LOMA LINDA/ CA TRIP


Loma Linda's dental school is about 30 minutes away from both of our parents houses so it has been pretty high on our list of schools we would consider going to.

It worked out wonderfully that the interview date was the day before my best friend's wedding and  two days before Jordan's brother's wedding because we were already planning on being in CA.
We did have to change a few travel plans but it all worked out great!

We flew from NYC to LA on Tuesday night and enjoyed the relaxing evening and doing LOADS of laundry at my parent's house.
The next morning Jordan had his fastest interview to date at Loma Linda. He loved the campus and was really excited about the school.
I was able to go to my old job at pre school and hang out with the kids. 
I miss that job more than anything.
I love the idea of loma linda strictly because I miss that job so much.



It was a fun afternoon to drive around and look at apartments with my mom and Jordan and just imagine what it would be like to move back to our old stomping grounds. 
Most importantly, we were able to see a movie at our favorite theater and eat their popcorn haha. we are obsessed.

The next day was the pre school's field trip so Jordan and I tagged along to the pumpkin patch.

I got a much needed hair make over. Goodbye long, stringy, dead, blonde ends. Hello, short, dark, HEALTHY hair. I may not love it yet but I am happy to have it healthy and let it re grow. 

That night one of my best friends got married! The wedding was in malibu and it was GORGEOUS!
Jessica made the most beautiful bride! I have NEVER EVER EVER see a more beautiful dress.
Their ceremony was so cute and no one could deny the love they have for each other. It was seriously beautiful!



Jessica and bobby threw quite the party! I was sad not to have Jordan with me but he had to be at his brother's rehearsal dinner. I had my mom and dad with me tho. Third wheeling just like old times!

(My mom and I fight over jessica. I'd say she is just as much my mom's bff as she is mine.)

The next day Jordan's brother got married and we added another Smith to the family!
Jordan may have looked like a penguin in his tux but I was happy to have him as my date for this wedding! I love that he is my date for eternity (even if he is a total goof.. just look at that picture of him)


It was a loved filled few days!

By the time the wedding was over we were more than ready to head home to Utah.
We flew home the next morning and slept SO soundly in our bed!
It was a wild few weeks of traveling and we are so happy to be home for a few weeks.
We have lots to think about but these next few months will be so fun for us as we decide where we will live for the next 4 years!

I am so giddy for dec. 1 (the first official day schools start accepting). Thankfully, Jordan has a few more interviews and I have a few more trips to distract me.

NEXT STOP: SAN FRAN!
