Yankees?

Well, we visited two schools last week: University of Louisville and Ohio Northern University. While UofL is a Tier 1 school (rank #98), we would have to pay out-of-state tuition the entire time he is there and he hasn't been offered any scholarships yet. Ohio Northern was really great. We both liked the school and the area tremendously. Here's a recap of the trip, in photos :)


This is crossing a river in AL. I love water shots!


This is us eating at Jack in the Box...our first time there too!


The trip went okay until it started raining on Thursday, as pictured above.




We finally arrive in Ohio!!!


This is our hip to the cool rental...we put some miles on this thing!



We did get a little surprise on our trip...SNOW!!! We checked the weather on Thursday night and it said snow! We figured it would just be light snow, not that much. Well, we were pretty surprised to wake up to 1 1/2 inches and freezing temps! There was so much ice on the sidewalks that it was hard to walk and not slip!


The above picture was taken from our hotel window :)

My sweetie almost froze his hands off to write this on our hood!





In spite of the snow, we did eventually make it to the school. We had very DELUXE accomadations, provided by the school :)This is the law school building. We really liked the campus because it was small like JSU.



This is us in the car on the way home. I think we look so happy here :)
And the final one, us stepping foot in Indiana! We just crossed the bridge in Kentucky, so we didn't go very far into IN, but at least we can say we've been there!



All in all, it was a great trip! The rain on Thursday got us a little down, but the snow more than made up for that! The weather was also great on Friday and Saturday. The best part to me though was just spending so much time with Alan. He is so awesome! I'm so proud of him for working so hard to get into law school and the fact that he's been offered so many scholarships is just incredible!

So what's the update on where we're going? Well, we really liked ONU, but we still haven't seen a lot of the other schools. We are going to visit the ones in AL sometime in the next few weeks, and visit Wyoming in April. Can't wait! This will only be my second time flying so I'm a little nervous :|
