pressure of finishing school is off my sholders and I can relax a little bit! So I guess Matt was right.. everything will work out and it is working out!

I am sorry if this was not the big news you were expecting... but for me... it is really big! :)

Also, Our 1 year anniversary is in a couple days and I really can't believe how quickly time has gone by! This last year has been the greatest of my life and I can't wait to see what the next year has in store for us!
