Official Cougar!
Today was a monumental milestone for education and for our family!!! Sarah accepted her letter of invitation to BYU Provo and also signed up for her housing! We have an official BYU Baby Cougar in our family!
The only down-side (and probably won’t be when she gets there) is that when she went to sign up for housing, Heritage Halls was all filled up! 🙁 She was kind-of bummed because it’s close to campus and they cook their own meals. So she looked at Wyview Park which is still on-campus housing but a little further out (far northwest side of campus, north of the stadium). We made a couple of calls to folks we know and Sarah is ending up rooming with the girlfriend of a son in a family that used to be in our ward and we are great friends with. Sarah has met her before and is excited to get to know her better. The apartment she will be in is pretty nice. It is a 2 bedroom and she’ll have 2 other roommates. We spent a little more money and so Sarah will actually get her own room (which will be nice for her to study and sleep when she wants).
Since it’s a little further away, it will give Sarah a chance to get some good exercise. She’ll either have a bike or walk, and we think that there’s a shuttle for when the weather turns cold. Turns out that this option was even cheaper than Heritage and it’s even newer and nicer.
Yea Sarah!
