No time to blog – – big news! Matt was accepted into Duke University’s Fuqua School of Business and I must whisk him away to a celebratory dinner.  We’ve been holding our breath for weeks and Matt has put soooo much hard work into his applications (thus all my dinners alone recently) over the past 6 months. I’m so happy for him because this was his first choice.  Not to mention, Duke is close to my heart as it’s where my parents went to college and it’s down the road from where I grew up.  I’m overjoyed!!!!!!!!

I’m moving south, yall, where the beers are cheap and sun shines brighter:)

And, it’s fashion friday!

    What can I say but:

    “Dear old Duke thy name we sing…”

    and

    “Nothing could be finer than to be in Carolina!”

    CONGRATULATIONS MATT!
