Update #2

Tyler just got his second interview invite to Arizona. He goes on the 15th of February. I think Tyler is a little surprised that he has heard back from two schools. I guess he thought the odds of two interviews from only 6 applications was not a possibility. Good think his wife has all the confidence in the world in him. He is going to do great and I know we will go to wonderful school. The one thing about the school in Arizona is that you are only actually there for 1 year and then you have the choice of 11 different schools to finish at. 3 of the schools are in Arizona and then you have choices of Hawaii, New York, Washington, California, Alabama, S. Caroline, Oregon, or Ohio. It would be interesting to see what we ended up doing with this school.
I tried taking some pictures of the girls on Sunday but I have learned a great lesson: Kids don't do what you want them to do when you want them to do it. But I guess that is why pictures of kids turn out so cute. Annie was more interested in the cap to my lens then she was in me taking pictures of her.
Hallie was into the posing but always seemed to move at the moment I took the picture. And just to let you know, Hallie did all the posing on her own. When I walked in the playroom with my camera she smiled and layed down on the floor to pose. The first one of Hallie the flash was on so it left some over exposed spot on her cheeks but I thought her face was so cute in it that I still had to show you.

That is so cool. I bet he gets interviews for several of the other schools as well! between the two I vote for arizona (because it is closer) good luck Tyler!!!! When does he do the interviews?

if you went to arizona do you automatically get into one of the 11 schools or do you have to go through applications all over again, if you do get to choose totally go to hawaii:), jk that is to far from home. i think its awesome your girls are getting used to being in front of the camera now they wont have super awekward school pics like i did.

The interview days are the 8th and 15th of February. One goes from 8 am to 2 pm and the other goes from 10 am to 4 pm. But that is not all interviewing. They also show them around the school and have a lunch for them.

We automatically get into one of the other schools! Hawaii would be fun but hard too.

Yeah Tyler! Congrats. That's awesome news. And way cute tights on Annie - I'm so excited for all of the cute girl clothes! :)

Let us funnel our joy into some axis/ally battlefield devastation. This Saturday sounds good, preferably in the morning after I get home from the gym. Oh, wait a second, I don't go to the gym (or exercise for that matter). I guess any time is fine.

P.S. Congratulations on #2!

How exciting to have another interview! You guys are going to have some fun decisions to make. I love Annie's leg warmers! Bree you are a good little photograhper! Emma is missing Hallie so bad she has been talking about her a ton. One of the things that made me laugh was when Emma said Hallies Dad calls her Bubba huh mom. Do you care if I let Emma call Hallie tomorrow? Sorry about the novel.

I like the idea of AZ and then after New York!!! Hawaii is so overrated. Who would ever want to live there and go to the beach all day everyday. You wouldn't even be able to use your list of fun indoor winter activities. jk Good luck!
