First Law School Acceptance!

So I received my first law school acceptance letter last night upon returning from our night out. At 12:30 am I peeled open a envelope from William and Mary Law School in Williamsburg, VA and read the good news - Accepted

Oh and to sweeten the deal they offered me a Graduate Fellow Scholarship which gives me in-state tuition rates, and an opportunity to work 8-10 hours/week at the law school for another $4K/year, then as if that wasn't enough they added a $5K/year just in case I was feeling picked on. Totaling it all up they offered me roughly $20K/year in scholarship money for the three years so long as I maintain a "B" average and meet my required work hours at the law school. It feels nice to know that a)my application was not a disaster, b)that it is official, I am going to law school, and c) worst case scenario we can pack our bags and attend law school at tuition rates of about 13K/year (which in comparison with some other top-30 schools of $40K plus) means a great value awaits. Only 16 more decisions await.

Last night we had the opportunity to go to So you think you can dance season 5 tour. Matt got these tickets for me for my birthday which was back in June. It was definitely worth the wait. It was so fun to see the top 10 dancers from this last season and some of their dances. Our seats were really good and I really want to go again next season. It was great entertainment, great company, and great fun! Here are some pictures from the night.

Halloween Fun!

We had a fun Halloween. We started off the day by going to a little carnival that all of the schools in the county put together, Karlee enjoyed looking at all of the different costumes but was too little to play any of the games. Later that evening we took our little chicken trick-or-treating to a few houses. She had no idea what was going on but loved that everyone was giving her candy. When we got done trick-or-treating our friends Scott and Jacqueline came over for some soup and bread bowls. Then we headed to Holiday lanes for the tradional Bradshaw Halloween bowling. We have for some reason done it almost every year that we've known each other. Maybe because no one else goes bowling on Halloween. I bowled the game of my life with a 166. We had to take a picture to remember. Matt couldn't handle me beating him so he insisted that we played another round. It was a lot of fun and Karlee was such a good little sport staying up way past her bed time so we could continue in our tradition.

Shopping Cart

Grandma and Grandpa Belcher were in Wisconsin on Karlee's birthday so she got to open her gift when they got back. She loves it. It's a shopping cart. She loves to put things in it and then take them out over and over. She also loves to push it around. Maybe she'll start walking soon with the training she is getting from it.
