Henderson or Bust!

It is official. We are going to Henderson for SURE. We received the kick in the pants email from Phoenix campus this afternoon. Another big fat NO!

But we are okay. We are starting the arduous process of finding a home in Henderson and are excited and oh so nervous to take a ride on the crazy train called medical school. Add to the mix a pregnancy that is due in November and it only gets better! Right?!

*Once my mom gets her package in the mail I will post more details on the pregnancy. I promise. Many thanks on the congrats so far. We are excited too!

Please don't leave me!!!! At least promise to come back when you're done :)

Candace said...

OH YES, it's gonna be quite the "crazy train"!!! BUT one that you can still be as happy as ever riding. :)

Kim said...

What a bummer! Jen and I will have to come and visit after you have your baby! It will be fun! I am sad that we won't be able to do our cousin dinners once you are gone. Whenever you visit we will have to get together for sure!! I am excited to hear more details about the pregnancy!!!

Rebecca said...

I'm with Mary. I'm having Heather withdrawals already! Although, it must feel so good to have your full plan underway. I'm so happy for you!

What a year this will be for you guys! I'm also very sad to see you leave and I have to agree with Wendy...please come back!!!

Krystal said...

I have total mixed feelings about this. I'm so excited for you guys to start med. school but do you really have to move out of state? Super sad for me. Oh well I have never really been to Nevada, so I'm already planning a road trip.

Sorry about the rejection from Phoenix. They did it in an email??? I always thought they sent formal letters. How lame. Well...I am excited for you guys. Like I said I always wanted to live somewhere else for a short time, but never had the opportunity. Hope you find a cute place to live shortly!

Can't wait to hear more about your pregnancy!

Terina said...

So sad, for me, so happy for you guys!!!

Feelin' fine in 2009!!!! Way to go Gunnells! You are scorin' big this year and I am so happy for you.

Mandi said...

Dang! My sidebar still says you haven't posted for three weeks so it's a good thing I decided to check anyway! I am soooooo happy for you and your pregnancy!!!!! I am so looking forward to hearing more details. The Lord definitely remembered Heather (although I don't think He ever forgot). I am so happy I'm seriously tearing up here. . . And Henderson? Sad to move, but as long as you and Phil are having a baby - who cares! Right?

Hey Heather,

My sister in law lives in Henderson. (Rick's sister) Marie Osmond is in their ward. (weird huh!) Her husband is finishing his residency there. If you need help, I can get you two in contact with each other. They are a great family. You'd love them.

P.S. I'm so quietly excited for you I can't stand it! Congrats again and again. I can't wait to hear your mom's reaction!

Kami Milliron said...

Well, Phoenix is lame anyway ; )

Congrats on Henderson ! I have a good friend who is there with her Husband. He just finished school and is on to his residency. Let me know if you need a friend, I will let her know to look you up. You or Phil might know her and her husband. They're names are Jami McGhan and Art Hatch.

Brittney Blount said...

Renee said...

Good luck with everything from finding a house to renting your current house. Anything is possible with the Lords help. You have been blessed in so many ways. I can't wait for your mom to get her package to get more info on your pregancy.

Sounds like a fun adventure! A chance to grow, right?

I'm excited for all of your fun changes. What a big year for you guys! Hopefully there will be a lot of other fun couples in your medical class that you can lean on for support and good times.

So excited for your pregnancy!

Is the darn mailman walking your mom's package to UT or what? Seriously can't wait for the details. Congrat, I am so happy for you.

Heather, you hit the jackpot! Pregnancy and grad school :) We are moving to Henderson this summer for David's pharmacy school, so I am certain we will bump shoulders a time or two. Looking forward to it. Fantastic news, congratulations!

As long as you keep your blog going I won't miss you. But I do feel very sorry that your friends in Phoenix will be without you. But Nevada is very close, right?
