Aggie's aboard!


Well, it looks like it is done! Jace, Jay and I went to the reception for USU in Mesa, AZ. We are so proud of Jace and he is exstatic! During the reception he was able to turn in the remaining paperwork he needed and was awarded a non-resident scholarship to attend USU. I think the reaction on Jace's face when they placed the award in front of him said it all. He was downright shocked. We had expected to go to the reception to discuss residency issues. But with one look at his ACT/SAT scores and transcripts he was handed a scholarship! What a surprise! He hasn't even applied for scholarships yet. Something we planned to do that night but it hasn't been done yet. Residency is no longer an issue but it is still something we could pursue.
Jace received a Utah State University hoodie at the reception. He took it off for bed, but has had it on since. I don't think I have seen him so excited about something in a long time.
Of course, when we looked up the dorm rooms online, he wondered about College life! Jace has never in his life shared a room with someone else. Now, everyone needs to experience sharing a room in their life!

Congratulations to Jace. We are so excited for him. Corbin can't wait to hear all about his college experiences. I think he is ready to go himself.
